영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Every spring, our school holds an art exhibition in the main hallway, and this year I finally submitted a painting of my own. For weeks, I compared my work to my classmates' drawings and felt sure that mine was not good enough ①to hang beside theirs. My art teacher noticed my hesitation and said something I did not expect: an exhibition is not a contest ②finding the single best picture, but a chance to show how differently people see the same world. On the morning the paintings ③went up, I walked past dozens of styles, from careful realistic portraits to messy, colorful abstractions, and none of them looked like mine. Instead of feeling embarrassed, I found myself curious about why each artist ④had made certain choices. Standing in that crowded hallway, I finally understood that the exhibition's real purpose was not to rank the paintings, but ⑤to let students discover how many different perspectives could exist in a single shared space.

Good afternoon, everyone! Our town ①invites students to join a special tree-planting volunteer day next month. This event ②aim to restore a small forest damaged by last year's fire near the river. Volunteers will meet at the community center at nine in the morning and travel together by bus. Please wear old clothes and shoes ③that you do not mind getting dirty during the activity. Each participant will plant three young trees, ④guided by experienced forest rangers throughout the morning. For example, rangers will show volunteers how to dig proper holes without harming the tree roots. In contrast, planting too shallowly often causes young trees to die within a few months. Therefore, careful instructions must be followed closely by every volunteer. Water and snacks, ⑤prepared by the town office, will be provided for free.

When an image-generating program ①produced a strikingly detailed painting in the exact style of a well-known illustrator within seconds, my art club spent an entire meeting arguing about what it actually meant for artists. Some members felt excited, ②imagining the software as a helpful tool that could speed up brainstorming or generate quick backgrounds for their comics. Others worried that the program had been trained on thousands of real illustrations ③scraped from the internet without the original artists' permission, meaning the tool's impressive results were quietly built on other people's uncredited labor. A few pointed out that the final image, however skillful it ④looked, reflected no personal memory, struggle, or intention, only patterns learned from existing pictures. The debate never reached a clear conclusion, but it made me realize that questions about creativity now involve not just how a picture looks, but where it actually ⑤come from and who deserves credit for it.

Building a career portfolio is a great way ①to track your growth throughout high school. A portfolio is simply a collection of your achievements, activities, and reflections. Start by ②choose a format, such as a folder, a notebook, or a digital file. Next, include items ③that show your interests and skills, such as club activities and volunteer work. For each item, write a short reflection explaining what you learned. A well-organized portfolio not only ④helps you apply for programs or scholarships, but it also ⑤helps you understand your own growth over time.

As artificial intelligence becomes part of everyday life, entirely new job titles are ①appearing in the workplace. Prompt engineers design effective instructions that help AI programs produce ②accurate and useful results. AI ethics officers examine whether a company's technology treats users fairly and avoids harmful bias. These jobs did not exist even ten years ago, yet they are growing ③slowly across many industries. Interestingly, most of these new roles require not only technical knowledge but also strong communication and ethical ④judgment. Success in an AI-driven future will depend less on competing with machines and more on developing uniquely human skills that machines still cannot easily ⑤replace.

On the first day of our improv theater workshop, the instructor gave us a rule that seemed impossible to follow: never say no to whatever another performer suggests. If a scene partner claimed the empty classroom was actually a submarine, our job was to accept that fact instantly and build on it, rather than correcting or rejecting the idea. I found this terrifying at first, since improv offers no script to hide behind and no time to plan a clever line in advance. Over several weeks, though, I noticed that _______________. The instructor explained that improv is not really about being naturally quick-witted, but about trusting a partner's idea enough to build on it rather than protecting your own. That single lesson, oddly, changed how carefully I listened even in ordinary conversations.

Many English teachers now ask students to write a short review after finishing a book, rather than simply filling out a reading log. At first, students often complain that summarizing a plot is enough work already. However, a review requires something a summary does not: a clear judgment supported by specific evidence from the text. To defend an opinion about a character or a theme, _______________. Teachers who assign reviews regularly report that their students remember plot details more accurately and discuss characters' motivations more confidently than students who only summarize.

More and more teenagers today dream of starting their own business someday. Some students design and sell handmade jewelry online, while others create simple mobile apps as a hobby. Starting a small business also teaches skills that traditional classes rarely offer, such as managing money, marketing a product, and handling customer complaints. However, young entrepreneurs face real challenges too, and mistakes can feel discouraging at first. Still, most teen entrepreneurs say that ___________. For this reason, schools are beginning to offer entrepreneurship clubs, giving students a safe space to test their business ideas.

When a classmate began writing her diary entries in elaborate, flowing calligraphy instead of ordinary handwriting, I assumed she was simply trying to make her notebook look decorative. (A) Every stroke has to be planned before the pen touches the paper, since a brush pen cannot be casually corrected once ink has already spread across the page. (B) Curious, I asked her to teach me one afternoon, and I quickly discovered that calligraphy demands far more patience than I had expected. (C) She told me that slowing her hand down to this deliberate pace actually helped her think more clearly, and what began as decoration for her gradually became a kind of meditation.

Many students wonder why club activities matter so much for their school life record, a document that summarizes what a student did during each semester. (A) For example, a student who organized a club exhibition might be described as someone who showed strong leadership and creativity. These notes are not simply a list of activities; they explain the process behind each achievement. (B) Whenever students take part in a club, their teacher writes a short note describing what role they played and how they grew. (C) Therefore, admissions officers at universities read the record carefully to understand a student's genuine interests, not just their grades. In contrast, a club membership with no real participation rarely leaves a meaningful impression. This is why teachers encourage students to take an active role rather than joining a club only for its name.
