영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

When a classmate began writing her diary entries in elaborate, flowing calligraphy instead of ordinary handwriting, I ①assumed she was simply trying to make her notebook look decorative. Curious, I asked her to teach me one afternoon, and I quickly ②discovered that calligraphy demands far more patience than I had expected. Every stroke has to be planned before the pen touches the paper, since a brush pen cannot be ③casually corrected once ink has already spread across the page. She told me that slowing her hand down to this deliberate pace actually helped her think more clearly, because rushing through a sentence in calligraphy simply was not physically ④possible. What began as decoration for her gradually became a kind of meditation, a rare part of her day when she could not multitask or ⑤hurrying.

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.

Many English teachers now ask students ①to 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, so writing an opinion on top of that ②feels unnecessary. However, a review requires something a summary does not: a clear judgment ③supported by specific evidence from the text. To defend an opinion about a character or a theme, students must return to the book and ④finding exact passages that support their view. This process forces readers to notice details they might have skipped during a first, quick reading. 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, which shows that writing a review ⑤helps them read more carefully.

Every light ①left on in an empty room wastes electricity that could have powered something useful elsewhere. For example, a single classroom light left on overnight can waste enough energy ②to charge dozens of phones. This habit is similar to ③leave a faucet running while you brush your teeth, where water flows out for no reason. However, when an entire school ④forms this habit together, the total amount of ⑤saved energy becomes significant.

Last spring, Mina joined the school environmental club because she wanted to make a difference. At first, she felt nervous about speaking in front of the other members. However, the club leader, who had been recycling for years, welcomed her warmly. Every Friday, the members walked around the school picking up trash near the playground. Mina soon realized that this weekly habit was like watering a small plant every day. For example, a single plastic bottle left outside could take hundreds of years to disappear. Therefore, the club decided to place clear recycling bins in every classroom. In contrast to her early doubts, Mina _______________. Her classmates started separating cans and paper without being reminded by teachers. By the end of the semester, Mina had become an active member.

Physical education class often feels like the one period of the day when students can finally move freely, which sometimes leads them to skip the warm-up routine that teachers insist on before any real activity begins. (A) Beyond warming up, wearing proper footwear matters more than most students realize; running in worn-out sneakers with little grip left on the sole significantly raises the chance of a twisted ankle. (B) Coaches often compare an unwarmed muscle to a cold rubber band that snaps rather than stretches under sudden pressure. (C) Cold muscles, however, are noticeably less flexible than warmed ones, and stretching a stiff hamstring or ankle too quickly can cause a strain that keeps a student off the field for weeks.

Teaching children to be cautious around strangers used to rely mainly on a single blunt warning: never talk to people you do not know. (A) A more effective approach focuses on specific situations rather than people in general, teaching children to recognize behavior that feels wrong, such as an adult asking a child to keep a secret from parents. (B) Child safety experts now argue that this advice is too simple to be useful, since most children will inevitably need to interact with unfamiliar adults. (C) Role-playing these scenarios in advance helps children respond quickly under pressure, rather than freezing because the situation feels unfamiliar and confusing.

주어진 문장: In contrast, throwing away useful items increases the amount of trash that ends up in landfills. Many people throw away items that they no longer need. ① However, some students have started to buy and sell used goods instead of throwing them away. ② This practice, often called secondhand trading, takes place at flea markets or through simple online apps. When you buy a secondhand book or a used bicycle, you save money and reduce waste at the same time. For example, a jacket that no longer fits your older sibling can become a treasure for someone else. Giving an old item to a new owner is like giving a toy a second life. ③ Therefore, secondhand trading, which requires little effort, protects both your wallet and the environment. ④ Small choices like this can make a big difference for our planet. ⑤

It is also important to wear bright or reflective clothing so that drivers can see you clearly. Riding a bicycle is a great way to stay active during summer vacation, but safety should always come first. ( ① ) Before you ride, check that your tires are properly inflated and your brakes are working well. ( ② ) Wearing a helmet is essential, since it can prevent serious head injuries in an accident. ( ③ ) Riders should always follow traffic signals and ride in the same direction as traffic, never against it. ( ④ ) In addition, keep both hands on the handlebars and avoid using your phone while riding. ( ⑤ ) Carrying a water bottle is wise, since dehydration can cause dizziness and affect your balance.

주어진 문장: This reason feels comfortable at first, especially in a new school. Choosing the right club can shape how a student feels about school life. Many first-graders join a club simply because their friends are joining it. ① However, experts suggest that personal interest should always come before friendship. A club that matches your interest keeps you motivated during a busy exam period. ② It also helps to think about how much time each club actually requires. Some clubs meet only once a week, while others practice almost every day. ③ Skill level matters too, since a few clubs accept only experienced students. For this reason, most schools allow a short trial period before a final decision. ④ During this period, new members can attend meetings without officially signing up. ⑤ In the end, a good club should feel like a comfortable break from academic pressure.
