영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Jimin joined the school band club in March, but she ①had never performed before an audience. The club's first concert was only two weeks away, and everyone felt nervous. During practice, her hands shook whenever the song reached the chorus, and she kept missing the same chord. Instead of laughing at her mistakes, the other members waited patiently and ②playing the section again with her. The drummer, Suho, suggested that she ③focus on just one part at a time. Slowly, her fingers grew more confident, and the chord ④that once felt impossible began to feel natural. The club practiced until the melody sounded smooth the night before the concert. When Jimin walked onto the stage, she thought of her friends' patience instead of her fear. The audience clapped warmly, and she realized ⑤her club's support had made the difference.

When someone's heart suddenly stops beating, the brain begins ①to suffer damage within minutes unless blood keeps circulating, which is why the actions taken by an ordinary bystander before paramedics arrive can matter as much as the treatment given at the hospital. Studies show that a person who ②receives CPR immediately from someone nearby is far more likely to survive than one who waits for professional help to arrive. Despite this, many people hesitate to start chest compressions, ③worried that they might break a rib or make the situation worse. Medical instructors respond to this fear: a cracked rib heals, but a brain ④depriving of oxygen for too long does not. Modern CPR training has also been simplified, focusing on firm, rhythmic chest compressions rather than the more complicated combination of breaths and compressions once required, ⑤making the skill easier for ordinary students to learn and remember under pressure.

Students who read many books across many different subjects often develop a habit that quieter learners sometimes ①lack: the habit of comparing new information with what they already know. A student who has read about ancient wars, ocean ecosystems, and modern economics can more easily ②notice when two different subjects share a similar pattern. This kind of connection-making is closely related to what psychologists call critical thinking, since seeing a familiar pattern in an unfamiliar topic allows a person to ask ③sharper questions instead of accepting new information at face value. Extensive reading also builds a large mental library of examples, which makes it ④harder to evaluate whether a new claim sounds reasonable or exaggerated. Teachers often notice that widely read students argue more carefully, supporting their opinions with ⑤specific examples rather than vague generalizations.

Technology has changed the way many jobs are performed today. (A) As a result, workers now need to keep learning new tools throughout their careers. (B) A graphic designer, for instance, must understand digital software that did not exist twenty years ago. (C) Machines and computer programs now handle tasks once done entirely by people.

Last Saturday, Jimin visited the recycling center near her apartment with her science class. (A) She had expected the place to be dirty and unpleasant, but the center looked clean and well organized. A worker named Mr. Park guided the students through each area, explaining how bottles, cans, and paper were sorted. (B) He showed them a machine that crushed plastic bottles into small pieces before they were sent to factories. Jimin was surprised to learn that mixed trash, thrown into the wrong bin, often ruined an entire batch of recyclables. (C) For example, one greasy pizza box could contaminate a whole pile of clean paper. However, when items were sorted correctly, they could be reused many times, almost like ingredients in a favorite recipe. Walking home, Jimin realized that her small effort at home truly mattered. She decided to sort her family's trash more carefully.

Every spring, the art club at Sejong High School creates one large mural together instead of individual paintings. The process begins with a session where members suggest themes and vote on their favorite idea. (A) Therefore, members regularly step back to compare their section with the rest of the mural. After several weekends, the teams combine their sections into a single image, and the finished mural is displayed near the entrance. (B) Once a theme is chosen, the club divides into small teams, each responsible for one section of the wall. One team sketches the outline while another mixes colors to match the design. (C) Communication becomes essential at this stage, since each section must connect smoothly with the ones beside it. If one team paints too dark a shade, the whole picture can look unbalanced.

주어진 문장: Even during lunchtime, however, a few members quietly check the equipment for the next broadcast. Most students only see the final result, a few smooth minutes each morning. Behind that short program, however, broadcasting club members follow a busy daily routine. ① Members arrive at school thirty minutes earlier than other students to prepare the studio. They check the microphones, the cameras, and the lighting before anyone else arrives. ② Meanwhile, the script team finalizes the news script that was written the night before. Once everything is ready, the anchors practice their lines one last time. ③ At exactly eight o'clock, the red light turns on, and the live broadcast begins. During class hours, however, most members return to their regular classroom lessons like everyone else. ④ After school, the club meets again to review that morning's recording and discuss any mistakes. ⑤ Through this daily routine, members slowly learn skills such as teamwork and quick thinking under pressure.

주어진 문장: For example, small button batteries from watches and toys can also be dropped in the box. Good morning, residents of Green Apartment! We would like to introduce a simple way to protect our environment. Used batteries, which contain harmful chemicals, should never be thrown away with regular trash. ① If these chemicals leak into the soil, they can pollute water and harm plants. ② Therefore, our building has installed a special collection box for used batteries near the main entrance. ③ Please place your old batteries inside this box instead of the trash can. ④ The box, which is emptied every month, is easy for anyone to use. ⑤ However, batteries that are still working should not be thrown away at all. We appreciate your effort to keep our neighborhood clean and safe. Thank you for your cooperation and kindness.

This wasted electricity, though invisible, still comes from real power plants that burn fuel. Turning off lights when you leave a room seems like a tiny action, but it saves more energy than most people expect. ① Every light left on in an empty room wastes electricity that could have powered something useful elsewhere. ② For example, a single classroom light left on overnight can waste enough energy to charge dozens of phones. This habit is similar to leaving a faucet running while you brush your teeth, where water flows out for no reason. ③ Both actions seem harmless in the moment, but they add up to a serious waste over time. Some students argue that a single light does not make much difference. ④ However, when an entire school forms this habit together, the total amount of saved energy becomes significant. ⑤ Therefore, this small daily habit can create a surprisingly large positive effect for the whole planet.
