문제 1

Riding a bicycle is one of the most popular ways for teenagers ①to get around, yet many students still skip the one piece of equipment that could save their life: the helmet. Some argue that a short trip to a nearby store does not require any special protection, since the risk of a serious accident ②feels distant and unlikely. However, most bicycle accidents happen close to home, on familiar streets where riders feel too comfortable ③expecting danger. A sudden pothole, a car door ④opening without warning, or a patch of gravel can throw even an experienced cyclist off balance in an instant. Wearing a helmet does not prevent a fall, but it dramatically reduces the chance of a serious head injury ⑤when one occurs.

문제 2

Earthquakes strike without any warning, which is exactly why the seconds immediately after the shaking begins ①matters more than any other moment in an emergency. Safety experts consistently teach the same three steps: drop to the ground, take cover under sturdy furniture, and hold on until the shaking ②stops. Many people instinctively want to run outside during a quake, ③imagining that open space is always safer than a building. Furniture that seems merely inconvenient during a fire drill, such as a heavy desk, becomes a lifesaving shield when the ceiling above begins ④to crack. After the shaking stops, experts warn that the greatest remaining danger is often a damaged structure rather than a second earthquake, so calmly checking for hazards before moving is just as important as ⑤reacting quickly at the first tremor.

문제 3

Yesterday, I visited my school's career counselor because I felt ①excited about my future. I told her that I enjoyed both science and art, but I could not decide which subject to pursue. She listened ②carefully and then asked me a simple question: what activities make me lose track of time? I answered that designing posters for school events always felt ③exciting. She smiled and said that this kind of clue often ④reveals a genuine interest, more than any test score can. Our short conversation gave me a ⑤clearer sense of direction than weeks of worrying alone had.

문제 4

For the first week, she woke up early and ran ①happily, feeling proud of her new habit. However, after a few cold mornings, she began oversleeping, and soon she stopped running altogether, which made her feel ②confident about her progress. By February, she felt disappointed and believed she simply lacked willpower. They realized that running before sunrise in freezing weather had been too ③difficult to maintain. So Minji changed her plan and decided to run after school instead, when the weather was ④warmer and she had more energy. She kept running three times a week, and by spring, she had grown much stronger and more ⑤positive.

문제 5

During exam season last year, our school counselor introduced a weekly drop-in session where students could paint freely for thirty minutes without any instructions or grading. (A) I attended mostly out of curiosity, expecting a relaxing but ultimately pointless activity, since I have never considered myself artistically talented. (B) To my surprise, filling a blank page with color, without worrying whether the result looked good, left me noticeably calmer than scrolling through my phone during the same amount of free time. (C) The counselor explained that art therapy does not aim to produce impressive paintings; it simply gives people a way to express feelings that are difficult to put into words.

문제 6

A weekend camping trip promises fresh air and a break from screens, but the same wilderness that makes camping appealing also removes many of the safety nets people rely on without noticing, such as nearby hospitals or cell phone signal. (A) Experienced campers also stress the importance of checking a weather forecast before leaving, since a clear evening sky offers no guarantee against a sudden storm later that night. (B) One of the most overlooked risks is setting up a tent too close to a campfire, since a sudden gust of wind can carry a spark onto dry fabric faster than anyone expects. (C) Food storage is another area where casual habits create danger: leaving snacks inside a tent, rather than in a sealed container away from the sleeping area, can attract wildlife looking for food.

문제 7

This eagerness to get moving is understandable, but it can come at a real physical cost. 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. ( ① ) 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 rather than minutes. ( ② ) Coaches often compare an unwarmed muscle to a cold rubber band that snaps rather than stretches under sudden pressure. ( ③ ) 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 on a gym floor or an outdoor field. ( ④ ) Reporting a minor pain immediately, rather than pushing through it to finish a game, also prevents a small issue from becoming a repeated injury that lingers for an entire season. ( ⑤ )

문제 8

Watching myself on the recording afterward was even more uncomfortable than facing the camera live. Last month, I attended a three-day career camp during summer vacation. ( ① ) On the first day, I chose the broadcasting workshop, where students practiced writing short news scripts and reading them in front of a camera. ( ② ) It was harder than I expected, since staying calm while a camera recorded my every move felt strange at first. ( ③ ) By the second day, however, I began to enjoy the challenge, and my confidence grew with each attempt. ( ④ ) The instructors, who all had real broadcasting experience, gave detailed feedback rather than simple praise, which helped us improve quickly. ( ⑤ ) On the final day, each team presented a short news segment to the entire camp.

문제 9

This is because the temperature inside a car can rise to a dangerous level within minutes. Summer heat can be just as dangerous for pets as it is for people. ( ① ) First, always provide plenty of fresh water, and change it several times a day to keep it cool. ( ② ) Second, avoid walking your dog during the hottest hours, since hot pavement can burn sensitive paws. ( ③ ) Make sure your pet has access to a shaded or air-conditioned area at all times. ( ④ ) If your pet seems unusually tired or refuses to move, contact a veterinarian right away. Most importantly, never leave a pet alone in a parked car, even for a few minutes. ( ⑤ ) Following these guidelines will help your pet stay safe this summer.

문제 10

Similar changes are taking place in other fields as well. As technology develops rapidly, many new jobs are appearing that did not exist a decade ago. ( ① ) Data analysts, for example, help companies make decisions based on huge amounts of information. ( ② ) Renewable energy technicians install and repair solar panels and wind turbines, meeting the growing demand for clean power. ( ③ ) These emerging jobs share one common feature: they combine technical skill with the ability to solve real-world problems. ( ④ ) Experts predict that future workers will need to keep learning new skills throughout their careers, since technology continues to change so quickly. ( ⑤ ) For students planning their future, staying curious and adaptable may matter more than a single fixed career path.
