영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

For most of the twentieth century, a library was simply a quiet room full of books, and visitors were expected ①to stay silent while they searched the shelves. Today, many public libraries look completely different. Alongside the usual shelves, you might find group study rooms, comfortable sofas for reading, computer labs, and even small recording studios for podcasts. Librarians say this change ②did not happen by accident. As more information moved online, fewer people ③needing a library simply to find facts, so librarians began asking what their communities actually needed instead. The answer, in many neighborhoods, turned out ④to be space itself: a warm, free place where students could study together, job seekers could print a resume, and children could attend a story hour. Librarians respond that reading and gathering have always belonged together, and that a library survives only by ⑤changing with its readers.

Are you ①curious about capturing special moments around our school? The Photography Club is now looking for new members for this semester. We meet every Wednesday afternoon in Room 204, right after regular classes end. No experience is ②required, since senior members always teach the basics of using a camera. Each month, we choose a simple theme and take pictures together around the campus. At the end of the semester, we hold a small exhibition to share our ③favorite photos. Members are also ④expected to bring their own camera or smartphone to every meeting. If you enjoy taking pictures or want to try something new, please visit our booth this Friday. Feel free to ask any ⑤former member if you have questions about joining.

My cousin, who has never taken a single music lesson, recently used a composing app on her phone to write a short song for her friend's birthday video. Watching her work, I realized the app ①worsened much of the technical difficulty that used to stop beginners from composing at all, automatically keeping her melody in key and suggesting chords that matched the mood she selected. What the app could not do, however, was decide which four notes actually felt right for the opening line, or when a ②pause said more than another note would have. She spent nearly an hour ③adjusting a single short phrase until it matched the feeling she wanted to capture, deleting and replaying it dozens of times. Watching her patient trial and error, I understood that these tools ④lower the technical barrier to making music, but they do not remove the very human task of deciding what a piece of music is actually trying to ⑤say.

At first, Minjun thought the campaign sounded ①boring and unnecessary for someone like him. However, his teacher explained that leftover food thrown away every day adds up to a ②huge amount of waste. This comparison ③surprised Minjun because he had never thought about food that way before. Within a few weeks, his tray was almost always ④full, and he felt ⑤proud of the change.

Last spring, Mina joined the school environmental club because she wanted to make a difference. At first, she felt ①nervous about speaking in front of the other members. However, the club leader, who had been recycling for years, welcomed her ②warmly. 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 ③disappear. Therefore, the club decided to place clear recycling bins in every classroom. In contrast to her early doubts, Mina began to feel ④proud of the changes she noticed. Her classmates ⑤stopped separating cans and paper without being reminded by teachers. By the end of the semester, Mina had become an active member.

Turning off lights when you leave a room seems like a tiny action, but _______________. Every light left 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 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. 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. However, when an entire school forms this habit together, the total amount of saved energy becomes significant. Therefore, this small daily habit can create a surprisingly large positive effect for the whole planet.

Every day, we leave behind marks of the gases that warm our planet, much like footprints left in wet sand. These marks, often called our carbon footprint, _______________. Many students think that only large factories create these marks, but ordinary habits at home also matter greatly. For example, turning off lights when leaving a room reduces the energy that power plants must produce. Walking or biking to school instead of riding in a car also lowers the amount of gas released into the air. In contrast, leaving devices plugged in all night quietly increases our footprint without our notice. Therefore, students who practice these simple habits regularly can shrink their footprint significantly. Small daily choices, repeated over time, become powerful tools for protecting the environment we all share.

Attention, students! Our school festival is going green this year, and we truly need your help. This event aims to reduce the disposable waste that usually piles up during the celebration. First, _______________. Second, each booth should use reusable decorations rather than paper banners that get thrown away within hours. Students who join as Green Helpers will manage the recycling stations, sorting cans, bottles, and paper carefully all day long. Therefore, everyone's small cooperation will directly lower the amount of trash sent to the landfill. However, single-use plastic bags are strictly prohibited at every booth this year. If your booth needs supplies, please contact the student council office before Friday. Let us work together to create a festival that is both fun and eco-friendly.

Yuna bought a disposable coffee cup every morning on her way to school. She never thought about where those cups ended up after she threw them away. One day, her science teacher showed the class a photo of a beach covered with plastic cups and bottles. Yuna felt shocked because she realized _______________. That evening, she found an old tumbler hidden in a kitchen drawer and decided to use it every day. At first, carrying the tumbler felt inconvenient, and she often forgot to bring it to school. However, she kept a reminder note on her bag, which helped her remember it each morning. Within a month, using the tumbler had become as natural as brushing her teeth. Her friends noticed the change and asked where she had bought the tumbler.

주어진 문장: No experience is necessary, so anyone who cares about nature is welcome to join. Good afternoon, everyone! Our town invites students to join a special tree-planting volunteer day next month. ① This event aims to restore a small forest damaged by last year's fire near the river. ② Volunteers will meet at the community center at nine in the morning and travel together by bus. Please wear old clothes and shoes that you do not mind getting dirty during the activity. ③ Each participant will plant three young trees, guided by experienced forest rangers throughout the morning. For example, rangers will show volunteers how to dig proper holes without harming the tree roots. ④ 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. ⑤ Water and snacks, prepared by the town office, will be provided for free. Students interested in joining should register online before next Wednesday.
