영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Accidents rarely wait for a doctor ①to be nearby, which is why basic first aid knowledge can make a critical difference in the first few minutes after an injury occurs. Many students assume that only professionals should touch an injured person, ②fearing that any mistake might make things worse. In reality, a few simple actions, such as applying steady pressure to a bleeding wound or keeping an unconscious person's airway clear, can prevent a minor injury from ③becoming a life-threatening one. Waiting passively for an ambulance, rather than doing anything at all, ④are often the more dangerous choice, since every minute without basic care allows a treatable injury to worsen. Of course, first aid is never a substitute for professional medical treatment, and it ⑤should never replace an emergency call.

My grandmother keeps a wooden cabinet filled with tiny furniture, each piece no larger than a fingernail, that she has been building for over a decade as a miniature hobby. When I first saw the cabinet, I assumed the appeal was simply how ①impressively small and precise the pieces looked. Talking with her while she worked, though, I learned that the real challenge lies in imagining an entire, believable world at a scale the eye can barely process, deciding where a miniature family might set down a teacup or leave a chair pulled slightly away from the table. She once spent three weekends carving a single tiny bookshelf, only to leave two of its shelves deliberately ②empty, explaining that a completely full room would look ③lived-in rather than staged. That small decision taught me that miniature craft is not primarily about ④precision, but about convincingly imagining an ordinary life small enough to fit inside a ⑤shoebox.

Heatstroke happens when the body's temperature rises too ①high and cannot cool itself down. This condition can be completely ②harmless if it is not treated quickly. Drinking plenty of water helps keep your body ③cool. Wearing light, loose clothing also helps ④release heat from your skin. If you notice symptoms such as dizziness, you should move to a shaded place ⑤immediately.

Last year our art club received a set of digital drawing tablets, and I assumed switching from paper would feel like cheating, since a screen seemed to remove the physical struggle of real drawing. After a few weeks of practice, though, I noticed the tablet demanded a ①different kind of skill rather than an easier one. Because there is no paper texture to guide the pen, beginners often press too ②lightly or draw shaky lines until their hand adjusts to the smooth glass surface. What the tablet does offer is the freedom to undo a mistake instantly and experiment with colors without wasting a single sheet of paper, which encourages artists to take ③risks they might avoid with a permanent ink pen. Several club members who once avoided painting because they feared ruining their work now try ④bold new styles daily. The tool changed, but the patience and observation required to create something meaningful stayed exactly the ⑤same.

Many people throw away items that they no longer need. However, some students have started to buy and sell used goods instead of throwing them away. 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 ①save 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. In contrast, throwing away useful items ②decreases the amount of trash that ends up in landfills. Therefore, secondhand trading, which requires ③little effort, protects both your ④wallet and the environment. Small choices like this can make a ⑤big difference for our planet.

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 to hang beside theirs. My art teacher noticed my hesitation and said something I did not expect: _______________. On the morning the paintings went up, I walked past dozens of styles, from careful realistic portraits to messy, colorful abstractions, and none of them looked like mine. Standing in that crowded hallway, I finally understood that the exhibition's real purpose was not to rank the paintings, but to let students discover how many different perspectives could exist in a single shared space.

During the rainy season, umbrellas and raincoats become essential items for daily life. However, many people forget to take care of them properly, which ___________. After using a wet umbrella, let it dry fully before folding it again, since storing a damp umbrella in a closed bag can cause mold and a bad smell.

The Hillside Community Center is recruiting student volunteers for its summer programs. (A) No prior experience is necessary, since training will be provided on the first day.

Career aptitude tests come in many different forms today, and schools use them for various purposes. (A) Some tests focus on personality, asking students how they usually react in different situations. (B) Because of this variety, it is important to understand what each test actually measures before taking it. (C) Other tests focus on specific skills, such as logical thinking or verbal ability.

Every October, Greenfield High School holds a festival that gives every club a chance to shine. This year's festival will take place on October 15th, running from nine in the morning until four in the afternoon. (A) For example, the science club will present simple experiments that are both safe and exciting to watch. The art club, meanwhile, will display paintings that members have created throughout the semester. (B) First, clubs that want to run a booth must apply to the student council by October 1st, since space in the gym is limited. (C) In addition, the cooking club plans to sell snacks prepared by its own members, and all the profits will be donated to a local shelter. Because many visitors are expected, teachers will supervise each booth carefully to keep students safe. Anyone curious about club life is warmly encouraged to visit and enjoy the festival.
