문제 1

Have you ever wondered why some people stay motivated while others give up quickly? The answer often lies in whether they have a clear goal. When people have no specific goal, they usually feel confused about where ①to start, and their interest fades within days. For example, a student who simply decides ②to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too vague. In contrast, a student who sets a clear goal, such as raising an English score by ten points, ③knows exactly what to do every day. This clarity creates strong motivation because the brain naturally ④focus on a clear target. A clear goal also makes progress easy to measure, and noticing small improvements keeps people ⑤encouraged to continue.

문제 2

Last month, our class began practicing for the school choir contest, but rehearsals quickly turned ①tense. Minji, who had the loudest voice, kept correcting other members in the middle of songs. Several students felt ②hurt and began skipping practice, saying it felt more like criticism than teamwork. Our music teacher noticed the empty seats and asked what was happening. Minji explained that she only wanted the group to sound perfect. However, Junho said her tone made people afraid to sing at all. After an ③awkward silence, Minji admitted she had never noticed how her words affected others. So the class tried something new: each member shared one compliment before rehearsal began. Slowly, the tension ④faded and attendance returned to normal. On the day of the contest, the choir sang together with real ⑤doubt and earned second place.

문제 3

Our school's book club, Page Turners, meets every Wednesday to discuss a book the members chose. At the start of each month, students suggest titles and vote to pick one. This way, everyone feels some ①indifference over what the club reads next. Before each meeting, members read several chapters and prepare a few questions. During the meeting, the leader opens discussion by asking a question about the story's main idea. Then members take turns sharing their opinions, even when they disagree with each other. For example, students once argued for a long time about a character's ②difficult choice. Such debates, though sometimes ③loud, help members understand ④different points of view. At the end of the semester, the club holds an event to recommend favorite books. Through this process, reading becomes less like homework and more like a ⑤shared conversation.

문제 6

주어진 문장: For this reason, small differences in color or style can quickly become noticeable across the whole wall. Every spring, the art club at Sejong High School creates one large mural together instead of individual paintings. ( ① ) The process begins with a session where members suggest themes and vote on their favorite idea. ( ② ) 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. ( ③ ) 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. ( ④ ) Therefore, members regularly step back to compare their section with the rest of the mural. ( ⑤ ) After several weekends, the teams combine their sections into a single image. The finished mural is displayed near the entrance, reminding everyone what cooperation can achieve.

문제 7

주어진 문장: She worried that the other members might already know each other well. 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. ① However, the club leader, who had been recycling for years, welcomed her warmly. ② 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. ③ 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. ④ In contrast to her early doubts, Mina began to feel proud of the changes she noticed. Her classmates started separating cans and paper without being reminded by teachers. ⑤ By the end of the semester, Mina had become an active member.

주어진 문장: Thanks to her call, I felt understood and ready to try again. On the first day of winter break, my friend Yuna and I sat in a cafe and talked about the new year ahead.

( ② ) Yuna wanted to improve her English speaking, while I wanted to wake up earlier every morning. ( ③ ) We agreed to text each other every night to report what we had done that day. ( ④ ) At first, it felt exciting, but after two weeks, I began to feel tired and wanted to quit. Yuna noticed my short replies and called me instead of just texting. She reminded me why I had chosen this goal in the first place. ( ⑤ ) Because we supported each other through difficult moments, both of us successfully reached our goals by spring.

문제 9

주어진 문장: This same routine has continued every week since the project began in March. The science club at Hanul High School is running a project called "Grow Light." It tests how different colors of light affect plant growth. ( ① ) Each week, members place identical bean sprouts under red, blue, and white light and record their height. ( ② ) At first, many students expected the white light to produce the tallest plants. ( ③ ) However, the results showed that plants under red light grew noticeably faster than the others. ( ④ ) The club's advisor explained this by comparing light to food. Just as people need certain nutrients to grow strong, plants absorb certain colors of light more efficiently than others. ( ⑤ ) To make the data reliable, students repeat each trial three times and calculate the average. They also keep a shared notebook, recording sunlight, watering time, and temperature. Next month, the club plans to present these findings at the school science fair.

Please also remember to turn off the lights and lock the door carefully. ( ⑤ ) These simple habits will keep the room clean and available for everyone.
