영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Last spring, Minji joined a new club at her school ①called the Green Runners. Every Saturday morning, the members ②jogs around the neighborhood park while picking up trash. This activity, ③called plogging, combines jogging with cleaning up litter from the streets. At first, Minji felt embarrassed to pick up garbage in front of other people. However, she soon realized that her small actions were making the park cleaner and healthier. For example, the group collected more than twenty bags of trash during their first month together. Picking up litter while running is like turning an ordinary workout into a meaningful mission. Minji's legs grew tired, but her heart felt proud after every session. Now, she encourages her friends, ④who used to tease her, to join the club as well. Minji believes that small habits, ⑤practiced together, can change a whole community.

Many students set a New Year goal ①to build a new habit, such as reading every night or exercising each morning. However, most people give up within two weeks because the habit still ②feels difficult. Researchers ③who studied this process found that, on average, a new habit takes about sixty-six days to feel automatic. During the first few weeks, your brain still treats the activity as something new, so you must ④rely on willpower. This is why experts suggest ⑤repeat a small action every single day, rather than aiming for a perfect performance right away.

The student council reminds all club members about the rules for using the club activity room. First, every club must sign up for a time slot on the reservation sheet. Members should arrive on time and leave the room within ten minutes after their activity ends. Because several clubs share the same space, food and drinks are not ①allowed inside the room. Members must also return chairs and tables to their ②original positions before leaving. If equipment is ③broken or missing, the club leader should report it to the teacher. Clubs that ④follow these rules may lose their reservation for the following month. Please also remember to turn off the lights and lock the door carefully. These simple habits will keep the room ⑤clean and available for everyone.

On January 1st, I decided to become a healthier person and wrote down three goals: exercising three times a week, reading one book every month, and sleeping before midnight. During the first week, I felt ①excited and followed my plan without any trouble. However, by the second week, I began skipping my morning jogs because I felt too ②tired after school. My friend Mina noticed that I looked discouraged, so she offered to exercise with me after class. Having a partner made the habit much ③harder to keep, and I also moved my book onto my desk instead of my phone, which helped me read every night. By the end of January, I had ④finished two books and jogged more than ten times, and I felt genuinely ⑤proud of the progress I had made.

A goal should be specific, meaning you describe exactly what you want to do instead of using ①vague words. It should also be measurable, so you can check your progress with clear numbers such as pages read or minutes exercised. Being achievable means the goal ②fits your current situation and is not too difficult to reach. A relevant goal truly ③matters to your life and interests, and a time-bound goal has a clear deadline that pushes you to take action instead of waiting. Setting goals this way turns vague wishes into ④unclear plans, which are much ⑤easier to follow through every single day.

Last month, our class began practicing for the school choir contest, but rehearsals quickly turned tense. Minji, who had the loudest voice, kept correcting other members in the middle of songs. Several students felt hurt 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 awkward silence, Minji admitted she had never noticed how her words affected others. So the class tried something new: _______________. Slowly, the tension faded and attendance returned to normal. On the day of the contest, the choir sang together with real confidence and earned second place.

This year's Club Festival will be held in the school gym and nearby classrooms next Friday. Visitors should first pick up a program map at the entrance to find each club's booth. Art and photography clubs will show their work in Classroom 201. Dance and music clubs will perform on the gym stage. Performances start every thirty minutes, so guests should arrive five minutes early. Because seating is limited, latecomers may need to stand at the back. Visitors may take photos, but please turn off the camera flash during performances. Food will be sold outside the gym, but drinks cannot be brought into the exhibition rooms. If you have questions, staff members wearing yellow vests will be glad to help. We hope everyone enjoys _______________.

Every spring, the volunteer club at our school introduces new members to its most popular project: the nursing home visit program. (A) For example, one member always brings her ukulele and plays simple songs that the residents remember from their youth. (B) As a result, both the students and the elderly residents look forward to these visits every month. (C) During each visit, members are encouraged to bring a small talent or hobby to share with the residents.

주어진 문장: That is why many people quickly abandon their planners after just a few weeks. Starting a new diary or planner in January is easy, but keeping it useful all year is harder. ( ① ) This guide offers simple tips for using a planner to manage your New Year goals. ( ② ) First, write one clear goal at the top of each month so you always remember your main target. ( ③ ) Second, break that goal into small weekly tasks instead of writing vague plans. ( ④ ) Third, check your planner every morning and mark tasks as done when you finish them. ( ⑤ ) Finally, do not worry if you skip a day, since staying consistent matters more than being perfect.

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