문제 1

One day, her science teacher showed the class a photo of a beach ①covered with plastic cups and bottles. That evening, she found an old tumbler ②hiding in a kitchen drawer and decided to use it every day. At first, ③carrying the tumbler felt inconvenient, and she often forgot to bring it to school. However, she kept a reminder note on her bag, ④which helped her remember it each morning. Within a month, ⑤using the tumbler had become as natural as brushing her teeth.

문제 2

Psychologist John Suler proposed a concept called the online disinhibition effect, ①describing how people behave differently on the internet than they do face to face. Because usernames often hide real identities and screens ②create physical distance from others, individuals feel freer to express themselves without immediate social consequences. This freedom can be beneficial, allowing shy people to share honest feelings they would normally hesitate ③to reveal in person. However, the same anonymity frequently produces a darker outcome, encouraging users to post cruel comments they would never say to someone's face. Malicious remarks left under celebrities' photos or news articles ④illustrates how quickly this behavior can spread once a few users set the tone. Such comments often cause severe emotional harm to the people who ⑤receive them.

문제 3

Eyewitness testimony has long carried weight in courtrooms, yet decades of research reveal that memories of witnessed events are more ①malleable than most people assume. When individuals who observe an event are later exposed to ②misleading information about what they saw, whether through a leading question or a conversation with another witness, their recollections frequently incorporate details that never occurred, a phenomenon known as the misinformation effect. In one classic paradigm, participants who watched a video of a traffic accident and were then asked how fast the cars were going when they smashed into each other reported ③higher speed estimates and were more likely to falsely recall broken glass than participants asked the identical question using the milder verb hit. Crucially, these distorted memories often feel ④genuine to the person experiencing them, since the original memory trace becomes blended with the newly introduced information rather than existing as a separate, contradictory record. Such findings have prompted legal systems to adopt ⑤careless interviewing protocols designed to minimize suggestive questioning during investigations.

문제 4

The Riverside Summer Festival will take place from August 1st to August 3rd at Riverside Park. This annual event offers a variety of programs for visitors of all ages, and admission is ①free for everyone. During the day, local farmers will sell fresh fruits and handmade crafts at outdoor booths, and in the evening, live music performances will ②entertain the crowd. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own water bottles, since most areas of the park ③allow vehicles freely. Parking near the park is ④limited, so using public transportation is strongly recommended. Organizers hope this festival will bring the community ⑤together for a memorable summer weekend.

문제 5

Traditional economic models predict that a rational individual offered any positive sum of money, however small, should ①accept it without hesitation, since even a modest gain is preferable to receiving nothing at all. When the proposer offers a division perceived as ②unfair, such as retaining ninety percent of the sum for themselves, the second participant frequently rejects the offer entirely, leaving both parties with nothing rather than accepting an outcome viewed as insulting. This behavior indicates that individuals value fairness as an end in itself, sometimes willingly ③sacrificing material gain to punish perceived exploitation. Neuroscientific investigations complement this finding, revealing that unfair offers activate brain regions associated with ④pleasure and negative emotion, suggesting that the rejection of unfairness is not merely a calculated strategic move but also an emotionally driven response. Such evidence challenges the assumption that economic actors pursue only their own material self-interest, demonstrating instead that considerations of equity can ⑤override the straightforward pursuit of maximum individual gain.

문제 6

A flexitarian is someone who mainly eats plant-based meals but occasionally includes meat or fish, unlike a ①strict vegetarian who avoids animal products entirely. This flexible diet has recently ②lost attention as a practical way to fight climate change, since raising livestock produces a ③significant portion of global greenhouse gas emissions. Cattle, in particular, release large amounts of methane, a gas far more powerful than carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. By replacing just a few meat-based meals each week with vegetables, grains, or legumes, individuals can ④noticeably shrink their carbon footprint without giving up meat completely. Nutritionists also emphasize that flexitarian eating is easier to maintain than full vegetarianism, because it allows flexibility rather than demanding absolute discipline. Therefore, many environmental groups now promote flexitarianism as a ⑤realistic first step, believing that gradual change, rather than sudden restriction, is more likely to spread widely across society.

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. (A) First, please bring your own cup, plate, and utensils to every food booth you visit. Second, each booth should use reusable decorations rather than paper banners that get thrown away within hours. (B) 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. (C) 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.

For this reason, it is best to plan ahead and pick your favorite show first. This year's Club Festival will be held in the school gym and nearby classrooms next Friday. ( ① ) 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. ( ② ) Performances start every thirty minutes, so guests should arrive five minutes early. ( ③ ) Because seating is limited, latecomers may need to stand at the back. ( ④ ) 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. ( ⑤ ) If you have questions, staff members wearing yellow vests will be glad to help. We hope everyone enjoys discovering what our clubs have worked on this semester.

문제 9

Learners can pause a lecture, rewind it, and watch it again until the concept becomes clear. Online courses have become a popular way for students to learn practical job skills outside of school. ( ① ) Platforms now offer classes on coding, video editing, graphic design, and even small business management. ( ② ) Unlike traditional classes, these courses let learners study at their own pace and repeat difficult lessons as many times as needed. ( ③ ) Many courses also include practical projects, so students can build a portfolio while they learn. ( ④ ) However, taking an online course requires strong self-discipline, since no teacher checks whether students are keeping up. ( ⑤ ) Experts recommend setting a fixed weekly schedule and finishing small assignments regularly.

문제 10

At that distant point in time, the future increase feels almost costless, since no immediate sacrifice is required. One practical application of hyperbolic discounting involves a savings program that gradually raises an employee's contribution rate over several years. ( ① ) Employees are first asked to commit, well in advance, to increasing their savings rate at a specific future date, often timed to coincide with an expected salary raise. ( ② ) Because the commitment applies only to a point far in the future, the vast majority of employees readily agree to the plan. ( ③ ) When the scheduled date finally arrives, the increase takes effect automatically unless the employee actively opts out, and remarkably few do. ( ④ ) The program succeeds precisely because it separates the decision from the discomfort, asking employees to commit when the cost feels abstract rather than immediate. ( ⑤ ) In this way, a well-timed program can help individuals overcome the very bias that would otherwise prevent them from saving adequately for the future.
