영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

When I finally got the chance to interview a professional webtoon artist for our school newspaper, I expected her ①to describe drawing as the hardest part of her job. Instead, she told me that writing the story comes first, often ②taking longer than the artwork itself. She sketches rough thumbnails for an entire chapter before touching a single detailed panel, ③testing whether the pacing keeps readers scrolling instead of losing interest halfway through. She also reads every comment section carefully, not to copy what fans suggest, but ④to understand which moments made readers feel something real. What surprised me most was learning that a single weekly episode, which takes only a few minutes to read, usually ⑤take her nearly forty hours to complete from script to finished color.

Many teenagers check their social media accounts dozens of times a day, worried that they might miss something important happening among their friends. This anxiety, known as FOMO, or the fear of missing out, ①arises when people believe that others are enjoying experiences from which they themselves are excluded. For example, a student ②scrolling through photos of a party she was not invited to may suddenly feel a wave of loneliness and regret, even though the event has already ended. Constantly ③refreshed feeds to avoid missing such updates, however, makes it difficult to concentrate on schoolwork or conversations happening in the present moment. Moreover, this endless comparison with curated highlights of other people's lives tends to ④deepen feelings of anxiety rather than relieve them. Therefore, students should learn ⑤to limit their social media use and focus more attention on the relationships and activities directly in front of them.

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.

Setting a goal is only the first step; keeping track of progress is just as ①important. Many people write down goals at the beginning of the year but never check how far they have come. Without regular records, it becomes easy to ②lose motivation or forget the original purpose of a goal. Keeping a simple log lets a person see clear evidence of improvement over time. For instance, someone learning guitar might record which songs they practiced each week, and looking back later reveals growth that felt ③invisible day to day. Tracking progress also helps identify problems early, since a person can notice when effort stops producing results and ④ignore the plan before too much time is wasted. This habit helps a distant goal feel more ⑤achievable.

Jihun made a resolution to study English for two hours every day, and for the first three days, he followed his plan ①poorly and felt proud of himself. On the fourth day, however, he skipped his study time because he was too ②exhausted, and within a week, his resolution had disappeared. Feeling ③disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister, who suggested that he try a smaller, more ④realistic goal instead of a large one. This small goal felt much less overwhelming, so he ⑤managed to keep it every day for a month.

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.

The Hopeful Start Workshop will be held on January 10th at the Green Hill Community Center. This event is designed to _______________. The workshop will run from two to four in the afternoon, and participants will learn simple methods for writing goals that are specific and easy to measure. The workshop is open to all middle and high school students, and no experience is required. Registration is free, but seats are limited to thirty people, so early sign-up is recommended.

Most students only see the final result, a few smooth minutes each morning. Behind that short program, however, broadcasting club members follow a busy daily routine. (A) At exactly eight o'clock, the red light turns on, and the live broadcast begins. During class hours, however, most members return to their regular classroom lessons like everyone else. (B) Members arrive at school thirty minutes earlier than other students to prepare the studio. They check the microphones, the cameras, and the lighting before anyone else arrives. Meanwhile, the script team finalizes the news script that was written the night before. Once everything is ready, the anchors practice their lines one last time. (C) After school, the club meets again to review that morning's recording and discuss any mistakes. Through this daily routine, members slowly learn skills such as teamwork and quick thinking under pressure.

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

Yet the more she corrected them, the quieter the room became. Last month, our class began practicing for the school choir contest, but rehearsals quickly turned tense. ( ① ) Minji, who had the loudest voice, kept correcting other members in the middle of songs. ( ② ) 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. ( ③ ) Minji explained that she only wanted the group to sound perfect. However, Junho said her tone made people afraid to sing at all. ( ④ ) After an awkward 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. ( ⑤ ) 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.
