영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Last New Year's Day, I wrote three goals in my diary: reading more books, exercising regularly, and saving money for a bicycle. Today, exactly one year later, I opened that old page and smiled at how much ①has changed. I did not finish all twelve books I had planned, but I read six, ②which was still more than the year before. Saving money was harder than I expected, since unexpected expenses ③kept appearing. My exercise habit became the biggest surprise, and I now run almost every morning without ④feeling forced. Looking back, I realized that progress does not always match the original plan, and what matters more is that I kept trying, adjusted my methods, and ⑤to learn something new about myself along the way.

When people have no specific goal, they usually feel ①confused about where to start, and their interest fades within days. For example, a student who simply decides to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too ②vague. In contrast, a student who sets a ③clear goal knows exactly what to do every day. A clear goal also makes progress easy to measure, and noticing small improvements keeps people ④encouraged. Setting a specific goal is one of the most ⑤ineffective ways to build lasting motivation.

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

This goal-tracking app helps you set New Year goals and build healthy habits step by step. First, open the app and create an account using your email address. Next, tap the plus button to add a new goal, and choose how often you want to ①practice it. The app will then send a ②rare reminder at the time you select each day. Every time you complete a task, tap the checkmark, and the app will ③record your streak automatically. You can also view a simple chart that shows your ④progress over the past month. Finally, share your progress with a friend inside the app for extra ⑤motivation and support.

This workbook is designed to help you set meaningful goals for the new year, so please read the instructions carefully before you begin. First, turn to page one and write down one goal you truly want to achieve this year, and then ___________. On page two, break your goal into four smaller monthly steps, using the space provided for each month. Then, use the weekly checklist on page three to track your progress every Sunday.

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.

On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. Every table had a banner, and members called out to new first-graders like me. (A) She showed me a sketchbook filled with simple drawings by first-year members. Her gentle voice made me feel relaxed for the first time that day. Without much thought, I wrote my name on the sign-up sheet before leaving. Walking out of the gym, I finally felt that I belonged in this new school. (B) My friend Somin dragged me toward the robotics club, insisting it would suit me. However, the long list of coding projects looked too complicated for a beginner. (C) Just then, I noticed a quiet table where students were sketching posters together. A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners.

주어진 문장: This selective compression of memory is not random, however; it follows a strikingly predictable psychological pattern. When people look back on a multi-day journey, they rarely recall every hour with equal clarity; instead, memory tends to compress the entire experience into just a few representative moments. ( ① ) Psychologists have found that two points carry disproportionate weight in this process: the single moment when emotion, whether joy or discomfort, reached its highest intensity, and whatever happened right before the experience concluded. ( ② ) Consider two hikers who complete an identical five-day trek. ( ③ ) The first finishes with a grueling, rain-soaked final climb, while the second enjoys a calm, scenic descent on the last afternoon despite having endured an equally difficult ascent earlier in the trip. ( ④ ) Even though both hikers faced comparable hardship overall, the second is far more likely to remember the journey fondly, simply because the trip ended pleasantly. ( ⑤ ) This pattern reveals that overall satisfaction is not calculated as an average of every experienced moment; rather, it is shaped disproportionately by whichever moments felt most intense and by however the experience happened to end.

This helps every club know exactly when the room is free for their use. 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. ( ① ) Members should arrive on time and leave the room within ten minutes after their activity ends. ( ② ) Because several clubs share the same space, food and drinks are not allowed inside the room. ( ③ ) Members must also return chairs and tables to their original positions before leaving. If equipment is broken or missing, the club leader should report it to the teacher. ( ④ ) Clubs that ignore these rules may lose their reservation for the following month. 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.

주어진 문장: In contrast, downward comparison, which involves comparing oneself with someone worse off, can temporarily boost self-esteem instead. Psychologist Leon Festinger introduced social comparison theory, which explains that people evaluate their own abilities and opinions by comparing themselves with others. ( ① ) According to this theory, individuals engage in upward comparison when they measure themselves against someone who appears more successful, attractive, or accomplished. ( ② ) Social media platforms, filled with carefully edited photos and exaggerated achievements, provide endless opportunities for this kind of comparison. ( ③ ) For instance, a teenager browsing vacation pictures posted by classmates may begin to feel that her own ordinary life is somehow inadequate. ( ④ ) Unlike comparing oneself with someone in a similar position, which can sometimes boost confidence, upward comparison frequently triggers envy, dissatisfaction, and lower self-esteem. ( ⑤ ) Researchers have found that frequent upward comparison online is linked to higher depression and anxiety. Consequently, this theory helps explain why scrolling through social media often leaves users feeling worse rather than better about themselves.
