【문 1】다음 글의 밑줄 친 부분 중, 문맥상 낱말의 쓰임이 적절하지 않은 것은? Improving communication skills is not about improving your ability to manipulate people. It is concerned with breaking down the ① barriers between people so that we can get on better together or work together more effectively. The art of good communication is ②sensitivity to the needs of others. Being able to see the world through other people’s eyes, ears or feelings is a very valuable, and very rare, skill. Most of the time we are so engrossed with our own lives, and our needs and desires, that we simply ③fail to take into account other people’s needs. Ironically, some of the people for whom we cause the most problems are the ones closest to us. Our family and friends, and the people who work for us, tend to be the ones whom we take most for granted and are the ones with whom we make the ④most effort to communicate. 【문 2】다음 글의 주제로 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오. Even if the inventors in an impoverished country are able to develop new scientific approaches to meet local economic needs, the chances of recouping investments in research and development through later sales in the local market are very low. The local purchasing power to buy a new product is tiny, and will not guarantee sufficient profits if an invention is successfully brought to market, even if the impoverished country has state-of-the-art patent legislation. The problem is not the property rights to the invention, but the size of the market. There is, therefore, a huge difference between rich and poor countries in their tendency to innovate. Rich countries have a big market, which increases the incentive for innovation, brings new technologies to market, further raises productivity and expands the size of the market, and creates new incentives for innovation. This momentum creates, in effect, a chain reaction. Innovation raises the size of the market; a larger market raises the incentives for innovation. ① ways to help poor countries escape poverty ② the correlation between economic growth and innovation ③ effects of innovative thinking on technology development ④ the necessity of protecting the property rights of inventors 【문 3】(A), (B), (C)에서 문맥에 맞는 낱말로 가장 적절한 것은? It is sometimes argued that for many women the decision to work is not as important as that for men because they work only to provide “extras,” which are often listed as a second car, a vacation home, restaurant meals ─ items that can be seen as (A) indispensable / unnecessary. If this is so, then women can be paid less because their earnings are not essential and their attachment to the labor force is occasional. Some other people, however, point out that this argument is (B) unconvincing / inevitable for two reasons. First, not all women are one-half of a couple, and approximately half of all families headed by women live below the poverty level. Their need for income is as great as, or greater than, a man’s. But, more importantly, it is (C) unethical / conventional to pay one individual less than another individual for the same work. (A) (B) (C) ① indispensable unconvincing conventional ② indispensable inevitable unethical ③ unnecessary inevitable conventional ④ unnecessary unconvincing unethical 【문 4】다음 글에서 밑줄 친 the wrong side의 의미로 가장 적절한 것은? Hippocrates said, “Life is short, the art long, opportunity fleeting, experiment treacherous, judgment difficult.” Happiness and success in life do not depend on our circumstances, but on ourselves. The problem is that man is great but he is in the wrong side. You can see many examples in history. More men have ruined themselves than have ever been destroyed by others: more houses and cities have perished at the hands of man, than storms or earthquakes have ever destroyed. We are sure to suffer, but it is we, ourselves, who are to be blamed. ① 운명 순응적 태도 ② 자기 파괴적 속성 ③ 역사에 대한 무지 ④ 책임지지 않는 자세 【문 5】글의 흐름으로 보아, 주어진 문장이 들어가기에 가장 적절한 곳 은?

( ② ) The seas seemed capable of coping with anything that people threw at them. ( ③ ) Now, factories are beginning to dump enormous quantities of materials into the seas. ( ④ ) Especially in some coastal areas near large cities, ocean pollution is beginning to threaten marine life. For the first time, the oceans are beginning to fail in their ability to recycle humanity’s wastes. 【문 6】다음 글의 내용을 한 문장으로 요약할 때, 빈칸에 들어갈 것으로 적절한 것은? Imagine a child playing on the beach below a cliff. He finds a cave, full of excitement, goes in. Suddenly fear seizes him. In the deep dark of the cave, he cannot see the way ahead. What is frightening him is the sense of the unknown stretching into the black distance. Most of our worries in life can be like this. Our anxiety is not about something specific, but a sense that unknown and unexplored possibilities may be out of sight far ahead. We can place a limit on these worries by asking: "What is the worst that can happen?" More often than not, the worst that we fear is much less terrible than our vague fear. Once we know the worst, we can face it directly and work out more sensibly what to do. In many cases, our anxiety comes from the sense of ( A ), and the solution to the problem is to think ahead about the ( B ) situation. (A) (B) ① hostility whole ② hostility worst ③ uncertainty whole ④ uncertainty worst

【문 7】밑줄 친 부분 중 어법상 적절한 것은? Earth is surrounded by a life-giving gaseous envelope ① called the atmosphere. This thin blanket of air is an integral part of the planet. It provides the air that we breathe and protects us from the sun's intense heat and dangerous radiation. The energy exchanges that continually occur between the atmosphere and space ② produce the effects ③ in which we call weather. If, like the moon, Earth had no atmosphere, our planet would be lifeless, and many of the processes and interactions that make the surface such a dynamic place could not operate. Without weathering and erosion, the face of our planet might more closely ④ resemble the lunar surface, which has not changed much in nearly three billion years. 【문 8】주어진 글 다음에 이어질 글의 순서로 가장 적절한 것은? Early automobiles had no windows to shield motorists from strong winds. To make driving more comfortable and promote sales, the automobile manufacturers finally installed glass windshields. (A) A Frenchman, named Eduard Benedictus, provided a solution: He invented the safety glass. It consisted of a sheet of celluloid sandwiched between two sheets of ordinary glass. (B) The addition of plastic gives enhanced flexibility – safety glass bulges rather than shatters on impact. Should the windshield break, the shattered glass sticks to the plastic rather than flies off in splinters. (C) Thanks to their efforts, motorists were no longer buffeted by high winds. However, glass windshields easily broke, showering the auto and its occupants with deadly fragments. ① (A) – (C) – (B) ② (B) – (A) – (C) ③ (C) – (A) – (B) ④ (C) – (B) – (A) 【문 9】밑줄 친 부분 중 어법상 적절한 것은? Whether we like it or not, the system of copyright, one of the purposes of ① it has been to provide a fair reward for artists, ② is rapidly being removed from artistic creation itself and brought into the realms of big business. What we see too is the build-up of complete legal control over every artistic creation. The cultural conglomerates buy rights all over the place, surround them with extremely detailed property regulations, and ③ hiring highly specialized lawyers to defend their interests. The consequence is that every artist who has created or performed something has to take care that ④ their work is not taken away by a cultural industry. 【문 10】다음 글에 나타난 저자의 생각과 일치하는 것은? With the number of cell phone users at an all-time high and the trend showing no signs of relenting, certain consumer safety organizations are taking a closer look at the dangers of cell phone use. The primary concern among safety advocates is radiation; although cell phones emit only slightly more radiation than televisions and about one-third that of microwaves, the long-lasting proximity of cell phones to the body has some people worried. Speculations have focused on reproductive health and an increased risk of certain cancers. Since the long-term impact of cell phone radiation will not be known for many years, it would perhaps be wise of users to take simple precautions that reduce exposure time. ① Cell phone radiation has been shown to be linked to certain types of cancer. ② Most people receive more radiation exposure from phones than from microwaves. ③ The dangers of cell phone use may be mitigated by reducing length of exposure. ④ Speculations that cell phones are hazardous will likely be refuted scientifically. 【문 11】다음 빈칸에 들어갈 가장 알맞은 말은? Research has shown that the most important determinant of whether one indulges in junk food or healthy snacks at the office is __________. As long as you have a healthy snack within reach, you will not be so tempted to go to the vending machine. In fact, the typical office worker who is under pressure to meet a deadline does not take the time to consider what the most nutritious snack might be. Instead, most office workers will simply wolf down the closest thing they can get their hands on. When snacking, the nutritional value of the contents is not taken into consideration. For your health, it is necessary that healthy snacks be closer at hand than unhealthy snacks. ① affordability ② availability ③ applicability ④ compatibility 【문 12】다음 중 어법상 적절하지 않은 것은? Psychologists studying infant attachment have observed the way one-year-olds react ① to being taken care of by unfamiliar adults, to their parents' leaving, and to their reunions. They have found that babies who ② feel secure may be upset when their parents return, but they allow themselves to be comforted before long as they are held and talked to. But babies who feel insecure about their parents' emotional availability ③ responds to reunions differently, usually in one of two ways. One is a dismissing or avoiding style, in which the child ignores her parents when they return. When her parents try to comfort her, she may push them away from the body. ④ The other is an anxious style, in which the baby clings to the parents upon the parents' return and seems difficult to comfort. 【문 13】아래 주어진 사전 뜻풀이 가운데, 밑줄 친 treat의 의미로 가장 적절한 것은? Imagine a computer working as a doctor. It was considered as a dream, but now it is regarded as a reality. A computer can help diagnose illness. First, it stores great amounts of information. And that information can be given easily to those who need it. When people need the information about their disease, people can know how to treat it by using the information in its memory. As the use of computers increases, doctors need to know more information and to put it into computer. The question is: How can a computer deal with those who suffer from mental illness? In the near future, we need to find how to deal with this matter. ① deal with someone : He seemed to treat me as a child. ② consider or regard : He will treat this matter as unimportant. ③ clear someone of some disease : The dentists will treat your tooth. ④ give hospitality to someone : You should treat all the guests fairly.

【문 14】다음 글의 제목으로 가장 적절한 것은? Hardly any of the formulas Einstein used were really new. Many, in fact, had become common property among experts. Berlin historian Dr. Jurgen Renn brought it to a point: “Many say Einstein has created the theory of relativity out of nothingness. But in reality he did nothing but pick ripe fruits.” Renn continued: “The question remains, why he chose to pick the fruits he did. Even if Einstein’s greatest talent was to be a gifted fruit picker, he could not have chosen a better time. Never before had so many ripe apples been hanging on the tree of physical cognition. But they were also hanging so hidden that only a very sharp eye could track them down.” Indeed, most “ripe fruits” or applicable theories can be seen by many in different fields. But only by making the proper connections can the individual “fruits” result in an understandable picture and begin to make sense. ① Keep Connecting Yourself with Experts ② Set Realistic Goals for Yourself ③ See the Big Picture of Your Dream ④ Have a Keen Eye to Detect Ripe Fruits 【문 15】다음 글의 빈칸에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것은? People can live almost anywhere, from the tropics to the poles. This is because they build dwellings that shield them from the weather. The dwellings differ from one region to another, depending on local conditions. In the pine forests of the cold, snowy north, there are plenty of trees available. A common design in that region is the log cabin. In the Sahara, they build tents made of thin poles and animal skins. The wide roof provides good shade, and the open doors allow a cool breeze to come through. In the place where there is a climatic change, a thatched cottage has a roof built with locally grown reeds, small windows, and timber-framed or stone walls. It is cool in summer and warm in winter. In short, men survive by __________________. ① knowing a lot about change in nature ② making the best use of local condition ③ equipping themselves with a special body structure ④ escaping themselves from severe climatic change 【문 16】다음 문장이 들어갈 위치로 가장 적절한 것은? But being a newbie at anything has crucial advantages that veterans can only reminisce about. As someone who was young and is presently less young, I will confirm that nothing beats lessons learned from direct experience. ① Not knowing that there's a lot you don't know is empowering. ② Many people achieve the biggest strides, and experience the greatest satisfaction of their lives, when engaged in something completely new. ③ Ignorance is an opportunity for innovation, because you haven't been corrupted with a litany of dissuasions about what can't be done, or how it must be done. ④ You're a clean vessel with the power to recreate reality. 【문 17】다음 글의 외국에 이주한 사람들이 겪는 심경 변화로 가장 적절 한 것을 고르시오. People who relocate to a foreign country go through an adjustment process that often resembles what newlyweds experience. The first two weeks are the honeymoon stage, characterized by a rosy fascination with all aspects of the foreign culture. The architecture, food, and people all seem clever and charming. As in marriage, however, reality sets in over the next few months, during the disillusionment stage. The husband must deal with clogged pipes in the bathroom, and the wife with clothes on the floor. Similarly, the foreign visitor discovers that he must stand in three separate lines at the bank to get a check cashed and that the hot water comes on only once a day. ① proud → satisfied ② worried → pleased ③ excited → disappointed ④ sorrowful → relieved 【문 18】다음 빈칸에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오. Although a hunch of intuition may provide creative ideas, those ideas will not become reality until you . I find that people are often indecisive because they actually don’t have enough information to make a good decision. If you feel hesitant about making a decision, perhaps you are trying to make it based on guesswork and intuition, instead of solid information. In fact, for clients who feel stuck and can’t decide something, I often suggest research. Libraries, the Internet, books, and a thoughtful review of your own and others’ past experiences are all good sources of data. ① take a risk for them ② get the appropriate facts about them ③ take a good, hard look at yourself ④ get help from the government 【문 19】(A), (B), (C)에서 문맥에 맞는 낱말로 가장 적절한 것은? Making the industrial-based global food system possible is our ever-growing reliance on fossil fuel based technologies as the basis of fertilizers, pesticides, and methods of cultivation and transportation. On average, fruits and vegetables that arrive at tables in North America have traveled 1,500 miles to get there. On the positive side of this system is the seemingly (A) [ finite/ infinite ] variety of produce available all year long that many of us now simply take for granted. Bananas from the Caribbean, apples from New Zealand, tomatoes, orangens, and grapes from California – all available every month of the year. The downside of this, of course, is the reduction in (B) [ quality/ quantity ] of many of these varieits as they are picked early, ripened artificially, and shipped halfway around the world to be packaged, then shipped again to various places across the world to awaiting consumers. In a world experiencing the ever-rising effects of climate change and decreasing levels of cheap oil, this system is clearly not (C) [ sustainable / objectionable ]. (A) (B) (C) ① finite quality objectionable ② finite quantity sustainable ③ infinite quality sustainable ④ infinite quantity objectionable

【문 20】다음 글의 내용과 일치하지 않는 것은? Conceived in the “Roaring Twenties” and constructed at the start of the Great Depression, the Empire State Building emerged as the world’s tallest structure and a monument to high hopes that survived the Wall Street Crash of 1929. The driving force behind the project was financier John J. Raskob, a former executive at General Motors, who envisioned a structure that would tower over the planned Chrysler Building and all other rivals in Manhattan. Work began on the 102-story office building in January 1930 and concluded 15 months later, three months ahead of schedule and well under budget thanks to the reduced cost of labor and materials in a slumping economy. The building was designed in the art deco style, which recalled the prosperity of the 1920s and contrasted with the unadorned functionalism of later skyscrapers. It therefore evoked memories of good times in hard times and symbolized the heights Americans still aspired to. ① John J. Raskob designed the Empire State Building for Chrysler. ② Construction of the Empire State Building took 15 months to complete. ③ There was no need to add to the original budget of the Empire State Building. ④ The Empire State Building was designed in the art deco style. 【문 21】다음 글의 빈칸 (A), (B)에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것은? Synonyms, words that have the same basic meaning, do not always have the same emotional meaning. For example, the words stingy and frugal both mean ‘careful with money.’ However, to call a person stingy is an insult, while the word frugal has a much more affirmative and favorable connotation. (A) , a person wants to be slim but not skinny. In other words, this means that when we talk about somebody who is too light in weight, we may use the word slim showing our positive attitude instead of the word skinny showing our negative attitude to others. (B) , you should be careful in choosing words because many so-called synonyms are not really synonymous at all. (A) (B) ① Instead However ② Similarly Therefore ③ Nevertheless Moreover ④ Hence Besides 【문 22】다음 글의 주제로 가장 적절한 것은? Compared with other species, we are nothing special when it comes to speed, strength, stamina, vision, hearing, or the ability to withstand extremes of environmental conditions. A variety of technologies, however, improve our ability to interact with the physical world. In a sense, our inventions have helped us make up for our biological disadvantages. Written records enable us to share and compile great amounts of information. Vehicles allow us to move more rapidly than other animals, to reach remote and inhospitable places, and even to travel in space. Tools provide us with very delicate control and with prodigious strength and speed. Telescopes, cameras, sensors, microphones, and other instruments extend our visual, auditory, and tactile senses, and increase their sensitivity. ① endeavors to conquer unexplored places ② loss of humanity caused by conveniences ③ achievements obtained by sharing information ④ technologies extending the capabilities of humans 【문 23】밑줄 친 부분 중 어법상 적절하지 않은 것을 고르시오. One of the important environmental problems ① facing the world is overpopulation. Modern medicine and agriculture ② have made possible for a larger percentage of our species to reach adulthood, reproduce and live to a ripe age than at any other ③ time in our history. At the same time, we are consuming more of the world's resources than our ancestors. There is a decreasing rate of reproduction in some wealthy countries, but still the world population is growing with more people than can be properly fed. Only by limiting population growth ④ can we control these problems. 【문 24】Charlie Chaplin 대한 설명과 일치하지 않는 것은? . Left on his own at a young age, Charlie Chaplin quickly learned how to survive on London’s city streets. Living in part from money earned as a mime, he mainly charmed his friends and strangers alike into giving him food and shelter. Above all, he learned how to outwit the police, who were not fond of a young homeless boy without a job. After arriving in the United States in 1910, Chaplin quickly got work in silent films. After that, it did not take him long to develop the character that made him famous – the “Little Tramp.” Dressed in shabby clothes, begging money and food wherever he could find it, the “Little Tramp” spent most of his twenty-five years on screen avoiding the police, who pursued him in one hilarious scene after another. ① 찰리 채플린은 런던에서 친구들과 함께 무언극을 하며 돈을 벌었다. ② 찰리 채플린의 처세술은 경찰에게까지 통할 정도였다. ③ 미국에 도착한 후 얼마 지나지 않아 ‘리틀 트램프’ 캐릭터를 만들었다. ④ 찰리 채플린을 유명하게 만들어 준 ‘리틀 트램프’는 경찰에게 쫓기 는 캐릭터였다. 【문 25】밑줄 친 부분 중, 문맥상 적절하지 않은 것은? An important part of growing up is ① intellectual growth, in which we come to question the ideas and beliefs that have been fed to us by our parents, teachers and others over the years. When we are young, of course, we ② uncritically accept whatever we are told about the world. As a result, we are very much influenced and determined in our thinking by the views, opinions and attitudes of those around us. As we grow up, however, we often find that many things we have hitherto accepted without question are in fact questionable, and may even be ③ false. In doing so, we start to become critical, to examine our existing beliefs and standards, to sift through them and weigh them up. Such critical thinking is an important part of establishing our own identity, our own views on the world, and our intellectual and personal dependence.
