밑줄 친 부분이 가리키는 대상이 나머지 넷과 다른 것은?  <고1 학평 9월>

About fifty years ago, a Pygmy named Kenge took ① his first trip out of the forests of Africa and onto the open plains with an anthropologist. Buffalo appeared in the distance, and the Pygmy watched them curiously. Finally, ② he turned to the anthropologist and asked what kind of insects they were. “When I told Kenge that the insects were buffalo, ③ he roared with laughter and told me not to tell such stupid lies.” The anthropologist wasn’t stupid, and ④ he hadn’t lied. Rather, because Kenge had lived his entire life in a dense jungle that offered no views of the horizon, ⑤ he had failed to learn what most of us take for granted, namely,[that things look different when they are far away.

＊anthropologist: 인류학자

1. 밑줄 친 he[him]가 가리키는 대상이 나머지 넷과 다른 것은?  <고1 학평 6월>

Grandfather had worked hard building an ice rink on the lake. He had spread the snow, watered the ice, and made it smooth. “Now,” said Grandfather, setting Tommy down on a wooden chair to explain things to ① him. “The first thing you will do is to hold onto the wooden chair and try to skate with it.” “Okay,” said Tommy, taking a hold of the back of the chair. It was a little difficult at first and ② he did end up falling a few times. However, ③ he learned pretty quickly. “I think you are ready to try to skate without the chair,” said Grandfather. He walked backward on the ice, at first holding Tommy’s hands, but then ④ he let go and Tommy moved toward him. Soon, Tommy was skating all by himself. Grandfather was so proud of ⑤ him.

2. 밑줄 친 these dramatically different life cycles of creativity가 다음 글에서 의미하는 바로 가장 적절한 것은?  <고2 학업성취도 평가>

Although we quickly remember the young geniuses who succeeded at an early age, there are plenty of old masters who reached their goals much later. In medicine, James Watson helped to discover the structure of DNA at age twenty-five, whereas Roger Sperry found the unique functions of the right and left brains at age forty-nine. In film, Orson Welles’s greatest work, Citizen Kane, was his first full-length film at age twenty-five, while Alfred Hitchcock made one of his most popular films, Vertigo, at fifty-nine. In poetry, E. E. Cummings wrote his first influential poem at twenty-two and more than half of his best work before turning forty, but Robert Frost wrote 92 percent of his most famous poems after forty. What explains these dramatically different life cycles of creativity?

① 창의성이 최고조로 발휘되는 시기는 개인마다 현저히 다르다.

② 예술적 창의성과 과학적 창의성은 성격이 서로 다르다.

③ 타인과 다른 극적인 삶을 살아야 창의적일 수 있다.

④ 나이가 들수록 창의적으로 생각하기 어려워진다.

⑤ 창의성에 대한 이해는 연령별로 다르다.

3. 밑줄 친 by reading a body language dictionary가 다음 글에서 의미하는 바로 가장 적절한 것은?  <고1 학평 6월>

Real, effective body language is not a group of separate actions. When people work from this rote-memory, dictionary approach, they stop seeing the bigger picture, which is all of the different things{that go into understanding others. Instead, they see a person with crossed arms and think, “Reserved, angry.” They see a smile and think, “Happy.” They use a firm handshake to show other people “who is boss.” Trying to use body language by reading a body language dictionary is like trying to speak French by reading a French dictionary. Things tend to fall apart in an unnatural mess. Like a robot, your body language signals are disconnected from one another. You end up confusing the very people you’re trying to attract because your body language just rings false.

*rote-memory: 기계적 암기

① by learning body language within social context

② by comparing body language and French

③ with a body language expert’s help

④ without understanding the social aspects

⑤ in a way people learn their native language

Go! 高!

4. 밑줄 친 creating a buffer가 다음 글에서 의미하는 바로 가장 적절한 것은?  <고2 학평 3월>

On one occasion my children and I were in the car, and I tried to explain the concept of buffers using a game. Imagine, I said, that we had to get to our destination three miles away without stopping. We couldn’t predict what was going to happen in front of us and around us. We didn’t know how long the light would stay on green or if the car in front would suddenly put on its brakes. The only way to keep from crashing was to put extra space between our car and the car in front of us. This space acts as a buffer. It gives us time to respond and adapt to any sudden moves by other cars. Similarly, we can reduce the friction of doing the essential in our work and lives simply by creating a buffer.

* buffer: 완충 지대, 완충 장치 ** friction: 마찰

① knowing that learning is more important than winning

② always being prepared for unexpected events

③ never stopping what we have already started

④ having a definite destination when we drive

⑤ keeping peaceful relationships with others
