문 5. 다음 글의 내용과 일치하는 것은?

The most notorious case of imported labor is of course the Atlantic slave trade, which brought as many as ten million enslaved Africans to the New World to work the plantations. But although the Europeans may have practiced slavery on the largest scale, they were by no means the only people to bring slaves into their communities: earlier, the ancient Egyptians used slave labor to build their pyramids, early Arab explorers were often also slave traders, and Arabic slavery continued into the twentieth century and indeed still continues in a few places. In the Americas some native tribes enslaved members of other tribes, and slavery was also an institution in many African nations, especially before the colonial period.

① African laborers voluntarily moved to the New World.

② Europeans were the first people to use slave labor.

③ Arabic slavery no longer exists in any form.

④ Slavery existed even in African countries.

 

문 5에서 주어진 내용은 다양한 문화와 지역에서 노예 노동이 존재했음을 설명하고 있습니다. 이에 따라 가장 일치하는 선택지는 "④ Slavery existed even in African countries."입니다. 주어진 글에서는 아프리카 국가들에서도 노예제도가 존재했다고 언급되었습니다.

다른 선택지들은 어법상 문제가 있습니다: ① "This guide book tells you where should you visit in Hong Kong." 문장은 관사 "where"가 도치되어 위치가 잘못되었습니다. 올바른 문장은 "This guide book tells you where you should visit in Hong Kong."입니다. ③ "The novel was so excited that I lost track of time and missed the bus." 문장에서 "excited"는 동사가 아니라 형용사이므로 "exciting"으로 수정해야 합니다. 즉, "The novel was so exciting that I lost track of time and missed the bus."가 올바른 문장입니다. ④ "It’s not surprising that book stores don’t carry newspapers any more, doesn’t it?" 문장은 부정문인데 "doesn't it?" 부분이 의문문 형태로 되어있어 문법적으로 일치하지 않습니다. 올바른 문장은 "It’s not surprising that book stores don’t carry newspapers any more, is it?"입니다.

 

문 7. 다음 글의 제목으로 가장 적절한 것은?

Warming temperatures and loss of oxygen in the sea will shrink hundreds of fish species―from tunas and groupers tosalmon, thresher sharks, haddock and cod―even more thanpreviously thought, a new study concludes. Because warmerseas speed up their metabolisms, fish, squid and other waterbreathing creatures will need to draw more oxygen fromtheocean. At the same time, warming seas are already reducingthe availability of oxygen in many parts of the sea. Apair of University of British Columbia scientists argue that since thebodies of fish grow faster than their gills, these animalseventually will reach a point where they can’t get enoughoxygen to sustain normal growth. “What we found was that the body size of fish decreases by 20 to 30 percent for every1 degree Celsius increase in water temperature,” says authorWilliam Cheung.

① Fish Now Grow Faster than Ever

② Oxygen’s Impact on Ocean Temperatures

③ Climate Change May Shrink the World’s Fish

④ How Sea Creatures Survive with Low Metabolism

문 8. 밑줄 친 부분 중 어법상 옳지 않은 것은?

Urban agriculture (UA) has long been dismissed as a fringeactivity that has no place in cities; however, its potential is beginning to ① be realized. In fact, UA is about foodself-reliance: it involves ②creating work and is a reactionto food insecurity, particularly for the poor. Contraryto③which many believe, UA is found in every city, whereit is sometimes hidden, sometimes obvious. If one lookscarefully, few spaces in a major city are unused. Valuablevacant land rarely sits idle and is often taken over―eitherformally, or informally―and made ④ productive

문 8에서 어법적으로 옳지 않은 부분은 "③ which"입니다. 이 부분은 문맥상 주어와 동사가 필요한 구문인데, "which"는 관계 대명사로 사용되고 있어서 주어와 동사의 역할을 할 수 없습니다. "which many believe"를 수정하여 주어와 동사를 명확하게 표현해야 합니다. 따라서 수정된 문장은 다음과 같습니다:

문 10. 다음 글의 흐름상 가장 어색한 문장은?

The term burnout refers to a “wearing out” from the pressures of work. Burnout is a chronic condition that results as daily work stressors take their toll on employees. ①The most widely adopted conceptualization of burnout has been developed by Maslach and her colleagues in their studies of human service workers. Maslach sees burnout as consisting of three interrelated dimensions. The first dimension―emotional exhaustion―is really the core of the burnout phenomenon. ②Workers suffer from emotional exhaustion when they feel fatigued, frustrated, used up, or unable to face another day on the job. The second dimension of burnout is a lack of personal accomplishment. ③ This aspect of the burnout phenomenon refers to workers who see themselves as failures, incapable of effectively accomplishing job requirements. ④ Emotional labor workers enter their occupation highly motivated although they are physically exhausted. The third dimension of burnout is depersonalization. This dimension is relevant only to workers who must communicate interpersonally with others (e.g. clients, patients, students) as part of the job.

 

문 10에서 흐름상 가장 어색한 문장은 "④ Emotional labor workers enter their occupation highly motivated although they are physically exhausted."입니다. 이 문장은 주어진 문맥과는 어색하게 나타나며, 앞선 문장들과 관련성이 부족합니다. 이 문장은 "burnout"에 대한 설명과는 직접적인 연관이 없으며, 주제를 벗어난 내용을 다루고 있습니다. 따라서 "④"가 가장 어색한 문장입니다.
