【문14】 다음 글의 제목으로 가장 적합한 것은?
| As a practicing warrior for many years, I am convinced of the complete futility of war. It settles only the problems of the past and creates the new problems of the future. There is no place in the world of today for the narrow competitive nationalism that sparks the tinder of war. I am convinced that the people of this planet must ultimately and inevitably move toward a single form of world government if civilization is to survive. But it is our immediate task to see that this world government comes as a mutual federation of free peoples rather than through the ruthless domination of a master state enslaving all others. |

The industrial workers of certain countries have been working under heavy strain for many years. During that time they have been badly fed. Moreover, the countries referred to have become dependent in a significant degree on slave labor, the inefficiency of which is notorious. |

【문18】 다음 글 전체의 내용을 가장 잘 요약한 것은?
| As the nature of the workplace changed, workers' organizations, or unions, changed too. A union was formed by workers to protect them when employers lowered wages or increased working hours. The idea behind the union was that one worker alone was weak, but many workers together were strong enough to stand up against an employer. In 1872, trade unions were made legal. These were largely local organizations, made up of skilled workers in the same trade who lived in the same city or neighborhood. These small local unions found that they could not hope to bargain with the huge national corporations that employed an increasing percentage of Canadian workers. In 1919, "The One Big Union" (which eventually failed) was created to organize all workers at a national level. |
② The first unions included everyone in a factory.
③ National unions grew with businesses after 1872.
④ Unions help workers stand up against an employer.

| My bed room is small but comfortable. The walls are covered with posters and banners of my favorite sports teams. On the left side there is a twin bed that I have had since I was ten years old. Next to the bed is my dresser. It is blue and white with gold knob. Beside the dresser is my bookshelf, which hold most of my schoolbooks. Across from the bookshelf you can see my closet.

【문22】 다음 글이 말하고자 하는 바를 가장 잘 나타내는 것은?
| My first drawing was not a picture of a hat. It was a picture of a boa snake that just swallowed up an elephant. But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it, I made another drawing: I draw the inside of the boa snake. Only then could the grown-ups understand my drawing. They always need to have thing explained. My second drawing looked like this. But the grown-up's response was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boas, whether from the inside or the outside, and devote myself to history grammar instead. That is why, at the age of six, I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter. The fact is that grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always explaining things to them. |

※다음 글을 읽고 물음에 답하시오.【문24-25】
| Salmon is one of the most popular fresh fishes in the US. More than 23 million people eat it more than once a month. They usually can choose between wild salmon and those farm-raised breeds. Eighty-six percent of fresh salmon consumed and sold in the US is farm-raised, mostly imported from Chile and Canada. Nowadays, however, reports that some farm-raised salmon may be toxic have shoppers worried. In the study published by a top scientific journal, Dr. David Carfenter concluded that farm-raised salmon contained high levels of chemical contaminants, including PCBs and dioxins, which can cause cancer and eating farm salmon could increase one's risk of getting cancer. At the same time, he said "If a pregnant woman has these compounds in her body in excess, the child that's born will have a reduced IQ, will have a shortened attention span. And these compounds suppress the immune system, making one more vulnerable to infections. So I recommend that a consumer avoid eating farm salmon." But the recommendations have been disputed by the $60 billion farm salmon industry, concentrated in Norway, United Kingdom, Canada and Chile. * PCB 폴리 염화 바이페닐 (Polychlorinated biphenyl) |
