[진양문T] 수능영어 고난도 유형들의 특징 분석(6) & 수능특강2강 정리본

안녕하세요. CEE U @TOP 필자 진양문입니다.

먼저 CEE U @TOP에 보내주신 많은 관심과 구매 감사드립니다.

오늘은 수능영어 고난도 유형 특징분석(6) “기출문제를 이용한 Paraphrase"연습법을 알려드리고자 합니다. 그리고 추가로 수능특강 2강 정리본도 올려 드립니다.

지난번 칼럼 http://orbi.kr/0004160175>에서 말씀드린 것처럼, Reading for Results는 paraphrase의 정의를 다음과 같이 하고 있습니다.

Paraphrasing Topic Sentences

Right after you finish reading a paragraph, it's easy to assume you've understood it because the author's words are still fresh in your memory. However, the real test of your understanding is whether you are able to paraphrase the topic sentence. To paraphrase means to express someone else's ideas in your own words. If you can express the topic sentence in words of your own, you can be sure that you've understood the paragraph. (Captured by Reading for Results 10th edition)

위에서 말한 것처럼 paraphrase는 사실 타인의 글을 읽고 나서 그 글의 요지를 정확하게 이해하는 지의 여부를 자신에게 익숙한 표현으로 바꿔봄으로써 확인하는 기법을 말합니다.

그렇다면 평가원 출제자의 paraphrase 실력을 직접적으로 엿볼 수 있는 수능유형은 과연 무엇일까요?

정답은 2014년 수능B형 기준으로 40번 유형인 입니다. 출제자는 자신이 선정한 지문을 읽고, 그 글의 요지를 본인이 직접 paraphrase하면서 두 개의 빈칸을 구성해서 문제를 내는 것입니다. 따라서 소위 “요약문”이라는 것이 출제자의 paraphrase 원리가 고스란히 담겨있는 문장이라는 의미입니다. 그럼 한 번 예를 보여드리겠습니다.

"Why, in country after country that mandated seat belts, was it impossible to see the promised reduction in road accident fatalities?" John Adams, professor of geography at University College London, wrote in one of his many essays on risk. "It appears that measures that protect drivers from the consequences of bad driving encourage bad driving. The principal effect of seat belt legislation has been a shift in the burden of risk from those already best protected in cars, to the most vulnerable, pedestrians and cyclists, outside cars." Adams started to group these counterintuitive findings under the concept of risk compensation, the idea that humans have an inborn tolerance for risk. As safety features are added to vehicles and roads, drivers feel less vulnerable and tend to take more chances. The phenomenon can be observed in all aspects of our daily lives. Children who wear protective gear during their games have a tendency to take more physical risks. Hikers take more risks when they think a rescuer can access them easily.

요약문: According to John Adams, the phenomenon that safety measures ____(A)____ careless driving may be accounted for by the notion that a greater sense of security ____(B)____ people to take more risks.

   (A)                         (B)

① contribute to …… tempts

② contribute to …… forbids

③ discourage …… tempts

④ discourage …… forces

⑤ discourage …… forbids

왼쪽이 요약문, 오른쪽이 본문의 근거입니다.

Ⓐ According to John Adams <= 2~3rd line: John Adams, professor of geography at University College London, wrote in one of his many essays

Ⓑ safety measures <= 4th line: measures that protect drivers

Ⓒ ___(A)___ careless driving <= 4~5th line: encourage bad driving.

=> 그러므로 (A)에는 encourage와 connotation이 같은 단어를 고르면 됩니다.

Ⓓ a greater sense of security <= 9th line: drivers feel less vulnerable

Ⓔ ___(B)___ people to take more risk <= 9~10th line: and tend to take more chances.

=> 그러므로 (B)에는 "and" 즉 긍정의 인과/전후 관계를 만드는 단어가 필요합니다.

2. 다음 글의 내용을 한 문장으로 요약하고자 한다. 빈칸 (A)와 (B)에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것은? (2013년 6월 평가원)

All art is creation, regardless of how closely the imitation approximates the original. Even the most rigorous attempt to create an absolute likeness is ultimately selective. Doing a portrait, for example, the artist may ask the subject to look serious, not smile ― selecting a certain aspect of the person. We know Mona Lisa Giaconda, the subject of the most famous portrait in the world, through her mysterious smile; but we will never know what the entire person was like. The treasure of art, however, is that its reality lives forever. The final product is really an addition to reality, not simply a way of totally reproducing it. The artist always contributes something new, something that never was put together in precisely that way before. Leonardo’s Mona Lisa is not Mona Lisa. The latter has long since gone to her reward; the former will never die.

요약문:  Every work of art, no matter how precisely it ___(A)___ the original, is not a mere reproduction, but a unique creation that exists on its own and never ___(B)___.

 (A)                  (B)

① reveals …… compromises

② imitates …… perishes

③ illustrates …… returns

④ recalls …… stands alone

⑤ verifies …… goes unnoticed
