At one time there was nothing unusual about later motherhood. In many families, sibling births ㉠ spanning a generation, and grandchildren were often similar in age to their parents' younger brothers and sisters. The medical perspective on later motherhood tends to be problemcentered. 'Elderly' pregnant mothers ㉡ are seen purely in terms of ㉢ increased risks to themselves and their infants. Psychological research of women who become mothers later than usual ㉣are scarce, but those that are available suggest they ㉤ have qualities which make them just as good, though different from their younger counterparts. ① ㉠, ㉣ ② ㉠, ㉤ ③ ㉡, ㉢ ④ ㉡, ㉢, ㉣ 문 7. 두 사람의 대화 중 자연스럽지 않은 것은? ① A : There's something really bothering me.

Most research has suggested that marital satisfaction follows the U-shaped configuration. Specifically, marital satisfaction begins to decline just after the marriage, and it continues to fall until it reaches its lowest point following the births of the couple's children. However, at that point, satisfaction begins to grow, eventually returning to the same level that it held before the marriage. Middle -aged couples cite several sources of marital satisfaction. For instance, both men and women typically state that their spouses are "their best friends," and that they like their spouses as people. They also view marriage as a long-term commitment and agree on their aims and goals. Finally, most also feel that their spouses have grown more interesting over the course of the marriage. ① Painful Memories of Marriage ② From Full House to Empty Nest ③ The Ups and Downs of Marriage ④ The Components of a Happy Life 문 12. 다음 글의 요지로 가장 적절한 것은? Have you seen that something new has been added to your phone book? The new Pacific Telephone Directory has a special Survival Guide. The Survival Guide gives basic step-by-step instructions for dealing with various types of emergencies. It gives you directions for calling for help and what to do until the help arrives. It was written and edited through the cooperative efforts of Pacific Telephone, and the State of California, and medical and emergency service staff. You and your family are urged to read this Guide carefully and learn what to do in emergency situations before they happen. Separately bound copies or extra copies are printed in English, Spanish, or Chinese. These are now available to you. ① Both medical and emergency experts work with Pacific Telephone. ② It is important to cooperate with Pacific Telephone in emergency situations. ③ The State of California is working hard to enhance the quality of its telephone service. ④ A special Survival Guide has been included in your telephone book to assist you in emergency situations. 문 13. 다음 글의 내용으로 추론할 수 있는 것은? While waiting for your scheduled flight out of town, you can be tempted to get "bumped" from an overbooked flight. Many people think that if you have a few magazines to read and can catch a later flight, volunteering to be bumped is a very lucrative arrangement. However, airlines are no longer as generous as they once were. Compensation for volunteers often amounts only to "free flight" vouchers that are full of restrictions. It may be wiser to request dollar-amount vouchers, which usually are not subject to blackout dates and have fewer limitations. ① Overbooking is an airline industry's unrealistic practice to give hardship to clients. ② Dollar-amount vouchers have many limitations compared with free-flight vouchers. ③ Airlines used to offer additional benefits to passengers who volunteered to be bumped. ④ Volunteering to be bumped means that you have to spend several days reading magazines. 2012 하반기 지방 7급 등 시험 영 어 B 책형 3 쪽 ※ 밑줄 친 부분에 들어갈 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오. [문 14 ～문 16] 문 14. The life cycle of the harp seal is one of the great wonders of nature. Each autumn the seals begin a remarkable journey that carries them over three thousand miles. At a steady flow throughout the winter months, hundreds of thousands of mature harp seals swim through iceberg-filled waters from their summer homes in the northwest Atlantic to the solid ice packs in the Gulf of St. Lawrence in eastern Canada. Once they reach the great sheets of winter ice, each female harp seal will claim her own space on which to give birth to a single pup. Thousands of harp seal pups are born and nurtured here each spring, transforming this frozen wilderness into _______________________. ① a vast nursery ② iceberg-filled waters ③ the sunlit summer home ④ a newly constructed place 문 15. The highs and lows of life may seem to have no predictable plan. But scientists now know there are very definite life patterns that almost all people share. Today, when we live 20 years longer than our great-grandparents, it is clearer than ever that the "game of life" is really a game of ______________. As we age, we trade strength for ingenuity, speed for thoroughness, passion for reason. These exchanges may not always seem fair, but at every age, there are some advantages. So it is reassuring to note that even if you've passed some of your "prime," you still have other prime years to experience in the future. Certain important primes seem to peak later in life. ① chance ② survival ③ trade-offs ④ thoughtfulness 문 16. A four-year study conducted by the Infant Testing Center in San Francisco, California, suggests that babies feel more comfortable around other babies than strange adults. According to the study, babies benefit by being with their fellow infants daily. Whereas a baby might show fear of an adult stranger, he or she is likely to smile and reach out for an unfamiliar infant. By the time babies are one year old, they have begun to form friendships of a sort. The above findings, based on observation of 100 babies aged three months to three years, might prove interesting to working parents who must find day care for their babies. Family care in a private home, with several babies together, is probably the ____________ way to care for babies under three. Dr. Benjamin Spock, a well-known pediatrician and author of books about babies, supports the idea. He says that family day care is sounder in theory than hiring a housekeeper or a babysitter. ① precarious ② cheapest ③ reckless ④ ideal 문 17. 다음 글의 내용과 일치하는 것은? If you had to guess what genderlects are, based on what you know about dialects, you would probably figure out that genderlects are different ways of talking for males and females. There are some small differences between boys and girls ― girls tend to be slightly more talkative and affiliative in their speech (affiliative speech is talk intended to establish and maintain relationships). But much of the research has been conducted with White, middle-class children and the results do not necessarily hold for other groups and cultures. For example, some research reports that girls are more likely to cooperate and to talk about caring, whereas boys are more competitive and talk about rights and justice. But other studies have found that African American girls are just as likely as boys to compete and talk about their rights in conversations. ① There are some cultural differences in genderlects. ② White, middle-class boys tend to talk more than girls. ③ Affiliative speech is formal talk in public presentations. ④ African American boys are more competitive than African American girls when talking. ※ 다음 글의 내용과 일치하지 않는 것을 고르시오. [문 18 ～ 문 20] 문 18. A hospice is a special program for the terminally ill. It may be housed in medical centers, but it can also exist on its own. Hospice care neither hastens nor postpones death. Simply put, its goal is to improve the quality of life for those who are dying. A trained staff, supportive volunteers, pleasant surroundings, and a sense of community all help patients cope with anxiety about death. Relatives and friends, even pets, are all allowed to visit a hospice resident at any time. Patients at a hospice make their own decisions about medical treatment and the use of drugs. If they wish, they can reject both. But they can also receive drugs for pain control if they choose. Within the hospice setting, life goes on for the dying. ① A hospice is a special program for those who are dying of a terminal illness. ② Patients at a hospice should take medication as prescribed by their doctors. ③ Hospice care does not lengthen the life span of a terminally ill patient. ④ Hospice patients are allowed to take painkillers if they want. 2012 하반기 지방 7급 등 시험 영 어 B 책형 4 쪽 문 19. An earthquake is simply an unannounced convulsion. It is like performing a Shakespearean tragedy that begins absurdly in the fifth act; after 15 seconds, Hamlet and the others lie dying, and the stage is covered with blood and debris. For many years one may have lived on top of the San Andreas fault and made doomy jokes about it; it is like having a violent beast in the basement, knowing that one day it may burst up through the living room floor. But there is no preparation for the moment. Only certain animals feel premonitory vibrations undetectable to humans. They grow skittish. Horses glare with wild panicked eyes. ① Hamlet is found dying in the fifth act of Hamlet. ② A violent beast lived in the San Andreas a long time ago. ③ There is no knowing when the next earthquake is occurring. ④ Some animals can detect a presage of the earthquake. 문 20. Traditional Korean houses can be structured into an inner wing (anchae) and an outer wing (sarangchae). The individual layout largely depends on the region and the wealth of the family. Whereas aristocrats used the outer wing for receptions, poor people kept cattle in the sarangchae. The wealthier a family, the larger the house. However, it was forbidden to any family except for a king to have a residence of more than 99 kan. A kan is the distance between two pillars used in traditional houses. The inner wing consisted of a living room, a kitchen and a wooden -floored central hall. More rooms may be attached to this. Poor farmers would not have any outer wing. Floor heating (ondol) has been used in Korea for centuries. The main building materials are wood, clay, tile, stone and thatch. Because wood and clay were the most common materials used in the past, not many old buildings have survived into present times. ① There was a kitchen in the inner wing. ② Cattle could be kept in the outer wing. ③ Only a king could have a residence of 100 kan. ④ Poor people were not permitted to have the outer wing.
