[진양문T] 수능영어 고난도 유형들의 특징 분석(4)

게시글 주소: https://faitcalc.orbi.kr/0004196760

안녕하세요. UNB ENGLISH 진양문(T)입니다.

오늘은 지난번에 이어서 [A Two-Step Method for Paraphrasing Complex Ideas]에 대해 말씀드리겠습니다.

먼저, 지난번에 소개드렸던 Reading for Results를 인용하겠습니다.


A Two-Step Method for Paraphrasing Complex Ideas


Step 1: Identify Agents and Actions


Paraphrasing in chunks, or groups of words, is easier and quicker than trying to paraphrase each word individually. You can start chunking information by breaking a sentence into two parts, the agent(s) and the action(s). The agent is the person, idea, event, or institution essential to the activity or condition mentioned. The action is the activity performed or the condition described.


Step 2: Add Key Details


If your paraphrase of just the agents and actions doesn't quite sum up the paragraph (and it often won't), you have probably left out a key detail that identifies any one of these sentence elements: (1) location of the action, (2) background or qualifications of the actor, (3) reason or motivation for the action, (4) time or consequences of the action.



그럼 위의 원리를 이용해서, 다음 글의 주제문을 찾아 agent/action/key detail로 끊어 보시기 바랍니다.



- 다음 글의 요지로 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오. (2012년 6월 평가원 기출)


Here is a surprise for you: Being happy means that you realize that there are times that you will be unhappy and recognize that life sometimes stinks. What is uplifting in those times is appreciating life and facing the challenges that come with it, realizing that you are facing challenges fellow humans have also faced. We are not saying you should lower your expectations for your so-called perfect life or downsize your goals; we just believe that if you can align your expectations with reality a little more by expecting to face challenges, you will be better off in the end. There is an interesting biological reinforcement for this notion, too: Your levels of C-reactive protein (a marker of damaging inflammation) have been shown to be higher when you have expectations that are unattainable.

역경을 예상하면서 기대치를 현실에 맞춰야 행복해진다.

② 완벽한 삶은 고난을 극복하는 과정에서 찾아온다.

③ 타인의 입장을 이해하는 것이 행복의 출발점이다.

④ 신체적 고통을 치유하려면 마음의 평화를 찾아야 한다.

⑤ 행복하려면 큰 목표를 세우고 끊임없이 도전해야 한다.


Agent: Being happy => What is uplifting => a perfect life => better off


Action: realize that there are times that you will be unhappy

=> recognize that life sometimes stinks

=> appreciating life and facing challenges

=> expecting to facing the challenges


Key Detail: (조건) if you can align your expectations with reality a little more


와 같은 과정을 거쳐서 정답을 찾으셨다면 이제 paraphrase의 원리가 어느 정도 이해하신 겁니다.




이번에는 이것을 빈칸에  응용해 보겠습니다. 



(2011년 대수능 기출)

It is a fundamental mistake to imagine that when we see the non-value in a value or the untruth in a truth, the value or the truth ceases to exist. It has only become relative. Everything human is relative, because everything rests on an inner polarity; for everything is a phenomenon of energy. Energy necessarily depends on a pre-existing polarity, without which there could be no energy. There must always be high and low, hot and cold, etc. so that the equilibrating process ― which is energy ― can take place. Therefore the tendency to deny all previous values in favor of their opposites is just . And in so far as it is a question of rejecting universally accepted and indubitable values, the result is a fatal loss.

① another way of pursuing relativeness in human affairs

② as desirable as the tendency to accept all those values

③ as much of an exaggeration as the earlier onesidedness

④ the one and only way of approaching the ultimate truth

⑤ to admit the presence of energy derived from an inner polarity



Agent: 

(근거문장) to imagine that when we see the non-value in a value or the untruth in a truth, the value or the truth ceases to exist. (기존의 가치나 진실이 존재를 중단한다고 여기는 것)

(빈킨문장) the tendency to deny all previous values in favor of their opposites (기존의 가치를 부인하고 그와 정 반대되는 것들만을 옹호하는 성향)


Action(필자의 agent에 대한 의견): 

(근거문장) is a fundamental mistake(근본적인 실수/착각)=> negative connotation

(빈칸문장) _________________.


=> 빈칸이 들어 있는 문장에서, 빈칸이 담당하는 문장에서의 역할이 이 글의 소재(agent)인 극단적인 사고에 대한 필자의 의견(action)이라는 점에 착안하면, 위의 표와 같은 구조분석을 통해 빈칸에 fundamental mistake(근본적 착각)에 해당하는 부정적인 뉘앙스가 필요하다는 것을 알아낸다면, 선택지에서 답을 고르기가 한결 쉬워질 것입니다. 왜냐하면, 3번(exaggeration/onesideness)를 제외하고 나머지 선택지들은 긍정 및 중립의 nuance를 가지고 있기 때문입니다.
