동국대 [2007] 동국대 편입학 기출어휘 분석(1.24) - 복원완료

[허민(길라잡이)]

이번 동국대 편입시험은  문장완성 문제가 10문제 표현[관용구]문제 5문제, 그리고 동의어 문제가 2문제로

총 17문제가 출제되었다. 어휘나 표현의 난이도도 약간 높은 수준이며 독해 속 표현,어휘문제는 상당히 어렵게

출제되었다. 보카바이블에서는 어휘,표현 100% 커버되었으므로 교재를 꼼꼼히 공부한 독자는 무난히 좋은

점수를 얻었으리라 생각된다. 특히 표제어에서 5개가 적중했고 숙어문제도 4개 모두 적중했다.

[1-4] [문장완성] Select the word that best completes the blank underlined.

1. The research shows that far from rejecting traditional marriage, many people __________ it too highly. They put it on a pedestal or regard marriage not only as the foundation of adult life but as the capstone.

(A) degrade   (B) revere   (C) condone   (D) cajole

<정답> (B) revere [F4431]

too highly 와 어울리는 단어는 존경하다 밖에 없으며 다음 문장에 나오는 "put it on pedestal [I-32] 존경하다" 도 단서가 된다.  

2. Yet there are also valid arguments for punishing Holocaust denial. The Holocaust was a methodical effort to __________ an entire people; it plunged far deeper into the maelstrom of human depravity than anything before it.

(A) exterminate   (B) rehabilitate   (C) punish   (D) salvage

<정답> (A) exterminate [표제어 2123]

"Holocaust는 전체 사람을 _________ 하기 위한 조직적 방식의 결과이다. "

결국 exterminate를 아느냐를 묻는 문제이다.

3. Mr. John is __________ about his appearance. He never has a wrinkle in his clothes or a hair out of place.

(A) meticulous  (B) fashionable   (C) inquisitive   (D) embellish

<정답> (A) meticulous  [표제어 3255]

그는 a wrinkle in his clothes(바지의 주름)도 결코 용납하지 않는 사람이므로 꼼꼼한 사람이라 하겠다.

fashionable은 단지 함정에 불과하다.

4. In addition to being a deadly disease, cancer is an expecially __________ one, often hiding in the body for years before it becomes apparent.

(A) tremendous   (B) insidious   (C) ostentatious   (D) preposterous

<정답> (B) insidious  [표제어 2915]

hiding in the body(몸속에 숨어 있는)가 단서이다. 

나머지 보기항은 전혀 얼토당토 하지 않으며 결국 insidious의 의미를 아느냐를 묻는 문제이다.

[17-22] [문장완성] Choose the most appropriate expression‎ to fill in each blank.

17. However, painful as it may be to accept, freedom of speech is a(n) __________ proposition. You can't have freedom of speech for some people and not for others. If you ban unpopular people from speaking, you no longer have freedom of speech.

(A) all-or-nothing   (B) indeterminate   (C) inalienable   (D) sacred

<정답> (A) all-or-nothing  

전부이거나 아니면 전무인, 타협의 여지가 없는

(You can use all or nothing to say that either something must be done fully and completely or else it cannot be done at all.)

"그러나 다소 고통스럽게 받아들여질 지라도 언론의 자유는 ________한 명제이다. 

다른 사람들 모두에게가 아닌 어떤 사람에게만 언론의 자유를 갖지는 못한다.

평판이 좋지 못한 사람에게 말하는 것을 금지한다면  더 이상 언론의 자유를 가지는 것이 아니다. "

결론적으로 두 문장에서 언론의 자유는 특정인에게만 자유롭게 말하고 다른 사람에게는 자유롭게 말할 수 없는

그런 분리가 불가능한 불가분의 쪼갤 수 없는 권리라는 것을 암시하고 있다.

(이 글에서는 painful을 통해 자기를 좋게 말하는 사람에게만 말할 자유를 주고 비방을 많이 하는 사람에게는

그것을 제한할 수 없다는 것을 암시한다고 생각된다.)

* 참고로 이 문제는  편입학원마다 답이 갈리는 문제이다. (종로 편입: B / 유니넷: C)

18. "I doubt if she will be a good homemaker," is a common response. "Aishwarya is too ambitious and will not be ready to __________ her career for a family. The Bachchah family needs a housewife," another fan declared.

(A) attend to   (B) pay homage to   (C) compromise   (D) bridle

<정답> (C) compromise   [표제어 1011]

Aishwarya는 너무 야망적이어서 그의 가족을 위해 기꺼이 그녀의 명성을 (돌봐주지/경의를 표하려 하지/양보하지/억제하지)

않을 것이다. 첫 문장에서 그녀가 좋은 주부인지에 대해서 회의적이라는 말도 단서이다. 

19. Arson and looting laid waste entire city blocks, and scores of people were killed. In sobering demonstration of the complexity of modern American racial rivalry, many black rioters __________ their anger at the white police and the judicial system by attacking Asian shopkeepers, who in turn formed armed patrols to protect their property.

(A) suppressed   (B) glossed over   (C) fumed at   (D) vented

<정답>  (D) vented [R125] 약간 난이도가 있는 단어이다. *어근 vent (=come)

vent는 감정을 표출하다의 뜻이다. 뒤에 이어지는 their anger와 잘 호응된다. 많은 흑인 폭동자들은 백인경찰과 사법 시스템에 대해서 그들의 분노를 표출했다.

20. Beware of dualistic thinking, I tell myself; but also more specifically now, beware of starting any sentence with a __________ noun. The second I start to say, "Blacks..." or "Students today..." or "American women...", I know that I am wrong.

(A) imperative   (B) objective   (C) abusive   (D) collective

<정답>  (D) collective [F1533]

collective noun은 집합명사이다. Blacks..." or "Students today..." or "American women..들이 단서이다.

(A) imperative   (C) abusive 는 noun과 전혀 호응되지 못하고 objective는 목적격이므로 문장의 내용과 어울리지 못한다.

[26-28]

(26) Sans red face, it has displayed naked hypocrisy. While the U.S., wearing its white hat, can condemn global bad guys like Saddam Hussein for not keeping their word, it flagrantly fails to make good on its own. Out Nation, in the person of Mary A. Ryan, Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs, Secretary of State for Consular Affairs, who offered sworn testimony in Washington, D.C., on January 24, 2000, has spelled out in explicit, unequivocal detail its policy dictating the return of Elian. Is it all right because Cuba is communist and we don't have to be true to out word with our enemy? Is it no big deal because we are the superpower and there's no one who can make us honor it? Is it just old-fashioned to believe that the character of a nation really does matter?

So, what of national honor? Do we sit here and let it go down the drain? This is a time that surely will test our souls. For those who have been on the sidelines, not understanding what the fuss over this one child is all about; for those who still have doubts about where Elian should live; Doubt no more. For those who think Elian should stay here because he'll have a good future and who have been disagreeing with Mr. Gonzalez's demand for the return of his son, based on Cuba being communist; Disagree no more. Because the U.S. has spoken, that settles it once and for all.

26. The meaning of the underlined phrase in the passage is

(A) Without blushing    (B) In anger  (C) Out of shame   (D) In full-blooded spirit

<정답> (A) Without blushing   

sans prep. 《문어》 …없이, …없어서(without) (몹시 낯 선 단어일 것이다. 고 난이도의 어휘이다.)

red face는 부끄러움으로 인해 붉어진 얼굴이란 뜻이다.

이는 어린 아이가 수줍어서 얼굴이 붉어진 상황과 가까운 뉘앙스이다.

blush 또한 수줍어 얼굴을 붉히다 뜻이다. [보카바이블 표제어 flush 동의어 = blush]

결국 Sans red face , it has displayed naked hypocrisy. 얼굴을 붉히지 않고 그것은 벌거벗은 위선을 드러내었다.

(c) Out of shamedptj shame은 부끄러움 보다는 수치에 가깝다.

sans란 단어도 어렵고 보기항도 만만치 않은 어려운 문제이다.

[29-32]

It was the Angel in the House that used to come between me and my paper when I was writing reviews. You may not know what I mean by the Angel in the House. I will describe her as shortly as I can. She was intensely unselfish. She excelled in the difficult arts of family life. She sacrificed herself daily. She never had a mind or a wish of her own, but preferred to sympathize always with the minds and wishes of others. In those days--the last of Queen Victoria--every house had its Angel. When I took my pen in hand to review that novel by a famous man, she slipped behind me and whispered: "My dear, you are a young woman. You are writing about a book that has been written by a man. Be sympathetic; be tender; flatter; deceive; use all the arts and wiles of our sex. Never let anybody guess that you have a mind of your own." I turned upon her and caught her by the throat. I did my best to kill her. My excuse, if I were to be had up in a court of law, would be that I acted in self- defense. Had I not killed her she would have killed me. She would have plucked the heart out of my writing. Since then, whenever I felt the shadow of her wing or the radiance of her halo upon my page, I took up the inkpot and flung it at her. (31) She died hard. Her fictitious nature was of great assistance to her. It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality.

31. The meaning of the underlined sentence in the passage is

(A) She died in a torturous pain.     

(B) She suffered hardship in dying.

(C) I let her die in misery.           

(D) I could not kill her easily.

<정답> (D) I could not kill her easily.

보카바이블 F0451에 보면 [영화 제목속 영단어 코너]에서  die hard를 소개한 적이 있다.

die hard는 완강한 저항자란 뜻이다. 어떠한 시련에도 불구하고 쉽게 굴복하지 않고 테러리스트를 처치하는

부루스 윌리스를 연상하도록 하자. 영화 속 부루스 윌리스도 쉽게 죽지 않는다. 그래서 그녀도 쉽게 죽일 수 없다.^^

[38-40]

The second point is the more familiar one of the historian's need of imaginative understanding for the minds of the people with whom he is dealing, for the thought behind their acts: I say "imaginative understanding," not "sympathy," lest sympathy should be supposed to imply agreement. Take Burckhardt's censorious remark about the Thirty Years' War: "It is scandalous for a creed, no matter whether it is Catholic or Protestant, to place its salvation above the integrity of the nation." It was extremely difficult for a nineteenth-century liberal historian brought up to believe that it is right and praiseworthy to kill in defense of one's country, but wicked and wrong-headed to kill in defense of one's religion, to enter into the state of mind of those who fought the Thirty Years War. Much of what has been written in English-speaking countries in the last ten years about the Soviet Union, and in the Soviet Union about the English-speaking countries, has been (40) vitiated by this inability to achieve even the most elementary measure of imaginative understanding of what goes on in the mind of the other party.

40. Choose the answer that is closest in meaning to the underlined word in the passage.

(A) criticized   (B) impaired    (C) manifested   (D) obscured

<정답> (B) impaired   [표제어 2652]

vitiate [H43] 가치를 손상시키다 (어려운 단어이다. 이제는 시험에 출제되었기 때문에 또 나올 단어 중의 하나이다.)
