Ⅰ. OPIc 파헤치기
OPIc 이란?
Background Survey
OPIc FAQ
OPIc 이란?
OPIc은 Oral Proficiency Interview-computer의 약자로 컴퓨터를 통해 진행되는 영어 말하기 시험입니다.
OPIc은 단순히 문법이나 어휘 등을 얼마나 많이 알고 있는가를 측정하기 보다는 실제 생활에서 얼마나 효과적이고 적절하게 언어를 사용할 수 있는
가를 중점적으로 평가합니다. 즉, OPIc은 응시자가 외국어로 어떤 일을 할 수 있고, 실생활의 목적들과 연관되게 언어 기술을 시용할 수 있는가를
측정하는 시험입니다.
OPIc 의 특징
맞춤형
OPIc은 시험 전 Background Survey(배경 설문 조사)를 통해 응시자 개개인의 관심사에 맞춘 문제가 출제됩니다.
문항 구성
OPIc은 모든 문항을 두 번씩 들을 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다. 시험 진행 화면에서 질문을 들은 후 5초 안에 REPLAY 버튼을

문제2회
누르면 다시 한 번 들을 수 있습니다. 재 청취를 하더라도 등급에 영향을 미치지 않기 때문에 REPLAY 버튼을 눌러서 문제를
청취 가능
다시 들으며 답변을 생각해 볼 시간을 갖는 것도 좋습니다.
충분한 답변
OPIc에는 각 문항당 답변 제한시간이 없습니다. 충분한 답변 시간 확보를 통해 수험자의 실질적인 말하기 실력을 측정합니다.
시간 확보

OPIc FAQ
1 시험 당일 무엇을 준비해야 하나요?
시험 당일에는 규정 신분증(주민등록증, 운전면허증, 기간 만료 전 여권, 공무원증 등)을 반드시 지참해야 합니다. 말하기 시험이기 때문에
필기도구 등은 필요하지 않으며 시험이 진행되는 동안에는 컴퓨터 및 게시판을 통해 시간확인을 할 수 있습니다.
2 시험응시 도중 필기도구를 사용하여 답변을 준비해도 되나요?

OPIc 응시자는 필기도구를 가지고 시험장에 입실할 수 없습니다. 따라서 시험 중에 필기도구를 이용하여 메모 등을 하실 수 없으며, 적발 시
부정행위로 처리되어 OPIc 시험 규정에 따라 향후 시험 응시 기회에 제한을 받습니다.
3 Self Assessment란 무엇인가요?

Self Assessment는 난이도 선택을 일컫습니다. OPIc은 본시험 1차와 본시험 2차로 크게 나뉩니다. 본시험 1차는 시험 전에 선택했던 난이도의
수준에 맞는 문제가 출제되는 것이고, 본시험 2차는 본시험 1차를 치른 후 난이도 재조정에서 새롭게 선택한 난이도에 맞는 문제가 출제됩니다.
난이도 재조정에서는‘쉬운 질문, 비슷한 질문, 어려운 질문’중에서 선택하게 됩니다.
4 시험 보는 중간에 Self Assessment로 레벨을 변경하는 것이 성적에 영향을 미치나요?

처음에 높은 레벨로 시작했다가 중간에 낮은 레벨로 바꾸거나, 그 반대로 낮은 레벨에서 시작해서 높은 레벨로 바꾸는 자체로는 성적이 바뀌지
않습니다. 철저히 주어진 답변에 얼마나 충실하게 답변했는지가 성적을 좌우한다고 보면 됩니다. 그러나, 본인이 영어 실력과 너무 동떨어진
레벨을 선택하는 것은 바람직하지 않습니다.
5 난이도에 따라 문제수가 달라지나요?

OPIc은 Self Assessment에서 선택한 난이도(총 1~6단계)에 따라 12~15개의 문제가 출제됩니다.
1~2단계에서는 보통 12문제가 출제되고 난이도 초급으로 분류할 수 있습니다. 이 단계에서는 보통 항목당 두 문제 정도가 출제되고 문제
빠르기와 난이도가 비슷하다고 할 수 있습니다.
~4단계에서는 15문제가 출제되며 난이도 중급으로 이해할 수 있습니다. 3단계와 4단계의 난이도는 큰 차이가 없으므로 IL�IM등급을 준비하고
3
있다면 3~4단계를 선택하면 됩니다.
3단계 이상부터는 항목당 세 문제, 즉 Three Combo 문제가 등장하게 됩니다.
5~6단계 역시 15문제가 출제되며 난이도는 고급에 해당됩니다. 최고 난이도답게 3~4단계 수준의 문제 이외에 다소 어려운 시사 관련
문제가 등장합니다.
따라서 초·중·고급 난이도의 차이점을 정확하게 이해하고 선택하는 것이 중요합니다.
6 Background Survey 내용과 관련이 없는 문제도 출제되나요?

OPIc은 Background Survey를 통해 수험자의 개인 맞춤형 문항출제가 가능하지만 다른 영역의 질문 또한 출제되어 수험자가 예상하지 못한
문제에 대한 상황 대처능력 및 순발력 또한 평가합니다. 따라서, Background Survey에서 선택한 내용과 다른 문제가 출제되더라도 최선을
다해 성실하게 답변하는 것이 좋습니다.
7 문제를 반복해서 들으면 성적에 안 좋은 영향을 미치나요?

문제를 반복 청취하는 것이 성적에 직접적으로 영향을 미치는 것은 아닙니다. 하지만 문제를 반복 청취했을 때 답변 시간이 줄어들 수밖에
없으므로, 시간 관리에 어려움을 느낄 수도 있습니다. OPIc 문제의 답변 시간은 질문 청취 시간을 제외하고 약 35분 가량입니다. 따라서 주어진
시간 내 모든 문제에 효율적으로 답변할 수 있도록 시간을 활용해야 합니다.
8 성적이 UR이라고 나오는 것은 무엇을 의미하나요?

“UR”은 unable to rate을 의미합니다. UR은 녹음 불량, 녹음 음량이 너무 작은 경우, 수험자가 답변을 하지 않은 경우에 해당합니다. 수험자의
과실인 경우 응시료 환불 및 재시험의 기회가 주어지지 않습니다. 반면, 시스템적인 오류로 UR이 나왔을 경우 한 번의 재시험 기회를 드립니다.

Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.

Albert Einstein
(1879~1955) German physicist
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning:
just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes,
we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.

PRACTICE 01 별 따기 비법노트
아래 내용을 답변할 때마다 적용하고 있는지 체크합니다.
노트 No.1 흔들리지 말자, 구조!

OPIc의 질문은 한 개 내용에 대한 답변부터 복잡한 상황에서 여러 가지 내용에 대한 답을 요구하는 형태들로 구성합니다. 단지 답변을 길게
한다고 해서 고득점을 받을 수 있는 것은 아닙니다. 구조를 중심으로 반복적으로 연습하여 체득화 해야만, 다양한 질문의 형태와 주제를 접하
더라도 구조화되고 세련된 답변이 가능합니다.
서론 큰 주제를 언급함으로써 답변을 구성할 때 어디에 집중 해야 하는지 스스로 정리하는 시간을 가질 수 있습니다. 또한 평가자로 하여금 질문의 의도를 이해
했다는 확신을 줄 수 있습니다.
인물 묘사의 경우 일반적인 질문, “Do you have a close neighbor? Who is he or she? How often do you see him or her, and what do you
usually do when you meet your neighbor? Please describe your neighbor including any memorable event between you and your
neighbor in detail.” 을 예를 들면, 답변 전체적으로는 질문의 요구사항인 Who�, How often�, What�, memorable event 에 대해 모두 답변
해야 하지만, 서론에서는 큰 주제인 “close neighbor” 에 초점을 맞추어 가까운 이웃이 누구인지를 언급합니다.
예 >> T
he neighbor whom I am closest to is Mrs. Kim, who has been living next door to me for almost five years, so we have gotten
to know each other well.
본론 서론에서는 주제에 대한 부분만 언급했다면, 본론에서는 질문의 구체적인 요구사항에 대답합니다. 또한 질문의 요구사항 (5W1H)에 모두 답변을 해야만
문제를 정확히 이해했다고 평가 받을 수 있습니다 (Comprehensibility 영역).
1. 배경설명 (How often)
서론에 거론된 가까운 이웃과의 관계 형성 배경을 말함으로써, 이야기의 관심을 유도하고 답변자도 내용을 풀어가기 쉬워집니다.
예 >> I see her every day.
2. 사건 (memorable event)
5W1H에 맞추어 답변을 구성하면서 시간적 공간적 순서에 따라 답변합니다.
예 >> One year, I was unable to go home for New Year’s Day, and she asked me to eat dinner with her family.
3. 기억에 남는 이유
경험에 대한 의견 (생각, 느낌)을 이유 제시와 함께 표현합니다.
예 >> When I was dreading spending the holiday without my family, she made me feel right at home.
결론 본론 내용만큼 중요한 것이, 얼마나 자연스럽게 마무리 짓느냐입니다. 소개 된 인물에 대한 총평이나 관계에 대한 앞으로의 전망을 긍정적인 톤으로
마무리합니다.
예 >> I hope we can be neighbors for a long time.
노트 No.2 잊지 말자, 쿠션언어!

IM2 이하 레벨의 학습자도 대략적인 구조는 잡을 수 있으나, 문장간 연결이 매끄럽지 않습니다. 따라서 IM3 이상의 등급을 획득하기 위해서 서론~
본론, 본론~ 결론 사이에 쿠션언어를 활용하여 자연스러운 흐름을 구성하는 것이 도움이 됩니다.
인물 묘사의 경우 본론 내용을 시작하기 전 본론의 주제문으로 인물에 대한 의견을 이유 제시와 함께 쿠션언어로 활용합니다. 또한 본론과 결론 사이에는 본론의 처음에
언급한 주제문을 다시 한번 활용하여 결론과의 연결을 시도합니다. 이때 동일한 표현은 피하고 비슷한 의미를 가진 다양한 표현을 시도합니다.
예 >> Living far away from my family is sometimes difficult, so I feel lucky to have a neighbor as welcoming as Mrs. Kim.
예 >> I am grateful to have such a welcoming and considerate neighbor.
노트 No.3 다시 보자, 문장강화!

1) IM2 예 >> My neighbor’s name is Mrs. Kim.

본론 1. 배경설명 (When�)
I first met Jane during college orientation. We were assigned to the same orientation group and were both nervous
about being far away from our families and friends.
2. 사건 (how�)
Our orientation leader had organized some icebreaking games. We were to write down our top three favorite
movies, musicians, and hobbies, and find one person with something in common. Jane and I were the only ones
to match on all three points!
3. 기억에 남는 이유 (how�)
More than anything else, I was relieved to know that there was someone who shared the same interests with me. I

the car window.

서론 질문을 인용하여 서론을 구성함으로써 답변을 구성할 때 어디에 집중 해야 하는지 스스로 정리하는 시간을 가질 수 있습니다. 또한 평가자로 하여금 질문의

like about the place? Please describe the restaurant in detail.” 을 예를 들면, 답변 전체적으로는 질문의 요구사항인 Where�, How�, What� 에
대해 모두 설명해야 하지만, 서론에서는 큰 주제인 “favorite restaurant” 에 초점을 맞추어 가장 좋아하는 식당이 어디인지를 언급합니다.
예 >> Out of all the restaurants that I’ve ever tried, the Mill Street Grill is my favorite.
본론 본론은 아래 3가지로 구성합니다. 서론에서는 주제에 대한 부분만 언급했다면, 본론에서는 질문의 구체적인 요구사항에 대답합니다. 질문의 요구사항은

평가 받을 수 있습니다 (Comprehensibility 영역).
1. 배경설명 (Where�, what�)

가장 좋아하는 식당에 대한 개인적인 느낌과 생각을 본론에서 언급했던 내용과 연결 지어 표현합니다.

장소 묘사의 경우 본론 내용을 시작하기 전 해당 장소에 대한 본인의 감정, 의견을 말하는 쿠션언어가 유용합니다. 또한 본론과 결론 사이에는 본론의 내용을 마무리 짓고
결론에 언급할 내용을 암시하는 쿠션언어가 효과적입니다.

본론 1. 배경설명 (What�, Describe�)

every month.
2. 사물묘사 (recommend�)
Despite all the tasty seasonal specialties, however, my favorite dish is part of the regular menu. It’s rose sauce pasta full
of crab and fish eggs. I would strongly recommend it to any *2 seafood lovers visiting the restaurant.

In addition to the tasty food, the restaurant also offers a lovely dining environment. On warm summer evenings, I often

서론 (favorite�, What kind�) My favorite TV show is the American police drama, Law and Order: SVU.

recently? Describe the item and explain why you purchased it in detail.
서론 (What�) Recently, I purchased a new leather handbag.

쿠션언어 (What kinds�) I believe in spending more on accessories, such as bags and jewelry, than others because they receive more
use than regular clothing, which is often limited to a single season.
본론 1. 배경설명 (Describe�, why�)
The purse I purchased was the leather version of a canvas bag*1 I already own. Since purchasing it a few months ago, the
canvas bag has quickly*2 become one of my favorite everyday bags, so I was confident that the leather version would
serve*2 me well. It cost a bit more than I normally would spend, but the classic design is versatile.
2. 사물묘사 (Describe�, Why�)
The bag is made of buttery, tan leather, which is suitable for all seasons. In addition, it can be dressed up or down by adjusting
the strap. I often carry it on the crook of my arm with dressier outfits and add the shoulder strap to make it more appropriate
for casual days about town.
3. 추가설명
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase, and I am confident that I will be able to get use out of it for many years to come.

happened to me*1 when I was in college.
쿠션언어 On the way to the supermarket, my roommate had been complaining about a stomachache.
This was very out of character *2 for him because he was a manly guy who often bragged about his strong tolerance for
pain.

sudden, I heard my name being announced on the intercom. Someone was asking me to come to the entrance.
3. 기억에 남는 이유 (Why�)
As I made my way to the front of the store, I spotted my roommate being wheeled out on a stretcher. Apparently, his

Q3 Have you ever had a special experience while you were traveling? What happened and how

서론 Listening to that question, the first thing that comes to mind is a recent trip to India.
쿠션언어 Before the trip, I bought several guidebooks with warnings about being careful around strangers and avoiding dark, secluded
alleys.
After a particularly hot day of sightseeing, all I wanted was an icy, cold beer. In India, very few restaurants are licensed to sell
alcohol,*1 so around dusk, I got on an auto-rickshaw to find a restaurant that served beer.
2. 사건 (What�)
The rickshaw driver knew such a place and described a lovely garden, delicious food and the icy cold drinks I had been craving
all day.
3. 기억에 남는 이유 (What�)
Ten minutes later, I noticed that I was getting farther and farther from the familiar part of town. It was quickly getting dark as
I went down a narrow, unlit street. Just then, five or six men came out of nowhere and surrounded the rickshaw. *2 I asked
the driver to turn around, but he refused. Just as I started to panic,*2 one man turned on the lights and revealed a spacious
garden with some patio tables set up.
쿠션언어 After all the drama subsided, I had one of the best dining experiences of the trip in the peaceful garden restaurant.
결론 (how�) From this experience, I learned that sometimes it’s best just to relax and trust that all will work out.

Q1 You indicated in the survey that you work. Tell me about a recent project you were involved in.
How did the project go from the start to the end? Did you have any problems throughout the
project? Please explain the project in detail.
서론 (recent project) One recent project that sticks out in my mind is working on an English language database for a smart
television with a voice control function.
쿠션언어 The project was very interesting because my team had to obtain data from hundreds of native English speakers. It was my
first time working with so many foreigners, so it was a very memorable experience.
본론 1. 시작단계 (How�)
For the project, foreign participants had to pretend that they were talking to the television and write scripts *1 of commands*1
that they might give a TV. First,*2 we provided an orientation for the foreign writers to explain what was possible to say
to the television.
2. 중간단계 (How�, problems)
Then,*2 we had to wait for the scripts to be completed and then proofread them. This was a tedious process. Many of
the drafts had to be revised because some writers hadn’t followed the directions carefully.*3
3. 마무리 단계 (How�)
Finally,*2 we assigned each command a code number based on the television function.
This stage led me to realize how many different ways there are to say even basic things in English.*4
쿠션언어 Overall, this project was a rewarding experience although it required a demanding process.
결론 I’m glad to have had the opportunity, but I’m also happy it’s finally finished.

Q2 Let’s talk about your favorite sport. What is it? What are the rules? Tell me about your favorite
sport, and how to play it in as much detail as possible.
서론 (favorite sport) Since childhood, my favorite sport has been baseball.

쿠션언어 Because I started learning from an early age,*1 the rules are very familiar to me. The positions are a little complicated, but
I’ll do my best to explain the basics.
본론 1. 시작단계 (What�)
Baseball is played between two teams, each with nine players on the field at a time. The infield *2 is diamond-shaped with
one base *2 on each of the four corners. The outfield *2 surrounds the baseball diamond.*2
2. 중간단계 (What�, how�)
Each team takes turns hitting the balls while the other defends the field. The defending team puts one player on each of
the four bases and several out in the outfield to try to stop the other team from scoring. One player pitches the ball to the
other team’s batters.
3. 마무리 단계 (What�, how�)
Once you hit the ball, you get to run around the four bases. If someone touches you, you are out. The teams switch every
time the defending team gets three players of the batting team out. *3
쿠션언어 I have a lot of good memories of watching and playing baseball, and I hope you will be able to enjoy baseball, too.
결론 I hope my explanation will be helpful to you.

Q3 What sport are you good at playing? In order to play well, what should you know about the sport,
and how can you be prepared to be a good player? Also, what advice can you give to score more?
Please tell me about it in detail.
서론 (What sport�) Overall, I am not good at sports except for badminton.
쿠션언어 Badminton is a fairly simple game, but it is easy to get the upper hand if you know what you are doing.
본론 1. 시작단계 (What�, how�, what advice�)

With badminton, movement is very important. Players need to be light, flexible and ready to move about the court at all times.
You need to get the birdie*1 over the net *1 with a firm, graceful flick.*1
2. 중간단계 (What�, how�, what advice�)
The main idea of singles badminton strategy is to force your opponent back away from the net. This limits your opponent’s
movement. *2 By keeping the other player far from you, you can cause him to take weak shots, and this allows you to
score more easily.*2
3. 마무리 단계 (What�, how�, what advice�)
Once you have pushed your opponent back, remember that a traditional match consists of the best of three games of
twenty-one points. To persevere, you must keep up your strength and avoid wearing yourself out in the early stages.
쿠션언어 (What�, how�, what advice�) With any sport, practice is the key.
결론 (how�) I hope you will remember my advice the next time you play badminton.

쿠션언어 Although taking a rest at home might seem desirable after hard work, I like to go away for trips as often as possible to spend
my vacation well.
본론 1. 배경설명 (reasons)
I work in order to be able to enjoy my free time, so I treat myself by going on trips whenever time allows. Other people might
disagree, but spending time away from my daily routine refreshes me and lets me experience new things.
2. 세부설명
I tend to plan thoroughly before going on a trip. For instance, I book hotels and air tickets months in advance to guarantee
the best prices. I make daily schedules and make long lists of restaurants to try, sightseeing spots to visit, and things to buy.
3. 이유 (What�, reasons)
In my line of work,*1 vacation only comes once a year, so I feel obligated to make the most of it. Staying at home might be

우선적으로 그 상황이나 문제에 대한 암시를 줄 수 있도록 합니다.
예 >> I’m incredibly sorry, but I have some bad news to tell you.
본론 본론은 아래 3가지로 구성합니다. 서론에서는 주제에 대한 부분만 언급했다면, 본론에서는 질문에 제시된 문제에 대한 세부적인 설명을 요구합니다. 문제 및
상황 설명하기의 경우 질문에 세부적인 요구사항이 포함되어있지 않을 수 있으나, 답변 시 5W1H를 파악 해 설명하고, 구조는 IM3+를 목표한다면 3단계

문제 및 상황 설명하기의 경우 본론 내용을 시작하기 전 서론에서 암시한 부분에 추가 설명을 하며 뒷받침 하는 쿠션언어가 유용합니다. 또한 본론과 결론 사이에는 본론의
내용을 마무리 짓고 문제나 상황에 대한 의견 및 감정을 정리 해 표현하며 결론과 연결 짓는 쿠션언어가 효과적입니다.

서론 (what kinds�) Blogs are excellent tools to obtain information as well as insight into the writer’s personal life.
쿠션언어 (what kinds�, Why�) I read blogs for a variety of reasons, including reading product reviews and gaining travel advice and
cooking tips.
본론 1. 배경설명 (what kinds�)
My favorite blog at the moment is the cooking blog “How Sweet Eats.” I have been reading this blog for several years,
and it has been very interesting watching the blogger grow as a writer and photographer. When I first started reading the
blog, the pictures were shakily taken*1 with the writer’s cell phone camera, but over time, she switched to a professional
quality camera. Using the blog as a portfolio, she was even able to get a cookbook deal.
2. 세부설명 (what kinds�, Why�)
Overall, the content on the blog is magazine quality. I love trying out the creative recipes and interesting new products
that are posted on the site. Some of those recipes, like the lobster macaroni and cheese, *2 have quickly become
dinnertime favorites in my house.
3. 의견
I feel that just as I watched the writer grow as a blogger, I have also grown as a cook. The highly pictorial instructions and
practical tips make cooking a breeze.

Q2 What kinds of promises do you usually make to others or to yourself? What is the most
memorable promise you made recently? What is it, and how has this promise influenced
your life?
서론 (What kinds�) The most memorable promise I made recently is one to myself.
쿠션언어 (What�) Although I am not bad with money, I have difficulty saving unless I have a goal to focus on.
In the past, I have had a lot of success saving for short-term goals, such as purchasing electronics*1 and going on vacations,*1
so I decided to set my sights on a long-term one, which is purchasing a house.*1 Given the relatively high cost of a house
compared to my past purchases, it used to seem an unattainable goal.
2. 세부설명 (What�, how�)
However, after consulting with a friendly bank official, I realized that it was as simple as putting part of my salary away in a
high-interest bearing account each month. Seeing my little bankbook’s balance grow fills me with the inspiration I need to
avoid impulse purchases.
3. 의견 (how�)

Q3 These days, the importance of environmental protection is greatly emphasized. Tell me
how the environmental conditions of the present differ from those of the past, and why
environmental awareness is important in detail.
서론 Over the past few decades, awareness of environmental issues has rapidly grown.
쿠션언어 This has had a positive effect on our everyday lives.*1
본론 1. 배경설명 (how�)
In the past, people lacked an understanding of the long-term effects of their actions. There was a great push for modernization
and the convenient new lifestyle that it represented; however, this new lifestyle came at a great cost to our environment.
2. 세부설명 (how�)
Thirty or forty years ago, fast food and items in “take out” packaging *2 first came into vogue. When people finished their
meals, it was common practice to throw trash out of their car windows, but a similar action today would result in a hefty
littering fine. At that time, people were more willing to overlook the environmental impact of certain production practices
in exchange for new and improved goods.
3. 의견 (how�)
Overall, I feel that the increased environmental awareness of the modern day is having positive effects on both the lives of
people today and those of future generations. We are able to produce products more efficiently with minimal environmental
impact.
쿠션언어 (why�) Although we cannot undo all the damage done in the past, taking action today will help us maintain the state of the
world we live in.
결론 For these reasons, environmental protection will remain an importation issue for generations to come.

Q1 Let’s say you are going to purchase a brand-new smart phone. Before buying one, what do
you usually do in order to make a purchase? Describe your shopping habits when making
major purchases, such as smart phones and vehicles, in detail.
서론 A smart phone is a relatively large purchase. *1
쿠션언어 For this reason, the decision to buy one is not taken lightly.
본론 1. 하는 일 (what�, Describe�)
Whenever I change phones, I do a great deal of research before making a final decision. This includes reading countless
consumer reviews and carefully comparing available models.
2. 이유 설명
As a result, it is highly unlikely that advertisements change my decision. Also, if anything, the scarcity of a certain model
would make me more determined to purchase the product. After all, a phone that is popular enough to be sold out is
likely to have many positive points.
3. 의견
Many salespeople work on commission, so I tend to be skeptical about buying a phone based on one person’s opinion.
It seems highly likely that *2 a salesperson’s opinion would be influenced by his or her desire to make a sale.
쿠션언어 In conclusion, decisions about major purchases are not changed on a whim.
결론 If I intend to use something for years, I take time to learn about all the options available and purchase the product that
has exactly what I am looking for.

Q2 With the use of the Internet, people have been able to lead convenient lives. However,
there are some negative effects of the Internet. Explain some downsides of the Internet and
suggest some alternatives to remedy the negative effects in detail.
서론 The Internet is a powerful tool that has many positive and negative aspects *1
쿠션언어 Although it gives users access to infinite information, it can also cause serious problems for their personal lives.
본론 1. 장점
Today, there are few things that cannot be done via the Internet. You can send documents, order groceries, obtain books and
movies, and connect with old and new faces from all over the world.
2. 단점 (Explain�)
As a result, many people are finding fewer reasons to do these tasks in person. Also, many people have become overly
comfortable sharing information and other data online. Some people post every detail of their day on a variety of social
networking sites. It is possible that other users could track down their posts to find out their personal information, their
current location, and others they wouldn’t feel comfortable sharing.*2
3. 대안 (suggest�)
In order to remedy these negative sides of Internet use, people should strive to interact with others in person rather than
online. Also, people should be careful uploading information online because everything uploaded online can be shared with
people from all over the place.
쿠션언어 In other words, it is important to remember the importance of real-life interactions and the problems with privacy.
결론 Therefore, as people use the Internet as a useful tool, they should be aware of their use.

Q3 Many people today are very interested in health issues. Tell me two to three tips on how to lead
a healthy life. The tips should be simple and easily applicable.
서론 Maintaining good health is a common concern for people of all ages.*1

쿠션언어 Although different age groups have different issues, the same basic principles for leading a healthy life apply.
본론 1. 첫 번째 팁 (tips�)
Our bodies are like delicate machines; thus they need to be treated with great respect and care. For this reason, we need to
be careful about what we put into our bodies, and how we treat them. A balanced diet is a significant part of maintaining good
health. Eating three healthy meals with vegetables, meat, fruits, and nuts a day and drinking lots of water*2 are essential.
2. 두 번째 팁 (tips�)
Second, daily exercise supports both mental and physical health. Exercise trains your body, builds muscles, helps blood
circulate, and increases metabolism.*3 You don’t need a lot of fancy exercise equipment. Just strolling around your house
for thirty minutes a day will be sufficient.
3. 세 번째 팁 (tips�)
Another factor, which sometimes can be overlooked, is regular medical and dental check-ups. Some*4 healthy young people
believe *4 they are invincible and do not know the value of health until they lose it. However, this habit might hinder you
from discovering an illness in its early stages.
쿠션언어 By following these simple tips, you will be able to maintain and improve the conditions of your body. I hope you take good
care of your own body.
결론 Health is the prime requisite to leading a quality life.
