2015년 개정 영어 II 비상(홍민표) 6과 변형 문제의 지문입니다.

1번 지문

THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren't only equal before the law- they were equal in every other way. Nobody was smarter, better looking, stronger, or quicker than anybody else. The new constitution of the United States and the agents of the Handicapper General(HG) guaranteed all this wonderful equality. Some things about life still weren't quite equal, however. Some months were colder or hotter than others. And it was in the warm month of April that the HG men took George and Hazel Bergeron's nineteen-year-old son Harrison away. It was tragic, all right, but George and Hazel couldn't think about it very hard. Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn't think about anything except in short bursts. And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little handicap radio in his ear that made it difficult for him to concentrate. He was made by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains.

2번 지문

George and Hazel were watching television. There were tears on Hazel's cheeks, but she'd forgotten for the moment why she was crying. Ballerinas danced across a television screen. "BUZZ!" went the transmitter in George's ear. Gone were his thoughts. "That was a real pretty dance they just did," said Hazel. "Huh?" said George. "That dance-it was nice," said Hazel. "Yup," said George. He tried to think a little about the ballerinas. They weren't really very good. Anybody could have done as good a job. They had big weights holding them down, so they couldn't jump high. They had masks on their faces so that no one might see the beauty inside. George was toying with the vague notion that maybe dancers shouldn't be handicapped. But he didn't get very far before another noise scattered his thoughts. “BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the transmitter in his ear. Hazel heard the sound from across the room. "I'd like to hear those noises," she said, a little enviously because she had no radio in her ear. "If I were Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, you know what I'd do?" she continued. "I'd put beautiful chimes in people's ears. People would be happier that way. I'd make a good HG, I think." "Well, as good as anybody else, I guess," said George. He began to think glimmeringly of his abnormal son Harrison, who was now in jail- maybe he'd make a good HG. "BUZZ! BUZZ!" went the transmitter in his ear. "Boy!" said Hazel, "I heard that from all the way across the room.

3번 지문

George held his ears and started trembling. "Ow!" It was so loud that tears formed under his eyes. "You look tired,” said Hazel. "Why don't you put your head down on the couch? You can rest your handicap bag as well." In George's handicap bag were placed several lead balls. These prevented him from running too fast. "What?" "You've been so tired lately, honey," said Hazel. "If only we could cut a few holes in the bag and take out a few balls." "I don't think about it anymore. It's just a part of me. And anyway, if I did it, then other people would do the same thing. Pretty soon, we'd be back in the dark ages again where everybody would be competing with everybody else. Surely you don't want to live in that kind of world." "Do you really think that's possible?” “BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the buzzer in George's ear. "Huh? What are you talking about?" "Never mind," said Hazel. The television program was suddenly interrupted for a news bulletin. It wasn't clear at first what the bulletin was about. The announcer, like all announcers, had a serious speech impediment. "L-L-L-Ladies and g-g-gentlemen." The announcer gave up, handing his sheet of paper to a ballerina. He asked her if she could read it for him. She must have been extraordinary beautiful since she wore a hideous mask. "Ladies and gentlemen," said the ballerina, reading the bulletin. It was easy to see that she was the strongest and most graceful of all the dancers. She carried enormous handicap bags. She had to apologize for her beautiful, warm, and musical voice. She cleared her throat and continued, making her voice completely average. "Harrison Bergeron, age nineteen, has just escaped from jail. He was jailed for trying to take over the government. He is a genius and an athlete, has no handicap, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous."

4번 지문

A police photograph of Harrison Bergeron was flashed on the screen upside down, then sideways, upside down again, then right side up. He was handsome and tall-200 centimeters tall, in fact. In another picture, he was shown wearing his handicaps. He wore a huge pair of earphones that slowed down any thinking and big, heavy glasses that made him nearly blind. Pieces of metal hung all over him, pressing him into his seat. Metal dangled from his shirt pockets and across his shoulders. On Harrison's strong body, he carried no less than 180 kilograms. To hide his good looks, Harrison was required to wear a big, red clown's nose, and his eyebrows were all shaved. "If you see this boy, don't approach him. He's dangerous,” said the ballerina unnaturally. Then, suddenly, a door was pulled from its frame and thrown to the dance stage. George Bergeron looked closely at the boy who emerged from beyond the door, carrying his heavy metal and wearing his ridiculous clown's nose. "My God! That's our Harrison!" "BUZZ! BUZZ!" The cameras focused on Harrison. He stood there- a giant amongst men at the center of the stage. Ballerinas, engineers, and announcers trembled before him, expecting to die. "I am the Emperor!" cried Harrison. "Do you hear? I am the Emperor! Everybody must do what I say at once! Even though I stand here handicapped and weakened, I am greater than any man who ever lived! Now watch me become even greater!" Harrison tore off his chains with ease and dropped them on the floor. He then smashed his earphones against the wall, threw away his clown's nose, and revealed a face that would have amazed Thor, the god of thunder. “Now," he said. "Who will be my Empress?" The people knelt before him. "Let the first woman rise to join me as my partner."

5번 지문

A ballerina slowly rose, swaying on her feet like a gentle rose in the breeze. "Why should you be made to carry these handicaps? Why should anyone?" Harrison asked. He pulled the buzzer from her ear, snapped off her heavy bags, and removed her mask. She was blindingly beautiful. "Now," said Harrison, taking her hand. "Shall we show the people the meaning of the word 'dance'? Music!" he commanded. The music began cautiously at first. Harrison stripped the musicians of their handicaps and said, "Try it now." Soon, the most beautiful music sounded out throughout the music hall. Harrison took his Empress by the hand. They danced gracefully across the stage, and then in an explosion of joy, into the air they jumped! They whirled, and Harrison dipped his Empress nearly to the ground. There were tears in the eyes of all those watching. They'd never known that such beauty could be possible. The dancers leapt up into the high ceiling. When the music came to an end, they embraced passionately and cried tears of joy. It was then that Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, entered stage. Diana Moon Glampers said, "Listen up, everybody! I'll give you one minute to put your handicaps back on. Or you will all die." Right at the moment, the Bergerons' television screen went black. "Huh! That was weird," said Hazel. But Geroge had gone into the kitchen to grab a beer. George opened his can of beer. "You've been crying. What's up with that?" he asked Hazel. "Um, you know, I just can't remember. I think there was something sad on television." "What?" "I don't know." "Just forget such things. That's my girl," George said, The buzzing in his ear was tremendous. "It just feels so weird," said Hazel. "Why do we have to feel things? Why in this day and age do we need to feel sad things?"

1번 지문

It is now almost impossible to live a truly private life because every human activity, be it a walk to the park or the sending of a simple text message, produces data. Phones, TVs, computers, cameras in cars, and sensors in buildings and street corners all generate different forms of data. The Internet of Things(IoT) connects home appliances to the web, uploading such everyday information as how often we take cheese from the fridge or do a load of laundry. This development of information and communications technology allows this data not only to be generated but also to be collected and stored. Almost every move we make adds up to form a vast bank of information called Big Data.

2번 지문

Big Data is frequently characterized and defined by volume, variety, and velocity: huge amounts of data collected from many different sources in real time. In fact, the total accumulation of data from the past two years alone is greater than all of the information ever recorded before that. In addition, data comes in various forms, ranging from texts, pictures, and sound files to GPS-based location information and credit card transaction records. Moreover, such data is gathered and stored at a remarkable speed: as soon as you use your library card, a record of your visit can be sent to the web and may contribute to expanding the pool of data. Modern technology now allows us to analyze data in an efficient and economical way. When such data is analyzed with the help of statistical and computational tools, it may tell a meaningful story. It is worth exploring in the following illustrations how this new technology might influence the way we live.

3번 지문

Seoul and its satellite cities are home to more than 25 million people who are often forced to take expensive taxi rides late at night when buses and subways are no longer available. When city officials decided to provide a new late-night bus service to commuters, they had to figure out the highest frequency routes and commuter hot spots so they could accommodate as many people as possible. With the help of Big Data analytics, city officials examined the records of five million late-night taxi rides and 30 billion late-night mobile phone communications, and discovered a sudden increase in rides and text messages at certain places and times. Based upon this information, they settled on several late-night routes and schedules to provide the bus service to the maximum number of people. This was how the Seoul Owl Bus came to be.

4번 지문

Over the next decade, Big Data will be replacing traditional academic guidance methods. In fact, in some universities, data analysis has already been used to predict the probable success or failure of certain students. Data analysts have scanned through hundreds of thousands of personal and academic student records in order to predict when intervention may be needed. Certain behaviors seem to be informative, such as how often students see advisers and tutors or if they take a course out of sequence. Some universities have found that students’ performance in “predictor” courses is often a good indicator of whether they will graduate or not. Based upon this Big Data analysis, many universities maintain a list of courses that might signal a need for intervention. If a student leaves the path of previous successful students, advisers can be alerted so they can reach out and offer guidance.

5번 지문

More complex analyses of Big Data will be changing the way health is assessed and medicine is practiced in the future. The biomedical sciences are already so data-driven that biologists and doctors are accustomed to collecting, analyzing, and interpreting huge datasets with the help of supercomputers. The Human Genome Project is a case in point. It took 13 years to complete the first full genome sequence of one person, consisting of six billion base pairs. These days, it only takes about 24 hours to sequence a person’s genome, demonstrating the massive impact data analysis technology has had on the field. Biomedical scientists are still trying to figure out what each gene in the sequence does and how they interact to affect our health. They are optimistic that genomic data analysis will revolutionize our understanding of health and disease on a scale we cannot imagine now. Biological variety on an individual level has necessitated a move from Big Data to “really” Big Data. Each person is unique in terms of diet, environment, habits, and the relationships they have. To add further complexity, hundreds of trillion of tiny bacteria live in the human intestinal tract, some of which help cells extract energy and maintain overall health, while others, like H.pylori, may cause combination of gut bacteria, and they may adapt and change over time. The enormous number of combinations can only be researched using Big Data analysis. Soon, medical researchers hope to understand how an individual’s biological environment interacts with different microbes in order to create customized healthcare treatments.

6번 지문

It’s hard to doubt that Big Data will continue to be an important part of human society. Data-based prediction will replace simple guessing, arming people with techniques to uncover sudden patterns, unanticipated correlations, global trends, and other meaningful information that will hopefully lead to more informed decisions. Some argue it will fundamentally reshape our lives. However, it should be noted that Big Data is a resource that could be used for good or ill, and that, no matter what, using it may give rise to unintended consequences. Depending on what data you examine, how you interpret it, and what purpose you have, the end result may tell different stories.

7번 지문

What are the issues that deserve careful deliberation? One of the biggest concerns is the question of whether or not past data can be used to predict future events. The results of Big Data analyses may mean that some people are denied health insurance coverage because of their family’s genetic history, or that others could be put on watch lists because their past behavior indicates possible future criminal activities. History tells a story, but the future is always unknown. Another concern is whether the collector of the data or the provider of the data has ownership rights. For example, many companies sell their customers’ personal information for commercial purposes. Both the buyer and the seller can make financial gains, but the customers that provide the information are left out. Like any resource, using it wisely can be beneficial, but using it carelessly can lead to unexpected outcomes.

If you saw people going through the trash at a landfill, what would you think of them? Would you think that they are studying what people throw away as a way to learn about their life and culture? That's what garbology is all about. Garbology is like archeology, but instead of examining the remains of ancient civilizations, it examines garbage in modern society. From garbage, we can find out what people eat and drink, what they consider to be waste, and much more! William Rathje, "the father of garbology," was a professor who had the idea that garbage could tell us a lot about people. With this in mind, he started the Garbage Project. For the Garbage Project, Rathje and his students examined the trash thrown away by a group of survey respondents. By comparing these participants' responses to what they actually threw away, Rathje and his team were able to discover what they called the Lean Cuisine Syndrome. People overreported how much healthy food they ate, but underreported how much junk food they had. For example, people claimed to have eaten more fruit than they had actually purchased. Meanwhile, people insisted they had eaten far fewer snacks like potato chips than the empty snack bags in their trash indicated. The name garbology may have originated as a sort of joke. Now, however, garbology is considered a real branch of science.

How can you tell that spring is on its way? Buds appearing on the trees, birds singing, and days getting longer - these are all signs. Some of you might simply notice spring because that is the time when your allergies get worse. Whatever the case, if you've noticed one of these things, you've already been practicing phenology. Phenology can be considered nature's calendar. It is the study of seasonal and cyclical changes in plants and animals, like the flowering of plants, or the migration of birds. The timing of these events is directly impacted by the local weather and climate, such as sunlight, temperature, and rainfall. Therefore, phenology is a leading indicator of climate change. Phenology provides valuable information for many professionals in different fields. For instance, firefighters or emergency responders have an interest in using phenology to determine where and when the fire season will begin. Farmers also use phenology by observing plants and insects in order to decide the best time to use pesticides on their crops. Do you want to try your hand at phenological observation? All you need is a journal, a pencil, and good eyes to observe the details of what is going on in your natural surroundings.

As we grow into old age, our bodies and minds undergo changes - changes that affect our moods, relationships, physical appearance, and response to illness. Gerontology is an area of study that focuses on these changes. It contributes to our understanding of both the physical and mental aspects of aging. Gerontology requires a multidisciplinary approach that includes biology, psychology, sociology, and more. This means that gerontologists work on various issues in many different fields. For example, some gerontologists examine the social aspects of aging such as finding hobbies, maintaining friendships, and living in retirement. Others help create medicine to combat illnesses and disorders that affect older adults, such as sleeping problems, depression, anxiety, Alzheimer's, and diabetes. Gerontology is a growing field that will become even more important in the future. The percentage of older adults in the world's population is higher than it has ever been, and will increase as medical progress extends our life expectancy. According to Statistics Korea, Koreans aged over 65 accounted for 13.2% of the country's population in 2016, and that percentage could reach 24.5% by 2030, and 41% by 2060. The world's population is aging: this demographic shift influences every aspect of society. There is more to explore in gerontology than you might imagine.

What would you do if the number of birds in your neighborhood seemed to be declining? Gabriella McCall, a high school senior and avid birder, began to worry that this was happening in her community in Puerto Rico. She also noticed that there was increased urban development in her neighborhood. Gabriella wondered if there might be a correlation between the two things and decided to investigate. As a first step, Gabriella sought to find out the number and type of birds living in her neighborhood. She documented her observations over time using notes and photographs. Upon completing her report, she decided to go public. Gabriella made a booklet and organized a photo exhibition to share the information she had collected with her community. She knew that the declining bird population would result in an imbalance in the local ecosystem, which would eventually affect the environment. Gabriella stressed to her community the importance of conducting city planning responsibly so as to ensure that humans, birds, and other animals can all flourish. Gabriella created a slide show and computer puzzle game to accompany her presentation. In this way, she was able to help elementary school children understand the need for bird conservation. Thanks to Gabriella's efforts, now a new generation of birders is waiting in the wings to continue her work on bird conservation.

During Black History Month, twelve-year-old Zach Hunter learned about the history of slavery in America. He was shocked when his teacher told the class that even in the twenty-first century, many people around the world live as slaves. In fact, it is estimated that there are millions of slave workers in mills and factories around the world, about half of whom are women and children. Zach knew his conscience would not let him sit by while others were forced to live this way. That's why he decided to start a fund-raising project to support organizations dedicated to ending modern-day slavery. However, Zach didn't request huge checks or $100 bills. Instead, he asked people for any loose change they found in their homes, cars, and pockets. Zach's idea caught on, and it wasn't long before others in his school started a collection for the cause. In fact, the idea was such a huge sensation that teens in schools all over the United States began piling up pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in support of this cause. Zach named his campaign "Loose Change to Loosen Chains." It has already raised thousands of dollars to free slaves around the world, and as the fund grows, it continues to gain momentum. Today, Zach speaks at high schools and other community meeting places around the United States. It is evident that his commitment is, quite literally, paying off. Young people around the country are picking up the campaign's signature yellow cup and collecting coins to end slavery ― all inspired by Zach's message: "We are the someone, and today is the day."

Cyberbullying is the act of using the Internet, smartphones, or other technological devices with the intent to hurt or embarrass another person. This happened to Samuel when he was in the eighth grade. He had stood up to a bully named Bradley, who had been ridiculing another student's broken English and outdated clothing style. Taking this stand, though, had just made Samuel the new target for Bradley's attacks. Soon, Samuel found his social media account covered with hateful comments and racial insults. He had no idea who to turn to for help. Instead of despairing, Samuel was inspired to cofound the End To Cyber Bullying (ETCB) organization so that students facing similar assaults would have access to help. The ETCB began as a modest website where Samuel and others could post information on cyberbullying. As visitors to the site began to tell their friends about it, however, it developed into one of the largest youth-driven projects in the world. It has helped offer comfort to thousands of cyberbullying victims of all ages. Perhaps the greatest obstacle Samuel faced in setting up the ETCB was his doubt about whether he would really be able to make a difference in the world. But now he encourages others not to wait for some time in the future to try to make a difference.

1번 지문

Rousseau was born in the town of Laval, in France's Loire Valley. After the death of his father in 1868, he moved to Paris to support his widowed mother. He got a job as a toll collector in 1871. It was at this time that he started to paint in his spare time as a hobby. He never received formal training. He taught himself to paint by copying paintings in the art museums of Paris or by sketching in the city's botanical gardens and the National Museum of Natural History. Rousseau openly claimed that he had "no teacher other than nature." Being a self-taught painter, Rousseau developed a highly personal style with an absence of correct proportions, a flat perspective, and the use of sharp, often unnatural, colors. His portraits and landscapes often have a childlike, "naive" quality, and some of his paintings look like scenes out of dreams. In 1893, at the age of 49, Rousseau retired from his job as a toll collector, and started to paint full time. Nevertheless, he became widely known by the nickname of Le Douanier (the customs officer), a reference to his old job.

2번 지문

Rousseau is best known for his jungle-themed paintings even though he never saw a jungle, or even left France. His knowledge of tropical plants and animals came mainly from the botanical gardens and zoos of Paris, as well as from academic sculptures and wildlife pictures. Rousseau once described his frequent visits to the botanical gardens as follows: "When I go into the glasshouses and I see the strange plants of exotic lands, it seems to me that I enter a dream." He also met with soldiers who had fought in the jungles of Mexico, and he listened to the stories of these men to gain inspiration for his jungle paintings. His first jungle-themed work was Tiger in a Tropical Storm, which shows a tiger preparing to jump on its prey in the middle of a raging thunderstorm. It was exhibited in 1891, and resulted in Rousseau's first serious review. Felix Vallotton, a fellow artist and critic, wrote: "His tiger surprising its prey ought not to be missed; it's the alpha and omega of painting." However, the uniqueness of Rousseau's style - the exaggerated scale, simplified forms, and blocks of vivid color - provoked mixed reactions. Despite the positive response to the painting from Vallotton, it was over a decade before Rousseau returned to the jungle as a major theme.

3번 지문

By 1905, his reputation had grown sufficiently to exhibit The Hungry Lion Throws Itself on the Antelope. This painting features a jungle scene lit by a deep red setting sun. In the foreground, a lion bites deeply into the neck of an antelope. Other animals are visible in the thick forest: a panther watches from the right, and an owl stares out of the background in the center, with a second bird and a dark ape-like shape to the left. Rousseau based the central pair of animals on a stuffed animal display in the National Museum of Natural History. Rousseau painted more than 25 pieces with jungle themes. Although his paintings seemed simple at first glance, they were built up carefully in layers, using a large number of green shades to capture the richness of the jungle. He also devised his own method for depicting rain by trailing strings of silver paint diagonally across the canvas. This technique inspired later artists. Rousseau's work earned the admiration of modern artists including Pablo Picasso. When Picasso happened upon a painting by Rousseau, the younger artist instantly recognized Rousseau's genius. In 1908, Picasso held a party to honor Rousseau and his work. However, in spite of his popularity among his fellow artists, Rousseau continued to be seen as a figure of amusement in the art world. It was only after his death in 1910, at the age of 66, that the name Henri Rousseau became famous. Although Rousseau took up art as a hobby, he managed to make his way to the top. Today, he is known as one of the greatest "naive art" painters.

Sumi: Hi, everyone. I've been working as an autonomous train programmer for five years now. Actually, I was a train conductor for the first five years. However, a single conference changed my whole perspective. It was the annual conference of the World Economic Forum in 2025, where a famous futurist talked about the Fourth Industrial Revolution and its consequences. I heard that there would no longer be any type of drivers in the near future, including train conductors, because of autonomous driving systems. So I boldly quit my job and started studying autonomous train driving programs. Very soon, there were massive numbers of unemployed workers in the train industry. If I hadn't studied autonomous programs, I might still be searching for a job. I was lucky that I was able to forecast the future correctly. My team recently had to reprogram the route of the Trans-Asian Railroad since it was newly connected to the railroad in Korea. You won't believe how easy it is now to get to countries that we used to think were so far away. It's amazing that not only can we take the train to get to all the beautiful places across Korea but also to those in Europe and Russia.

Wooju: I am currently working as a United Nations officer. My job is to promote the construction of smog-free buildings in big cities that work as large air purifiers utilizing patented ozone-free ion technology. When a building is made smog-free, it sucks in dirty air and filters it before it is released through the building's vents. This project started in 2020 and by next winter, 90 percent of all big cities will have developed the skills to be able to transform their buildings into smog-free ones. More than 180 countries are involved in the project and they all agree on how important it is to protect our environment in the face of rapid technology development. Last year, I had the chance to visit cities in India and China to see how their air quality had improved. I was astonished to find that the cities where air pollution levels used to be much higher than what's considered healthy by the World Health Organization, were no longer above these levels. I felt a real sense of fulfillment in my job when I heard that the number of patients with respiratory diseases is now much lower than a few years earlier. I don't want to imagine what might have been happening now to the earth's atmosphere if the UN had not taken any actions against air pollution. It would have been a disaster.

Juyoung: I'm so glad to have the opportunity to describe to my fellow alumni what I am currently working on. As a personalized AI robot engineer, I design and make medical service robots. AI has been quite a familiar subject for the past twenty years; however, what it is capable of now is beyond what we ever imagined. By utilizing big data and machine learning, medical AI is reshaping the world we live in and our relationships with technology. Patients with mild illnesses don't have to visit doctors because their personalized medical service robots know all of their histories and can make recommendations about treatments. I'm trying my best to widen the use of such robots at a relatively low cost. I hope that by 2040, all households will have acquired their own medical robots. Also, I give lectures to help different countries develop their own skills in building such robots. I have been invited to give several forums by the largest medical center in London, and when I visit London this time, I will have been there five times. Sometimes it's tough for me having to leap from one place to another every weekend, but whenever I see my robots helping to cure people who are ill, I am really humbled. I find my job completely rewarding.

Jinu: I am working as a smart apparel designer. Fashion designers had a hard time for a while after the invention of 3D printers, which allow people to print out their own clothes easily. It was indispensable for us to combine fashion and technology. I couldn't have done that if it hadn't been for the popularization of wearable Internet of Things (IoT) items. Inspired by IoT goods, I decided to design everyday clothes with biometric features, which means they can measure your heart rate and breathing rate, and also can measure how much sleep you are getting and how much stress you are under. I knew there were a few designers who were trying to design smart athletic wear, but none of them had expanded the idea of smart function to fashionable everyday clothes. After a long process of trial and error, I finally launched my own brand and it led me to win the Best New Designer award last year. These days I've been busy designing this year's new smart apparel collection. I feel very fortunate as a fashion designer because if it hadn't been for the development of Internet technology, fashion trends couldn't be what they are today. I think we are living in an era of amazing technologies.

Imagine there are two groups of people. In Group A, there are people with higher IQ scores, while the people in Group B have lower IQ scores. Each group is asked to solve some problems together within the group. Between the two groups, which one do you think will solve problems more quickly and accurately? You may predict that Group A will do better since the members of this group scored higher on the IQ tests. Surprisingly, however, Group B outperforms Group A. It turns out that Group A spends too much time debating instead of focusing on the task itself. The members assert their well-reasoned points of view while pointing out flaws in other members' logic. These individuals are very quick at finding potential problems and shutting down ideas. This fault-finding type of conversation causes unnecessary tension and competition and eventually hinders the team's effectiveness. What does this tell us? We easily assume that individuals with the highest capability invariably make perfect team members. However, many studies have shown that we should not be misled by individual intelligence. In fact, the key to making an ideal team is communication.

Title: Evidence for a Collective Intelligence Factor in the Performance of Human Groups

Purpose: to find out what makes a group more competent than others

Procedure: 1. Measure 699 people's individual intelligence.

2. Randomly assign the participants to groups.

3. Ask them to work in groups to complete tasks. (e.g., puzzles, brainstorming, making moral judgements)

The results of the research showed that there are certain factors that differentiated groups with high group intelligence from those with low group intelligence. Most importantly, these factors enabled effective communication, creating a motivating atmosphere. First, teams with higher group intelligence demonstrated a more equal distribution of conversational turn-taking. In other words, in these groups certain individuals did not dominate conversations and everyone contributed equally to the discussion. Second, members of these groups scored well on a test called "Reading the Mind," which measures how well people can read complex emotional states from people's faces. These people were socially sensitive enough to sense people's feelings during a discussion. This discovery led to the conclusion that when groups of such socially sensitive people worked together and were given equal opportunities to contribute, team members were more motivated to freely exchange ideas and appreciate other opinions, which guaranteed the team's success.

What boosts the impact of communication on a group's achievement is interdisciplinarity, or how diverse the group members are. Interdisciplinary groups are groups whose members specialize in a variety of fields of study. These groups tend to accomplish more than a group of just scientists or a group of only artists by mixing the best of the various fields. Steve Jobs was very well aware of the importance of communication among experts from various fields. He believed that the best work is created when people from different fields are connected together and when people with different backgrounds and knowledge encourage each other to think out of the box. He claimed that without such interaction, success would be very difficult to achieve. This very philosophy was reflected in the design of his animation studio. The original architectural plan called for three buildings, with separate offices for the computer scientists, the animators, and the CEOs. However, in order to encourage interaction among the employees, Jobs insisted that a single building be constructed with an airy space at its center. The purpose of creating this empty hall was to force the computer programmers and animators to collaborate and exchange ideas freely. That emphasis on communication, even though it came at the expense of convenience, was met with an unbelievable result: every one of the studio's animations has been a commercial success, with an average international profit of more than $550 million per animation from 1995 to 2011.

4번 지문

Communication among people with various backgrounds is especially necessary in the digital era, where it is almost impossible to be knowledgeable in more than one field due to the rapid expansion and changes in each field. When individuals' interdisciplinary knowledge is collected together, it becomes much more powerful than an encyclopedia written by a handful of experts. When such intelligence is brought together, it is called "collective intelligence." Although it has long been around us in many different forms, the Internet has created a new form of collective intelligence. Thanks to the Internet, knowledge and opinions have become very easy to share nowadays. People post what they know or how they feel about certain things on open pages, and not only can others look at these posts but they can also leave comments on them. Such active online communication of opinions and knowledge can sometimes be more accurate and meaningful than the opinion of one single expert. To sum up, many people mistakenly believe that highly capable individuals automatically make ideal group members. However, a number of studies have demonstrated that this is not necessarily true. What determines a group's success is communication rather than individual intelligence. When people care about other people's feelings and make sure that everyone participates evenly, their interaction is bound to produce a good result. Furthermore, connections between people with various kinds of knowledge ensure creative innovation and an unimaginable range of information. We always need geniuses. And we do benefit from experts working together. However, we should be aware that a group of average people with diverse backgrounds who are willing to communicate is as important as, if not more than, the superstars.

The hanok, or traditional Korean house, is a Korean traditional dwelling that is both practical and beautiful. The hanok possesses a charm that represents the beauty of old Korea. The clay, stone, wood, and paper that make up the house are obtained locally from nature. Wood is used in support beams, doors, windows, and the floor. The walls are a mixture of straw and clay. Hanji, traditional Korean paper made from the bark of the mulberry tree, is glued to the doors, windows, and floors. The floor is polished with bean oil after it has been covered with Hanji which keeps the floor dry. So eco-friendly and enjoyable is a hanok that an increasing number of foreign tourists are choosing to stay at hanok guest houses. Why don't you experience what it feels like to stay in a traditional Korean house? We can provide a list of places to visit for an overnight hanok-stay.

Many jars which are lined up in our garden are called onggi and have been made scientifically so that air can move through the tiny holes on the surface while water cannot. This helps food in the onggi stay delicious for a long time. Only through these tiny holes in the onggi is fermentation possible. The fermentation process is one of the many ways which have helped Korean dishes gain its unique flavors. For more than 300 years, the women in our family have been using these containers to store foods such as soy sauce, red pepper paste, bean paste, salted seafood, and other traditional Korean fermented foods. Onggi represents Korea's advanced food culture based on the country's earlier agricultural lifestyle. The best dish at Sol Hanok is gimchi-jjigae made with gimchi and gochujang. It is served in hot stone bowls, called dolsot. Food inside a dolsot remains nice and hot throughout the meal. Indeed, so hot is the inside of a dolsot that anything that comes into contact with it will sizzle. This is why a dolsot is good for serving rice as well. That is, the rice will stick to the inside of the dolsot and turn into a nice golden brown color.

While staying at Sol Hanok, l got to know more about Korean culture. Staying at the house was so impressive that I will recommend that my friends in Argentina stay at a hanok when they visit Korea. My special experience of doing gimjang, making and sharing gimchi, was a great memory for me. Gimjang is the gimchi-making season that occurs around November, and is one of Korea's traditions about preparing food for winter. We washed the cabbages, prepared ingredients, preserved the cabbages with salt for a day, made seasonings and put the seasonings inside the cabbages. We worked all day long, and even outside in the cold. It sure was hard work, but we felt happy because the neighbors and relatives of Sol Hanok host could get together. During the work, we never stopped smiling. It was so fun and exciting for me that I felt gimjang was just like a social gathering. I was able to learn that gimjang is an excellent opportunity to strengthen family cooperation and the Korean people's spirit of sharing. It is deeply rooted in the culture and traditions of Korea and is an important part of Korean identity. In December 2013, gimjang was listed by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage. For Koreans, gimjang is not just about making gimchi but about sharing a feeling of togetherness.
