1. 다음 글에서 나타난 내용과 가장 일치하는 것은?
Chanting, which is the rhythmic recitation of a word or phrase, is used by cultures and religious groups for ritual, recreational and spiritual purposes. Recently, research has uncovered the tangible benefits of this time-honored practice. One study showed how the heart rate and blood pressure of chanters dip to their lowest of the day during the act of reciting melodic utterances. It also proved that even passively listening to it normalizes adrenalin levels and reduces cholesterol, demonstrating a wide range of physiological advantages. Another analysis done at Ohio’s Cleveland University looked at chanting’s impact on the brain. The researchers found that the rhythmic tones in chanting trigger the production and release of calming chemicals such as melatonin, while at the same time blocking the production of stress hormones. These processes were further enhanced if those speaking or singing the expressions were aware of their meanings.
① Decreased blood pressure is associated with listening to chanting.
② Fluctuating levels of adrenalin are found in those who chant regularly.
③ Chanting is demonstrated to have a relaxing effect on the brain.
④ Understanding the meaning of a chant does not impact its effectiveness.

2. 다음 글에서 전체적인 흐름과 관계없는 문장은?

Making small talk with strangers is a breeze for some, but for others it can be their worst nightmare. ① Awkward moments can be avoided by reminding yourself that most people enjoy being complimented. ② So the next time you find yourself not knowing what to say, make a positive comment about the other person’s haircut or clothing—anything, as long as it’s honest. ③ Asking for advice is a good way to shift the attention away from you and forces the other person to talk. ④ Not only will it make the other person feel good, but it will also break the ice and make him or her warm up to you more.
