1. 문장 구조 분석 (내신 핵심 문법 중심)

(1) Despite the cultural trope depicting emotions as the opposite of rational thought, cognition ― what we commonly refer to as thinking ― is actually a key building block of emotion.
Despite + 명사구 : 양보의 전치사 (~에도 불구하고).
depicting emotions as the opposite of rational thought : 현재분사구trope를 수식.
what we commonly refer to as thinking : 동격의 명사절 (cognition을 다시 설명).
어휘: depict (묘사하다), refer to A as B (A를 B로 부르다), cognition (인지), rational (이성적인)

(2) How we think about our circumstances shapes the emotions we experience; then those emotions echo back to influence how we think.
How we think... : 명사절 주어.
→ 세미콜론(;) 뒤는 독립절 연결 (결과 관계).
echo back to influence~ : “되돌아와 ~에 영향을 주다.”
어휘: circumstance (상황), shape (형성하다), echo back (되돌아오다)

(3) For instance, if you walk into a test thinking you are bad at taking tests, your anxiety will be increased.
if절 : 조건절.
thinking you are bad at taking tests : 분사구문 (동시 동작 표현).
will be increased : 수동태의 미래시제.
어휘: anxiety (불안), increase (증가하다)

(4) Then you don’t feel good about your performance on the test, and that becomes evidence for continuing to think that you’re bad at test taking.
for continuing to think : 전치사 + 동명사.
that you’re bad at test taking : 명사절think의 목적어.
어휘: performance (성취), evidence (증거)

(5) In this way there’s simply no pulling emotion and cognition apart.
no pulling A and B apart : “A와 B를 분리하는 것은 없다.”
there is no + 동명사 : 불가능 표현.
어휘: pull apart (분리하다), simply (단순히, 전혀)

(6) This bi-directionality of cognition and emotion allows us to adjust difficult emotions by changing the way we think.
bi-directionality : “양방향성”.
by changing~ : 전치사 by + 동명사 (수단 표현).
어휘: adjust (조정하다), difficult (어려운)

(7) By thinking differently ― I get nervous sometimes, but I’m still a good test taker, or that nervous feeling is just excitement and anticipation, it means I’m ready ― you can work those pathways to your advantage.
By thinking differently : 전치사구 (방법/수단).
work A to one’s advantage : “A를 유리하게 활용하다.”
어휘: differently (다르게), anticipation (기대), advantage (이점)
