Our photography club meets every Thursday, and our advisor always ①repeats the same instruction before we leave campus: put the camera down for the first ten minutes and simply look around. At first this rule frustrated me, since I ②had join the club specifically to take pictures, not to stand around empty-handed. Over time, though, I noticed that the members who followed her advice most closely ③tended to bring back the most interesting photographs. Instead of snapping dozens of rushed shots of the first flower or building they saw, they waited for a specific moment and ④captured only that. A camera, our advisor explained, cannot teach a person what is worth noticing; it can only record what the photographer has already ⑤decided matters.

Minjun used to leave half of his lunch tray full of ①untouching rice and vegetables every day. Last spring, his class started a campaign ②called "Clean Plate Day" to reduce food waste. However, his teacher explained that leftover food thrown away every day ③adds up to a huge amount of waste. She compared uneaten food to money ④dropped carelessly on the street, which nobody bothers to pick up. He decided to take only what he could finish and ⑤to try new vegetables slowly.

Dear residents, this notice explains how to use our apartment recycling area ①correctly. The recycling area, located behind the main entrance, is open every day from six to ten in the evening. First, sort your items into the ②labeled sections for paper, plastic, glass, and cans before dropping them off. Boxes should be flattened, and bottles should be emptied, because dirty items are ③hard to recycle. However, please do not leave ④small furniture or electronics in this area at any time. Instead, contact the management office to arrange a separate pickup for those bulky items. For example, broken chairs and old refrigerators require a special sticker before collection. In contrast to ordinary trash, recyclable materials must never be mixed together in one bag. Following these simple rules keeps our shared space ⑤tidy for every family.

Students often groan when a classic novel appears on their reading list, complaining that the language feels old-fashioned and the plot moves too ①slowly. It is true that classic literature can be ②easier to read than a modern bestseller written in casual, everyday language. Yet this very difficulty is part of why classics remain valuable for young readers today. Working through unfamiliar sentence patterns and vocabulary trains the brain to handle ③complex texts, a skill that transfers directly to other subjects and to standardized tests. Beyond language training, classic novels also explore themes such as jealousy, ambition, and loss that have not changed much across ④centuries. Readers often discover that a character written hundreds of years ago struggles with feelings that still feel ⑤familiar today.

Traffic safety data tell a different story: most fatal crashes occur within a few kilometers of home, on roads drivers know so well that they let their guard down. In a collision, a body traveling at a moderate speed continues moving forward at that same speed until something stops it, and without a seatbelt, that something is often the windshield or the dashboard rather than a slower deceleration. _______________. Despite decades of public awareness campaigns, seatbelt use for backseat passengers remains lower than for those sitting in the front.

Sorting your trash correctly is one of the simplest habits that protect our environment. (A) For example, plastic bottles should be rinsed and have their caps removed before being thrown away. Paper soaked with food or oil, however, cannot be recycled and must go into general waste. (B) Likewise, mixing recyclables with ordinary trash makes the whole recycling process complicated. Many students believe that sorting trash takes too much time, but it actually requires only a few extra seconds. Therefore, learning these basic rules now helps you build a habit that benefits your entire community. (C) When you separate paper, plastic, glass, and cans, recycling centers can process each material more efficiently. Sorting garbage is similar to organizing a closet, where each type of clothing has its own shelf. If items are mixed together carelessly, finding what you need later becomes difficult.

Many students imagine a librarian simply sitting behind a desk and stamping books. (A) According to Ms. Han, the most rewarding moment is not organizing shelves but watching a student who once avoided reading finally ask for a second book in the same series. (B) Ms. Han, who has worked at a school library for over ten years, says that image is far from accurate, since a large part of her job involves choosing which new books to buy. (C) She also spends hours training students to search databases and judge whether an online source is trustworthy, a skill she considers just as important as reading itself.

Building a reading habit does not usually start with a big decision to read more. (A) It often starts with very small, easy steps, such as keeping a book in a bag or choosing a fixed time each day to read for just ten minutes. (B) These small routines work because they lower the effort needed to begin; once a student opens a book, continuing to read feels much easier than starting did. (C) Over weeks, these tiny actions add up, and reading slowly becomes something the student simply does, rather than something the student has to force.

주어진 문장: This activity, called plogging, combines jogging with cleaning up litter from the streets. Last spring, Minji joined a new club at her school called the Green Runners. Every Saturday morning, the members jog around the neighborhood park while picking up trash. ① At first, Minji felt embarrassed to pick up garbage in front of other people. ② However, she soon realized that her small actions were making the park cleaner and healthier. ③ For example, the group collected more than twenty bags of trash during their first month together. Picking up litter while running is like turning an ordinary workout into a meaningful mission. ④ Minji's legs grew tired, but her heart felt proud after every session. Now, she encourages her friends, who used to tease her, to join the club as well. ⑤ Minji believes that small habits, practiced together, can change a whole community.

This simple comparison shows why learning the meaning of each symbol truly matters. Every plastic product carries a small recycling mark, but few students know what these marks mean. ① Each symbol contains a number that shows what material the item is made of. ② For instance, the number one usually stands for clear plastic bottles, while the number five represents thicker containers like yogurt cups. ③ Reading these marks is similar to reading nutrition labels on snacks, which tell you exactly what is inside. Without checking the label, you might buy something unhealthy by mistake. ④ Likewise, throwing plastic away without checking its mark can send a reusable item straight to a landfill. Some marks even show that a material cannot be recycled at all, so it must be sorted separately. ⑤ Therefore, taking a few seconds to check the mark before throwing something away makes recycling far more effective for everyone involved.
