Building a career portfolio is a great way ①to track your growth throughout high school. A portfolio is simply a collection of your achievements, activities, and reflections. Start by ②choose a format, such as a folder, a notebook, or a digital file. Next, include items ③that show your interests and skills, such as club activities and volunteer work. For each item, write a short reflection explaining what you learned. A well-organized portfolio not only ④helps you apply for programs or scholarships, but it also ⑤helps you understand your own growth over time.

The job market has changed dramatically over the past few decades. Many tasks once done entirely by humans are now shared with machines and computer programs. As a result, some traditional jobs have slowly ①appeared, while entirely new positions have emerged to replace them. Workers who once relied on a single skill for their whole career now often need to learn new tools. A graphic designer today must ②understand digital software that did not exist twenty years ago. Adapting to these changes can feel ③stressful, but experts note that workers who stay flexible and keep learning tend to ④succeed regardless of which industry they choose. The ability to adapt may be more valuable than any single specific ⑤skill.

A goal should be specific, meaning you describe exactly what you want to do instead of using ①vague words. It should also be measurable, so you can check your progress with clear numbers such as pages read or minutes exercised. Being achievable means the goal ②fits your current situation and is not too difficult to reach. A relevant goal truly ③matters to your life and interests, and a time-bound goal has a clear deadline that pushes you to take action instead of waiting. Setting goals this way turns vague wishes into ④unclear plans, which are much ⑤easier to follow through every single day.

Many students take a career aptitude test at some point in high school. This test is ①designed to measure a person's interests, strengths, and personality traits. It does not simply tell students which job to choose; instead, it helps them ②understand themselves better. For example, a student who enjoys solving problems might discover a ③hidden interest in engineering. However, the results should be used only as a guide, not as a ④temporary answer. Therefore, students should treat the test as a useful starting point, rather than a fixed decision that ⑤limits their future choices.

Last January, Minji decided that she would run three kilometers every morning before school, but after a few cold mornings, she began oversleeping and soon stopped running altogether. By February, she felt disappointed and believed she simply lacked willpower. One evening, her older brother asked her why the plan had failed, and together they looked closely at her daily schedule. They realized that running before sunrise in freezing weather had been too difficult to maintain. So Minji changed her plan and decided to run after school instead, when the weather was warmer and she had more energy. This experience taught her that ___________.

For many students, the walk to school feels so routine that safety becomes an afterthought, yet a surprising number of accidents occur within a few blocks of the school gate. (A) Wearing dark clothing during these hours can make a student almost invisible until a car is dangerously close. (B) This shortcut becomes especially risky during the darker months, when a driver's ability to spot a pedestrian drops sharply well before sunrise or after sunset. (C) Part of the danger comes from convenience: students often cut across a busy street rather than walking the extra minute to the nearest crosswalk, assuming they can judge the traffic gap correctly.

A planner is only useful if you actually use it well throughout the year, not just on January first. (A) For example, checking off completed tasks each morning helps you build momentum and stay motivated throughout the week. (B) Reviewing your notes every Sunday allows you to notice patterns and adjust your goals for the following week. (C) The most important step is to write one clear, specific goal at the top of each month.

Every spring, the volunteer club at our school introduces new members to its most popular project: the nursing home visit program. (A) For example, one member always brings her ukulele and plays simple songs that the residents remember from their youth. (B) As a result, both the students and the elderly residents look forward to these visits every month. (C) During each visit, members are encouraged to bring a small talent or hobby to share with the residents.

Attention all club leaders: applications for the club budget are now open. If your club wants support for materials, events, or competitions, please follow the steps below. (A) Third, submit the completed form to the teacher in charge of student activities by August 14th. Applications received after the deadline will not be accepted. (B) Once submitted, each request will be reviewed by the budget committee, which meets every Friday. Approved clubs will receive their funds within two weeks, and results will be posted on the club bulletin board. (C) First, download the budget request form from the school website and fill in your club's name, purpose, and requested amount. Second, attach a short plan explaining how the money will be used, since forms without a clear plan will not be reviewed.

For this reason, it is best to plan ahead and pick your favorite show first. This year's Club Festival will be held in the school gym and nearby classrooms next Friday. ( ① ) Visitors should first pick up a program map at the entrance to find each club's booth. Art and photography clubs will show their work in Classroom 201. Dance and music clubs will perform on the gym stage. ( ② ) Performances start every thirty minutes, so guests should arrive five minutes early. ( ③ ) Because seating is limited, latecomers may need to stand at the back. ( ④ ) Visitors may take photos, but please turn off the camera flash during performances. Food will be sold outside the gym, but drinks cannot be brought into the exhibition rooms. ( ⑤ ) If you have questions, staff members wearing yellow vests will be glad to help. We hope everyone enjoys discovering what our clubs have worked on this semester.
