Many students set a New Year goal ①to build a new habit, such as reading every night or exercising each morning. However, most people give up within two weeks because the habit still ②feels difficult. Researchers ③who studied this process found that, on average, a new habit takes about sixty-six days to feel automatic. During the first few weeks, your brain still treats the activity as something new, so you must ④rely on willpower. This is why experts suggest ⑤repeat a small action every single day, rather than aiming for a perfect performance right away.

Dear members of the Debate Club, I am writing to let you know that our ①irregular meeting time has been changed. We usually meet in Room 304 every Wednesday after school, but the room will be used for sports day ②practice next week. Instead, our meeting will be held in the library on Thursday at the same time. Please bring the debate topic that you ③prepared last week, since we will practice our arguments together. If you ④cannot attend the new meeting time, please reply to this email by Tuesday evening. We also need two volunteers to arrange the chairs and tables before the meeting begins. Mr. Park, our club advisor, will join us this time to give ⑤feedback on our speaking skills.

Jihun made a resolution to study English for two hours every day, and for the first three days, he followed his plan perfectly. However, on the fourth day, he skipped his study time because he was too exhausted, and his resolution soon disappeared completely. Feeling disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister, who told him that _______________. Following her advice, Jihun changed his plan to studying English for only twenty minutes each night, and this small goal felt much less overwhelming. He kept it every day for a month and eventually reached his original goal.

On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. Every table had a banner, and members called out to new first-graders like me. My friend Somin dragged me toward the robotics club, insisting it would suit me. However, the long list of coding projects looked too complicated for a beginner. Just then, I noticed a quiet table where students were sketching posters together. A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners. She showed me a sketchbook filled with simple drawings by first-year members. Her gentle voice made me feel relaxed for the first time that day. Without much thought, I wrote my name on the sign-up sheet before leaving. Walking out of the gym, I finally felt _______________.

Whenever people discuss the future of reading, one debate never seems to end: e-books or paper books? Supporters of e-books point out that a single device can hold thousands of titles, which makes traveling with a full library incredibly light. Fans of paper books, however, argue that something important is lost on a screen: _______________. Screens also invite distraction, since a single notification can pull a reader away from the story in seconds. Interestingly, several recent surveys suggest that most young readers do not choose one format forever.

When Suji transferred to a new school in March, she knew no one in her class and felt lonely during lunch and breaks. Her homeroom teacher suggested joining a club to make friends more easily. (A) One rainy afternoon, a fellow member, Hana, invited her to photograph the flooded schoolyard together. They laughed while trying to keep their cameras dry, and that moment grew into a real friendship. By the end of the semester, Suji had a small group of friends who understood her sense of humor. (B) Suji signed up for the photography club, though she had never taken photography seriously before. At the first meeting, older members taught her how to adjust a camera and find a good angle. (C) Because everyone shared photos and gave friendly feedback each week, Suji gradually felt more comfortable with the other members.

This January, our school will run a New Year Goal-Setting Campaign for every student. (A) First, each student will receive a goal card in homeroom class and write one personal goal along with two steps to reach it. (B) Afterward, all the cards will be displayed on the bulletin board outside the library for everyone to see. (C) Once the card is complete, students must submit it to their homeroom teacher by January 9th.

주어진 문장: Each presentation should last no longer than two minutes and may include a poster or simple props to explain the goal clearly. Our school will hold the New Year Goal Presentation Day on Friday, January 30th, in the main auditorium. ( ① ) Every student is invited to share one personal goal for this year in front of classmates and teachers. ( ② ) Students who wish to participate must submit a short outline to their homeroom teacher by January 23rd. ( ③ ) The event will begin at two o'clock and will end with light refreshments for everyone who attended. ( ④ ) Prizes will be given for the most creative goal and the most inspiring presentation, chosen by a panel of teachers. ( ⑤ ) We hope this event will encourage students to think seriously about their goals and support one another throughout the new year.

None of this, she reminded us, has anything to do with the words a character actually says. Before a single line of dialogue is written for many animated shows, a character designer has already spent weeks deciding how that character should look, move, and be recognized at a glance. ( ① ) A visiting illustrator who spoke at our school explained that a truly successful design should be identifiable even as a plain black silhouette, since audiences often notice a character's outline before they notice any facial detail. ( ② ) She showed us early sketches of a now-famous cartoon hero, in which the same personality had been tested through dozens of different body shapes, from short and round to tall and angular, before the final version was chosen. ( ③ ) Small choices, she added, carry surprising weight: rounded shapes tend to feel friendly and safe, while sharp angles suggest danger or power, even to viewers who have never studied design. ( ④ ) I left the talk realizing that a character's personality is communicated through its silhouette long before it ever speaks a single word. ( ⑤ )
