Many students give up on their New Year goals because the goals feel too big ①to handle. A more effective approach is ②break a large goal into smaller, manageable steps. Instead of focusing on the entire year, try setting a goal for just one week, ③such as learning twenty new words. Once you complete that small step, ④move on to the next one, and gradually build toward the bigger goal. This method works because small tasks feel achievable, and completing them ⑤gives a sense of success.

Every day, people throw away piles of ①used paper without thinking about where it goes. However, most of that paper does not have to end up in a landfill. Instead, it can travel to a recycling factory and become brand new paper again. First, workers collect old newspapers, boxes, and notebooks left in recycling bins. These papers are then soaked in water and turned into ②hard, mushy pulp. You can think of this process like breaking a cookie back into flour and water. For example, ink and small pieces of plastic are ③removed from the pulp during this stage. The ④clean pulp is pressed into thin sheets and dried in large machines. Therefore, a wrinkled old newspaper can be ⑤reborn as clean white paper. In contrast to throwing paper away, recycling it saves trees and reduces waste.

Good morning, residents of Green Apartment! We would like to introduce a simple way to protect our environment. Used batteries, which contain harmful chemicals, should never be thrown away with regular trash. If these chemicals leak into the soil, they can pollute water and harm plants. Therefore, _______________. Please place your old batteries inside this box instead of the trash can. The box, which is emptied every month, is easy for anyone to use. For example, small button batteries from watches and toys can also be dropped in the box. However, batteries that are still working should not be thrown away at all. We appreciate your effort to keep our neighborhood clean and safe. Thank you for your cooperation and kindness.

Choosing the right club can shape how a student feels about school life. Many first-graders join a club simply because their friends are joining it. However, experts suggest that _______________. A club that matches your interest keeps you motivated during a busy exam period. It also helps to think about how much time each club actually requires. Some clubs meet only once a week, while others practice almost every day. Skill level matters too, since a few clubs accept only experienced students. For this reason, most schools allow a short trial period before a final decision. During this period, new members can attend meetings without officially signing up. In the end, a good club should feel like a comfortable break from academic pressure.

Visualization is a simple technique that many successful goal-setters use, and it works in several different ways. (A) For example, a student who dreams of studying abroad might create a board filled with campus photos and a list of specific steps. (B) First, picturing a goal in detail, either by drawing pictures or writing descriptions, keeps the goal fresh and meaningful in a person's mind. (C) In addition, this habit helps the brain notice opportunities related to the goal and can even lower anxiety about the unknown future.

(A) 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 that I belonged in this new school. (B) 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.

Are you curious about capturing special moments around our school? The Photography Club is now looking for new members for this semester.

주어진 문장: At first, she was not sure whether joining a new group would really help, but she decided to give it a try. 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. ① Suji signed up for the photography club, though she had never taken photography seriously before. ② At the first meeting, older members taught her how to adjust a camera and find a good angle. ③ Because everyone shared photos and gave friendly feedback each week, Suji gradually felt more comfortable with the other members. ④ 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. ⑤ By the end of the semester, Suji had a small group of friends who understood her sense of humor.

주어진 문장: Still, reading six books was better than the year before, and I felt proud of that small progress.
