When choosing a future career, students often face a common question: should I follow what I love, or what I ①being good at? Passion can provide strong motivation, ②pushing a person to practice for hours without feeling tired. However, loving an activity does not always mean a person will become skilled at it professionally. Natural talent can lead to quick success, but without genuine interest, that success may eventually feel ③empty or exhausting. Career experts suggest ④looking for an overlap between the two. Finding this balance takes time and self-reflection, but it often leads to a more ⑤satisfying and sustainable career.

Two years ago, I began volunteering at an animal shelter near my neighborhood on weekends. My tasks included feeding animals, cleaning cages, and helping visitors choose a pet to adopt. Over time, I noticed how much I ①enjoyed calming nervous or injured animals. One rainy afternoon, a frightened puppy refused to eat, and I sat quietly beside it for over an hour until it finally ②relaxed. Watching the puppy trust me changed something inside me. I began researching careers in veterinary medicine and animal behavior, subjects I had ③frequently considered before. My volunteer work, which started as a simple ④hobby, slowly turned into the ⑤clearest career direction I had ever found.

Central High School will host its annual career fair next Thursday. More than thirty companies will set up booths to introduce ①similar careers. Students can talk directly with workers from fields such as medicine, engineering, design, and media. Each booth will offer a short activity so visitors can ②experience a small part of the job. Teachers strongly ③encourage all students to attend. Meeting professionals in person often opens doors to careers students never ④considered before.

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. 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. 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. 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. I left the talk realizing that _______________.

Summer is the best time to enjoy swimming pools, rivers, and beaches with family and friends. However, water activities can be dangerous without proper preparation. That is why experts stress one point above all: ___________. First, always swim in areas supervised by a lifeguard, and never swim alone even if you are a strong swimmer. Second, check the weather and water conditions before entering the water, since strong currents and sudden storms make swimming risky. Third, wear a life jacket in open water such as a river or the sea, especially if you are a child or a beginner.

Many schools give students a list of recommended books at the start of each year. Choosing these books is not as simple as picking well-known titles. Teachers must think about a wide range of student interests, not just their own favorites. A good list should also include stories from different cultures and different kinds of characters, so that every student can find someone to relate to. Reading level matters too; a book that is too difficult can make a student give up on reading altogether, while a book that is too easy may feel boring. Teachers often ask students for feedback after they finish a book, and they slowly update the list based on what students actually enjoyed. In the end, _______________.

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.

Under such chaotic conditions, even a familiar hallway can suddenly feel like unknown territory. Every semester, students groan when the fire alarm rings for another routine drill, filing out of the building as if the exercise were simply a break from class. ( ① ) This casual attitude, however, overlooks why the drill exists in the first place. ( ② ) During an actual fire, thick smoke can fill hallways within minutes, cutting visibility to almost nothing and making it dangerously easy to panic or take a wrong turn. ( ③ ) Repeating the same evacuation route again and again trains the body to move automatically, even when the mind is too frightened to think clearly. ( ④ ) Firefighters note that students who have practiced an escape route calmly walk toward the nearest exit purely out of habit, while those unfamiliar with the building often freeze or hesitate at doorways. ( ⑤ ) A fire drill that feels pointless in the classroom can therefore become the very reason a real evacuation succeeds without injury.
