Every semester, students groan when the fire alarm rings for another routine drill, ①filing out of the building as if the exercise were simply a break from class. This casual attitude, however, overlooks why the drill exists in the first place. During an actual fire, thick smoke can fill hallways within minutes, ②cutting visibility to almost nothing and making it dangerously easy to panic or take a wrong turn. Repeating the same evacuation route again and again trains the body ③to move automatically, even when the mind is too frightened to think clearly. Firefighters note that students who ④have 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. A fire drill that feels pointless in the classroom can therefore ⑤becoming the very reason a real evacuation succeeds without injury.

Our school is starting a New Year Goal-Setting Campaign ①to help everyone begin the year with clear direction. During the first week of January, every student will receive a small goal card ②given by the homeroom teacher. On this card, write one personal goal for the new year, along with two simple steps ③to achieve it. After completing your card, submit it to your homeroom teacher, and all goal cards ④will be displayed on the bulletin board outside the library. Students who show clear progress toward their goals will ⑤receiving a small prize during the morning assembly.

When people fail to reach a goal, they often feel embarrassed and want to give up. However, ___________. Some people believe failing means they simply lack ability, so they stop trying. Others see failure differently: they treat it as useful information that shows what needs to change. For example, a student who fails a math test might ask the teacher which questions were weak points and study those areas more carefully.

At first, Minji did not know how to fix the tension she had caused during rehearsals. (A) Soon, other members began doing the same, and rehearsals felt warmer than before. (B) She decided to start each practice by praising one small thing a classmate had done well. (C) The next day, she tried her new idea, and the room grew quiet as everyone listened.

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. (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. (C) 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.

The Hopeful Start Workshop offers a simple way for students to plan their new year goals. (A) First, the workshop will run from two to four in the afternoon on January 10th at the Green Hill Community Center. (B) During the session, participants will learn how to write specific, measurable goals and break them into small weekly steps. (C) Finally, students who wish to join should register online or call the front desk before January 8th, since seats are limited to thirty people.

Seatbelts are so woven into the experience of riding in a car that many passengers buckle them without thinking, yet a surprising number of teenagers still skip them for short trips, assuming that a five-minute drive to a friend's house does not carry much risk. (A) 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. (B) 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. (C) A seatbelt spreads the force of a sudden stop across the stronger parts of the body, such as the hips and chest, instead of concentrating it on the head and neck.

주어진 문장: This is because clear goals give the brain a specific target to focus on. Have you ever wondered why some people stay motivated while others give up quickly? ( ① ) The answer often lies in whether they have a clear goal. ( ② ) When people have no specific goal, they usually feel confused about where to start, and their interest fades within days. ( ③ ) For example, a student who simply decides to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too vague. ( ④ ) In contrast, a student who sets a clear goal, such as raising an English score by ten points, knows exactly what to do every day. ( ⑤ ) A clear goal also makes progress easy to measure, and noticing small improvements keeps people encouraged.

주어진 문장: So even complete beginners are always welcome to join us. Are you curious about capturing special moments around our school? The Photography Club is now looking for new members for this semester. ① We meet every Wednesday afternoon in Room 204, right after regular classes end. No experience is required, since senior members always teach the basics of using a camera. ② Each month, we choose a simple theme and take pictures together around the campus. ③ At the end of the semester, we hold a small exhibition to share our favorite photos. Members are also expected to bring their own camera or smartphone to every meeting. ④ If you enjoy taking pictures or want to try something new, please visit our booth this Friday. ⑤ Feel free to ask any current member if you have questions about joining.

That single feature, the ability to undo, turned out to change how boldly people were willing to experiment. Last year our art club received a set of digital drawing tablets, and I assumed switching from paper would feel like cheating, since a screen seemed to remove the physical struggle of real drawing. ( ① ) After a few weeks of practice, though, I noticed the tablet demanded a different kind of skill rather than an easier one. ( ② ) Because there is no paper texture to guide the pen, beginners often press too hard or draw shaky lines until their hand adjusts to the smooth glass surface. ( ③ ) What the tablet does offer is the freedom to undo a mistake instantly and experiment with colors without wasting a single sheet of paper, which encourages artists to take risks they might avoid with a permanent ink pen. ( ④ ) Several club members who once avoided painting because they feared ruining their work now try bold new styles daily. ( ⑤ ) The tool changed, but the patience and observation required to create something meaningful stayed exactly the same.
