Walking through the old industrial district downtown, I ①noticed that a gray concrete wall had been transformed overnight into a wild swirl of color, letters, and cartoon figures. Some residents complained to the city office, ②calling it vandalism and demanding that workers paint over it immediately. Others argued that the same wall had been an ugly, forgotten eyesore for years, and that the graffiti artist had simply given it a voice no one else ③bothered to give it. This disagreement reveals a tension at the heart of street art: without permission, even a skillful and thoughtful piece can ④labeling a crime, yet many cities now invite graffiti artists to paint designated walls legally. The line between vandalism and art, it seems, often depends less on the paint itself than on who ⑤gave permission to use the wall.

Online courses have become a popular way for students ①to learn practical job skills outside of school. Unlike traditional classes, these courses let learners ②study at their own pace and repeat difficult lessons as many times as needed. Many courses also include practical projects, ③allow students to build a portfolio while they learn. Experts recommend ④setting a fixed weekly schedule and finishing small assignments regularly. Choosing a course with clear reviews and a well-organized structure also matters, because poorly designed courses can ⑤waste valuable time.

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 personal ①interest should always come before friendship. A club that matches your interest keeps you ②motivated during a busy exam period. It also helps to think about how much time each club actually ③requires. Some clubs meet only once a week, while others practice almost every day. Skill level matters too, since a few clubs accept only ④inexperienced 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 ⑤comfortable break from academic pressure.

Every spring, our school holds an art exhibition in the main hallway, and this year I finally submitted a painting of my own. For weeks, I compared my work to my classmates' drawings and felt ①sure that mine was not good enough to hang beside theirs. My art teacher noticed my ②hesitation and said something I did not expect: an exhibition is not a contest to find the single best picture, but a chance to show how differently people see the same world. On the morning the paintings went up, I walked past dozens of styles, from careful realistic portraits to ③boring, colorful abstractions, and none of them looked like mine. Instead of feeling embarrassed, I found myself ④curious about why each artist had made certain choices. Standing in that crowded hallway, I finally understood that the exhibition's real purpose was not to rank the paintings, but to let students discover how many different perspectives could exist in a single ⑤shared space.

Good morning, residents of Green Apartment! We would like to introduce a simple way to protect our environment. Used batteries, which contain ①harmful chemicals, should never be thrown away with regular trash. If these chemicals leak into the soil, they can pollute water and harm plants. Therefore, our building has ②installed a special collection box for used batteries near the main entrance. Please place your old batteries inside this box instead of the trash can. The box, which is emptied every month, is ③easy 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 ④broken should not be thrown away at all. We appreciate your effort to keep our neighborhood ⑤clean and safe. Thank you for your cooperation and kindness.

On Saturday afternoons, the small square near my house fills with the sound of a street guitarist who sets up his amplifier beside the fountain. (A) Unlike a concert hall performance, a street show has no fixed stage and no guaranteed audience, so the musician must win people's attention within the first few seconds or lose them to their phones. This constant negotiation between performer and passerby, I realized, is itself a kind of art. (B) He does not merely play requests; he studies the mood of the crowd and adjusts his set list on the spot, slowing down for a tired evening walker or speeding up when children start dancing nearby. (C) At first, I assumed busking was simply a way for musicians to earn a little pocket money, but watching him more closely changed my mind.

Stairs seem too ordinary to be dangerous, which is why many people treat them carelessly, texting, carrying an armful of books, or skipping two steps at a time. (A) Familiarity encourages a kind of autopilot mode, in which a person stops looking at each step and instead relies on memory of where the stairs should be. (B) Safety officials recommend a few unglamorous habits: keep one hand free, use the handrail, and turn on the light before stepping onto a dark staircase. (C) Emergency room records tell a different story: falls on stairways send more people to the hospital each year than almost any other household accident.

Interviewing people who already work in a field you are interested in can be very helpful. (A) They can also share honest advice about the challenges of the job, which you rarely find in books. (B) Such interviews let you hear firsthand stories about what a career is really like. (C) For this reason, many career guidance classes now include interview projects as part of their curriculum.

주어진 문장: In other words, the paper completely loses its original shape and becomes a soft, wet mixture. Every day, people throw away piles of used paper without thinking about where it goes. ① 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. ② First, workers collect old newspapers, boxes, and notebooks left in recycling bins. These papers are then soaked in water and turned into soft, mushy pulp. ③ You can think of this process like breaking a cookie back into flour and water. For example, ink and small pieces of plastic are removed from the pulp during this stage. ④ The clean pulp is pressed into thin sheets and dried in large machines. Therefore, a wrinkled old newspaper can be reborn as clean white paper. ⑤ In contrast to throwing paper away, recycling it saves trees and reduces waste.

For example, bandages, pain relievers, and any personal medication should be included. Summer vacation is a great time to go camping with family or friends.

( ③ ) Second, bring sunscreen and insect repellent to protect your skin. ( ④ ) Third, prepare a small first aid kit for emergencies.
