Summer brings a wide variety of delicious fruits, but many of them ①spoil quickly in the heat. Fruits such as watermelon and melon should be kept in the refrigerator once they ②are cut, since exposure to warm air speeds up spoiling. Berries are especially delicate and should not ③washing until just before eating, because moisture encourages mold to grow. Bananas turn black quickly in cold air, so they are best ④kept on the counter. Wrapping cut fruit tightly in plastic wrap also helps keep it ⑤fresh longer.

Jihun made a resolution ①to study English for two hours every day. For the first three days, he studied exactly as planned and ②felt proud of himself. However, on the fourth day, he skipped his study time because he was too exhausted, and within a week, his resolution had disappeared. ③Feeling disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister about it, and she suggested that he ④try a smaller, more realistic goal instead of a large one. Following her advice, he changed his plan to studying English for only twenty minutes each night, and this small goal felt less overwhelming, so he managed ⑤keeping it every day for a month.

Our school will hold the New Year Goal Presentation Day on Friday, January 30th, in the main auditorium. Every student is ①invited to share one personal goal for this year in front of classmates and teachers. Each presentation should last no longer than two minutes and may include a poster or simple props to explain the goal ②clearly. Students who wish to participate must submit a ③short outline to their homeroom teacher by January 23rd. Prizes will be given for the most ④creative goal and the most inspiring presentation, chosen by a panel of teachers. Participation is completely ⑤mandatory, so students who prefer not to present are still welcome to attend and watch.

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. At first, I assumed busking was simply a way for musicians to earn a little ①pocket money, but watching him more closely changed my mind. He does not merely play requests; he studies the mood of the crowd and ②adjusts his set list on the spot, slowing down for a tired evening walker or speeding up when children start dancing nearby. Unlike a concert hall performance, a street show has no fixed stage and no guaranteed ③audience, 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, one that depends as much on ④ignoring people as it does on playing an instrument, which is why I now find busking far more ⑤impressive than I originally expected.

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 sure that mine was not good enough to hang beside theirs. My art teacher noticed my hesitation and said something I did not expect: _______________. On the morning the paintings went up, I walked past dozens of styles, from careful realistic portraits to messy, colorful abstractions, and none of them looked like mine. 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 shared space.

Last Saturday, the temperature outside reached almost thirty-eight degrees, so my family decided to stay indoors for the entire day. At first, I worried that staying inside would be boring, but we found several fun activities to enjoy together, which proved that ___________. By the time we got home, I realized that indoor activities could be just as exciting as outdoor ones, especially during a heatwave.

Attention, students! Our school festival is going green this year, and we truly need your help. This event aims to reduce the disposable waste that usually piles up during the celebration. (A) First, please bring your own cup, plate, and utensils to every food booth you visit. Second, each booth should use reusable decorations rather than paper banners that get thrown away within hours. (B) If your booth needs supplies, please contact the student council office before Friday. Let us work together to create a festival that is both fun and eco-friendly. (C) Students who join as Green Helpers will manage the recycling stations, sorting cans, bottles, and paper carefully all day long. Therefore, everyone's small cooperation will directly lower the amount of trash sent to the landfill. However, single-use plastic bags are strictly prohibited at every booth this year.

That single moment made me forget my nervousness completely. Last spring, I joined a one-day job experience program at a local hospital. ( ① ) A kind nurse named Ms. Park showed me around the ward and explained her daily duties. ( ② ) At first, I was nervous about talking to real patients, but I helped an elderly patient find her room. ( ③ ) The busiest moment came when several patients needed attention at once, and the nurses worked together calmly. ( ④ ) I realized that teamwork matters as much as medical knowledge. ( ⑤ ) By the end of the day, my interest in nursing had grown even stronger.
