When temperatures drop below freezing overnight, an invisible layer of black ice can form on sidewalks ①that look perfectly dry, catching even careful walkers off guard. Unlike a visibly icy patch, black ice reflects almost no light and blends into ordinary pavement, which is why so many falls happen on stretches that pedestrians ②would never suspect. Orthopedic doctors report a sharp rise in wrist and hip injuries every winter, most of them ③causing not by dramatic slips on icy hills but by a single unexpected step near a bus stop or a doorway. Walking with shorter, flatter steps and keeping the hands free rather than in pockets can ④help a person regain balance quickly if a foot suddenly slides. Choosing shoes with textured rubber soles rather than smooth ones also makes a difference, since even a small increase in grip can ⑤prevent a fall before it begins.

Many students imagine a librarian simply ①sit behind a desk and stamping books. Ms. Han, who has worked at a school library for over ten years, says that image is far from accurate. A large part of her job ②involves choosing which new books to buy, based on both student requests and current trends in youth literature. She also spends hours training students to search databases and judge whether an online source ③is trustworthy, a skill she considers just as important as reading itself. According to Ms. Han, the most rewarding moment is not organizing shelves but watching a student who once avoided reading finally ask for a second book in the same series. She admits that budgets are often tight and that new technology keeps ④changing how libraries operate. Still, she insists that the core purpose of her job has never ⑤changed.

When people ①fail to reach a goal, they often feel embarrassed and want to give up. However, the way a person thinks about failure can ②changing what happens next. Some people believe failing means they simply lack ability, ③which leads them to stop trying. Others see failure differently: they treat it as useful information ④that shows what needs to change. For example, a student who fails a math test might later ask the teacher which questions were weak points and ⑤study those areas more carefully.

A loud, jarring alert sound interrupting a phone's normal notifications usually means one thing: a government agency has issued an emergency text to everyone in a specific area, warning of anything from a flash flood to a missing child. These messages are designed to reach people instantly, without requiring anyone to download an app or subscribe to a service in advance, since _______________. Some residents complain that the alerts arrive too frequently or for events that feel minor, leading a small number of people to silence the notifications altogether.

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 _______________. Suji signed up for the photography club, though she had never taken photography seriously before. At the first meeting, older members taught her how to adjust a camera and find a good angle. Because everyone shared photos and gave friendly feedback each week, Suji gradually felt more comfortable with the other members. 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. By the end of the semester, Suji had a small group of friends who understood her sense of humor.

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. This activity, called plogging, combines jogging with cleaning up litter from the streets. At first, Minji felt embarrassed to pick up garbage in front of other people. However, _______________. 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. 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. Minji believes that small habits, practiced together, can change a whole community.

When someone's heart suddenly stops beating, the brain begins to suffer damage within minutes unless blood keeps circulating. Studies show that a person who receives CPR immediately from someone nearby is far more likely to survive than one who waits for professional help to arrive. Despite this, many people hesitate to start chest compressions, worried that they might break a rib or make the situation worse. Medical instructors respond to this fear: _______________. Modern CPR training has also been simplified, focusing on firm, rhythmic chest compressions rather than the more complicated combination of breaths and compressions once required.

Looking back at the goals I set last New Year, I can now see how much actually changed over the year.

주어진 문장: In contrast, turning off the tap during that time saves a surprising amount of water each day. Water looks endless when it flows from the tap every morning. ① However, clean water is actually a limited resource that we must protect carefully. Many families waste water without even noticing it in their daily routine. For example, leaving the tap running while brushing your teeth can waste several liters of water. ② Taking a shorter shower is another easy habit that reduces water use significantly. ③ Fixing a leaking faucet, which many people ignore, can also save hundreds of liters every month. ④ Saving water is like keeping money in a savings account for the future. Therefore, small changes in our daily habits, practiced by every family, can protect this precious resource. ⑤ Everyone who cares about the environment should start saving water today.
