Dear residents, we are writing to explain how ①to separate food waste correctly in our building. Many people still throw food waste into the general trash, ②which causes bad smells. Therefore, this notice describes the exact steps you should follow every day. First, please use the special yellow bin near the parking lot for all food scraps. Fruit peels, vegetable ends, and leftover rice belong in this bin, not in a plastic bag. However, hard items such as eggshells and bones must go into the general trash instead. In addition, please drain excess liquid from your food waste before ③throwing it away. This simple habit, ④which only takes a few seconds, keeps the area clean and dry. For example, tea bags should never ⑤being placed in the food waste bin. Thank you for helping our neighborhood stay pleasant.

For our club's spring project, we ①were told to create a sculpture using only materials collected from the school's recycling bins, and my first reaction was disappointment at not being allowed to buy proper art supplies. Sorting through flattened cardboard, broken umbrella frames, and plastic bottle caps, I initially ②saw nothing but trash. My perspective shifted once a senior member showed me a piece she ③had built the previous year, a bird made entirely of bent bicycle spokes and bottle caps, each cap functioning as a single feather. She explained that upcycling art forces a creator ④noticing a material's natural shape and texture rather than simply painting over it, which often produces more original results than starting with a blank, expensive canvas. By the end of the project, our team had built a small forest of figures using nothing that anyone had paid for, and the exhibit visitors seemed more curious about our materials than about any technique we ⑤had used.

Heatstroke happens when the body's temperature ①rises too high and cannot cool itself down. To prevent heatstroke, you should drink plenty of water throughout the day, ②even if you do not feel thirsty. If you notice symptoms such as dizziness or a very high body temperature, ③move to a shaded place immediately. Children, ④who sweat less than adults, are especially at risk of heatstroke. It is also wise ⑤avoiding outdoor activities between noon and five o'clock, when the sun is strongest.

Child safety experts now argue that this advice is too simple ①to be useful, since most children will inevitably need to interact with unfamiliar adults, whether asking a store employee for help or greeting a new neighbor. A more effective approach focuses on specific situations rather than people in general, ②teaching children to recognize behavior that feels wrong, such as an adult asking a child to keep a secret from parents. Role-playing these scenarios in advance ③helps children respond quickly under pressure, rather than freezing because the situation feels unfamiliar and confusing. Experts also emphasize that children should be taught they will never get in trouble for ④refusing an adult's request or for loudly saying no in public, since hesitation ⑤causing by politeness can cost precious seconds in a genuine emergency.

Sunny Beach Rentals is now open for the summer season, ①offering a wide range of water equipment for visitors. Customers can rent items such as beach umbrellas, folding chairs, snorkeling gear, and paddleboards ②at affordable daily rates. To rent equipment, visitors simply need to show identification and pay a small deposit, ③which is fully refunded when the items are returned in good condition. Reservations ④made online receive a ten percent discount compared to walk-in rentals. Renters are asked ⑤returning all items by six in the evening, since the shop closes shortly after sunset.

Many teachers and parents worry that today's teenagers are losing the ability to read long, complex texts. National test scores show a slow decline in reading comprehension over the past ten years, and some experts blame smartphones and short videos for shortening students' attention spans. Other researchers disagree with this simple explanation. They point out that teenagers today read constantly, just in different forms, such as text messages, captions, and online articles. According to this view, the real problem is not that students read less overall, but that _______________. A team of researchers recently found that students who read at least one full book every month scored noticeably higher on comprehension tests than students who mainly read short online posts.

Food poisoning cases increase sharply during the hot summer months because ___________. To protect yourself, wash your hands before preparing food, cook meat and eggs thoroughly, and keep perishable food in the refrigerator rather than leaving it out at room temperature.

Attention, students and teachers! Our school is starting a new campaign called 'Bring Your Own Bag.' Starting next Monday, the school store will no longer offer free plastic bags to customers. Instead, we encourage everyone to bring a reusable shopping bag from home. Plastic bags, which are made from petroleum, take hundreds of years to break down in the environment. In contrast, a cloth bag can be used again and again for many years. Therefore, using a reusable bag is _______________. For example, students who bring their own bags will receive a small sticker as a reward. However, students who forget their bags may still purchase a paper bag for a small fee. We hope every student will join this easy and meaningful campaign. Thank you for helping our school become greener.

Turning off lights when you leave a room seems like a tiny action, but _______________. Every light left on in an empty room wastes electricity that could have powered something useful elsewhere. For example, a single classroom light left on overnight can waste enough energy to charge dozens of phones. This habit is similar to leaving a faucet running while you brush your teeth, where water flows out for no reason. Both actions seem harmless in the moment, but they add up to a serious waste over time. Some students argue that a single light does not make much difference. However, when an entire school forms this habit together, the total amount of saved energy becomes significant. Therefore, this small daily habit can create a surprisingly large positive effect for the whole planet.

This combination cools rooms more efficiently while using less power than an air conditioner alone. The city government has launched a summer energy-saving campaign to reduce electricity use during the hottest months. ( ① ) To prevent blackouts, residents are asked to set air conditioners no lower than twenty-six degrees Celsius. ( ② ) Turning off lights and unplugging unused electronics can also make a noticeable difference. ( ③ ) The campaign encourages people to use fans together with air conditioners. ( ④ ) Families who reduce their electricity use by more than ten percent compared to last summer will receive a discount on their next bill. ( ⑤ ) Community centers will hold information sessions to teach simple energy-saving tips.
