Dear members of the Debate Club, I am writing to let you know that our regular meeting time ①has been changed. We usually meet in Room 304 every Wednesday after school, but the room will be used for sports day practice next week. Instead, our meeting will be held in the library on Thursday at the same time. Please bring the debate topic ②that you prepared last week, since we will practice our arguments together. If you cannot attend the new meeting time, please reply to this email by Tuesday evening. We also need two volunteers ③to arrange the chairs and tables before the meeting begins. Mr. Park, our club advisor, will join us this time ④to give feedback on our speaking skills. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to ⑤see everyone on Thursday.

Sorting your trash correctly is one of the simplest habits ①that protect our environment. When you separate paper, plastic, glass, and cans, recycling centers can process each material more efficiently. For example, plastic bottles should be rinsed and ②have their caps removed before being thrown away. Paper ③soaked with food or oil, however, cannot be recycled and must go into general waste. Sorting garbage is similar to organizing a closet, where each type of clothing ④have its own shelf. If items are mixed together carelessly, finding ⑤what you need later becomes difficult.

Jimin joined the school band club in March, but she ①had never performed before an audience. The club's first concert was only two weeks away, and everyone felt nervous. During practice, her hands shook whenever the song reached the chorus, and she kept missing the same chord. Instead of laughing at her mistakes, the other members waited patiently and ②playing the section again with her. The drummer, Suho, suggested that she ③focus on just one part at a time. Slowly, her fingers grew more confident, and the chord ④that once felt impossible began to feel natural. The club practiced until the melody sounded smooth the night before the concert. When Jimin walked onto the stage, she thought of her friends' patience instead of her fear. The audience clapped warmly, and she realized ⑤her club's support had made the difference.

Many schools give students a list of recommended books at the start of each year. Choosing these books is not as simple as picking ①well-known titles. Teachers must think about a wide range of student interests, not just their own favorites. A good list should also include stories from ②different cultures and different kinds of characters, so that every student can find someone to relate to. Reading level matters too; a book that is too difficult can make a student ③give up on reading altogether, while a book that is too easy may feel boring. Teachers often ask students for feedback after they finish a book, and they slowly update the list based on what students actually ④ignored. In the end, the best recommended list is not fixed forever; it keeps changing to match the readers it is meant to ⑤serve.

Our school's volunteer club, Helping Hands, tries to make small acts of kindness feel ①natural. Each month, students visit a nearby nursing home and spend an afternoon talking with elderly residents. For example, they read newspapers aloud or just listen to old stories from the residents. In addition, members ②collect used books and toys from classmates and donate them to a community center downtown. Some students feel ③confident before their first visit, unsure of what to say to strangers. However, most discover that a ④warm smile works better than perfect words. Therefore, the club's real goal is not just finishing hours for a report card. Instead, it teaches members that caring for others grows into a ⑤lasting habit, like watering a plant daily. By the end of the year, many students say the club changed how they see their community.

Last month, our class began practicing for the school choir contest, but rehearsals quickly turned ①tense. Minji, who had the loudest voice, kept correcting other members in the middle of songs. Several students felt ②hurt and began skipping practice, saying it felt more like criticism than teamwork. Our music teacher noticed the empty seats and asked what was happening. Minji explained that she only wanted the group to sound perfect. However, Junho said her tone made people afraid to sing at all. After an ③awkward silence, Minji admitted she had never noticed how her words affected others. So the class tried something new: each member shared one compliment before rehearsal began. Slowly, the tension ④faded and attendance returned to normal. On the day of the contest, the choir sang together with real ⑤doubt and earned second place.

Last Saturday, Jimin visited the recycling center near her apartment with her science class. She had expected the place to be dirty and unpleasant, but _______________. A worker named Mr. Park guided the students through each area, explaining how bottles, cans, and paper were sorted. He showed them a machine that crushed plastic bottles into small pieces before they were sent to factories. Jimin was surprised to learn that mixed trash, thrown into the wrong bin, often ruined an entire batch of recyclables. For example, one greasy pizza box could contaminate a whole pile of clean paper. However, when items were sorted correctly, they could be reused many times, almost like ingredients in a favorite recipe. Walking home, Jimin realized that her small effort at home truly mattered. She decided to sort her family's trash more carefully.

Many readers assume that once they finish a book, there is no reason to open it again. Yet teachers who study reading often disagree, arguing that a second reading can reveal details a first reading misses completely. During a first reading, most of a student's attention goes toward simply following the plot, wondering what will happen next. Once the ending is already known, _______________. Some students who reread their favorite novel report that it feels almost like reading a different book, because they now understand the characters' motives more deeply.

Minjun used to leave half of his lunch tray full of untouched rice and vegetables every day. Last spring, his class started a campaign called "Clean Plate Day" to reduce food waste. At first, Minjun thought the campaign sounded boring and unnecessary for someone like him. However, his teacher explained that leftover food thrown away every day adds up to a huge amount of waste. She compared uneaten food to _______________. This comparison surprised Minjun because he had never thought about food that way before. He decided to take only what he could finish and to try new vegetables slowly. Within a few weeks, his tray was almost always empty, and he felt proud of the change. Other students noticed his effort and began doing the same thing.

A growing number of teenagers are joining book clubs that exist only on their phones. (A) However, a few teachers worry that constant notifications from a reading app can pull attention away from the book itself, since users may spend more time chatting about the story than actually reading it. Despite this concern, many students report that the sense of community keeps them reading books they would have quit halfway through if they had been reading completely alone. (B) These apps let users track how many pages they read each day, write short reviews, and join group chats about a chosen book. Some students say the apps make reading feel less lonely, because they can share their honest reactions the moment they finish a chapter instead of waiting for a weekly meeting. (C) The apps also use gentle reminders and reading streaks to keep members motivated, turning a private habit into a small social game.
