On January 1st, I decided to become a healthier person and wrote down three goals: exercising three times a week, reading one book every month, and sleeping before midnight. During the first week, I felt ①excited and followed my plan without any trouble. However, by the second week, I began skipping my morning jogs because I felt too ②tired after school. My friend Mina noticed that I looked discouraged, so she offered to exercise with me after class. Having a partner made the habit much ③harder to keep, and I also moved my book onto my desk instead of my phone, which helped me read every night. By the end of January, I had ④finished two books and jogged more than ten times, and I felt genuinely ⑤proud of the progress I had made.

Last January, Minji decided that she would run three kilometers every morning before school, but after a few cold mornings, she began oversleeping and soon stopped running altogether. By February, she felt disappointed and believed she simply lacked willpower. One evening, her older brother asked her why the plan had failed, and together they looked closely at her daily schedule. They realized that running before sunrise in freezing weather had been too difficult to maintain. So Minji changed her plan and decided to run after school instead, when the weather was warmer and she had more energy. This experience taught her that ___________.

On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. Every table had a banner, and members called out to new first-graders like me. My friend Somin dragged me toward the robotics club, insisting it would suit me. However, the long list of coding projects looked too complicated for a beginner. Just then, I noticed a quiet table where students were sketching posters together. A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners. She showed me a sketchbook filled with simple drawings by first-year members. Her gentle voice made me feel relaxed for the first time that day. Without much thought, I wrote my name on the sign-up sheet before leaving. Walking out of the gym, I finally felt _______________.

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 ___________.

A planner is only useful if you actually use it well throughout the year, not just on January first. (A) For example, checking off completed tasks each morning helps you build momentum and stay motivated throughout the week. (B) Reviewing your notes every Sunday allows you to notice patterns and adjust your goals for the following week. (C) The most important step is to write one clear, specific goal at the top of each month.

Whenever people discuss the future of reading, one debate never seems to end: e-books or paper books? (A) Fans of paper books, however, argue that something important is lost on a screen, since many readers say they remember a book's plot more clearly by recalling where a scene appeared on the page. (B) Supporters of e-books point out that a single device can hold thousands of titles, and readers can also change the font size or look up a word instantly. (C) Screens also invite distraction, since a single notification can pull a reader away from the story, and interestingly, most young readers do not choose one format forever.

People often react to failure in very different ways, and this difference can shape their future success. (A) For example, a student who fails a math test might feel upset briefly, but then ask the teacher which questions revealed weak points. (B) Some people believe that failing simply proves they lack ability, so they quickly give up on their goal. (C) Others, however, treat the failure as useful information and use it to build a clearer plan for improvement.

주어진 문장: It felt like the longest silence of my entire life. Every morning, our broadcasting club airs a short news program for the entire school. Last Tuesday, I was chosen to read the weather report for the very first time. ① My hands were shaking as the red light on the camera turned on. Halfway through my sentence, I suddenly forgot the next line completely. ② For a few seconds, only silence filled the studio, and I could hear my own heartbeat. ③ My partner Minho, who was sitting beside me, quickly slid the script closer to me. I took a deep breath and calmly continued reading from where I had stopped. ④ Somehow, my voice sounded steadier than I expected, and I finished the report smoothly. After the broadcast ended, several classmates told me they had not even noticed the pause. ⑤ That morning taught me that small mistakes rarely matter as much as we fear.
