The Hillside Community Center is looking for student volunteers ①to help with its summer programs. Volunteers will assist with activities such as tutoring younger children and ②organized books in the community library. This opportunity is open to all middle and high school students ③who can commit at least four hours per week. No prior experience is necessary, since training ④will be provided on the first day. Students who are interested should ⑤complete an online application form before July 10th.

Whenever people discuss the future of reading, one debate never ① seem to end: e-books or paper books? Supporters of e-books point out that a single device can hold thousands of titles, which ② makes traveling with a full library incredibly light. Readers can also change the font size, look up a word instantly, and carry their entire collection in one bag. Fans of paper books, however, argue that something important ③ is lost on a screen. Many readers say they remember a paper book's plot more clearly, perhaps because they recall where a scene ④ appeared on the page. Screens also invite distraction, since a single notification can pull a reader away from the story in seconds. Interestingly, several recent surveys suggest that most young readers do not choose one format forever. Instead, they switch between paper and digital depending on the situation, ⑤ treating the debate less as a contest and more as a matter of convenience.

Psychologists have ① long wondered whether reading fiction can change how people treat others in real life. Several studies suggest that novels which describe a character's inner thoughts in detail can train readers to imagine what other people are feeling, a skill closely related to ② indifference. When readers follow a character through difficult choices, they practice stepping into someone else's perspective without any real ③ risk to themselves. This kind of mental practice, researchers argue, can carry over into everyday situations, making readers more likely to notice a classmate's hidden ④ sadness or understand a stranger's unusual behavior. For this reason, some psychologists now recommend that young readers balance fast-paced adventure novels with quieter stories about ordinary people and their ⑤ feelings.

Picture books are usually written for young children, but a growing number of adults are picking them up for themselves. At first glance, a picture book seems too ① simple for someone who has already learned to read long novels. However, many picture books deal with ② serious themes, such as loss, fear, and change, using only a few carefully chosen words. Because the text is short, every sentence carries extra weight, and readers naturally ③ slow down to notice small details in the pictures. This slower pace can feel ④ stressful for adults who are used to rushing through long articles and constant notifications. A picture book can also be finished in a single sitting, which makes it easy to return to the same story again and again. For these reasons, therapists and teachers sometimes recommend picture books not only to children but also to ⑤ stressed adults who need a quiet moment.

Drinking enough water is especially important during the hot summer months. When you sweat a lot, your body loses not only water but also important minerals called electrolytes. If you do not replace these losses, ___________. Experts recommend drinking water regularly throughout the day, rather than waiting until you feel thirsty.

Many students imagine a librarian simply sitting 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 involves 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 is trustworthy, a skill she considers just as important as reading itself. According to Ms. Han, the most rewarding moment is not organizing shelves but _______________. She admits that budgets are often tight and that new technology keeps changing how libraries operate.

Attention all club leaders: applications for the club budget are now open. If your club wants support for materials, events, or competitions, please follow the steps below. First, download the budget request form from the school website and fill in your club's name, purpose, and requested amount. Second, attach a short plan explaining how the money will be used, since forms without a clear plan will not be reviewed. Third, submit the completed form to the teacher in charge of student activities by August 14th. _______________________. Once submitted, each request will be reviewed by the budget committee, which meets every Friday. Approved clubs will receive their funds within two weeks, and results will be posted on the club bulletin board. Please contact Mr. Han in the activities office if you have any questions.

When an image-generating program produced a strikingly detailed painting in the exact style of a well-known illustrator within seconds, my art club spent an entire meeting arguing about what it actually meant for artists. (A) Others worried that the program had been trained on thousands of real illustrations scraped from the internet without the original artists' permission, meaning the tool's impressive results were quietly built on other people's uncredited labor. (B) Some members felt excited, imagining the software as a helpful tool that could speed up brainstorming or generate quick backgrounds for their comics. (C) A few pointed out that the final image, however skillful it looked, reflected no personal memory, struggle, or intention, only patterns learned from existing pictures, and the debate never reached a clear conclusion.

For most of the twentieth century, a library was simply a quiet room full of books, and visitors were expected to stay silent while they searched the shelves. (A) Librarians say this change did not happen by accident, since fewer people needed a library simply to find facts as more information moved online. (B) The answer, in many neighborhoods, turned out to be space itself: a warm, free place where students could study together and children could attend a story hour. (C) Today, many public libraries look completely different, offering group study rooms, comfortable sofas, computer labs, and even small recording studios for podcasts alongside the usual shelves.

The Greenfield Public Library has prepared several special programs for students this summer. (A) In addition, a special lecture series will invite professionals from various fields to speak with students. (B) From July 20th to August 14th, students can join reading clubs and writing workshops held every weekday. (C) Since all programs are free but space is limited, interested students should register in advance.
