On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. Every table had a banner, and members ① calling out to new first-graders like me. My friend Somin dragged me toward the robotics club, insisting it would suit me. ② However, the long list of coding projects looked too complicated for a beginner. Just then, I noticed a quiet table ③ where students were sketching posters together. A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners. She showed me a sketchbook ④ 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 ⑤ that I belonged in this new school.

Jihun made a resolution ①to study English for two hours every day. For the first three days, he studied exactly as planned and ②felt proud of himself. However, on the fourth day, he skipped his study time because he was too exhausted, and within a week, his resolution had disappeared. ③Feeling disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister about it, and she suggested that he ④try a smaller, more realistic goal instead of a large one. Following her advice, he changed his plan to studying English for only twenty minutes each night, and this small goal felt less overwhelming, so he managed ⑤keeping it every day for a month.

Setting a goal is only the first step; ①keeping track of progress is just as important. Many people write down goals at the beginning of the year but never check how far they ②have come. Keeping a simple log, such as a weekly checklist or a short journal entry, lets a person ③seeing clear evidence of improvement over time. For instance, someone ④learning guitar might record which songs they practiced each week. Tracking progress also helps identify problems early, since a person can notice when effort stops producing results and ⑤adjust the plan before too much time is wasted.

This workbook is designed ①to help you set meaningful goals for the new year. First, turn to page one and write down one goal ②that you truly want to achieve this year. Next, complete the reason section by ③explain why this goal matters to you. On page two, break your goal into four smaller monthly steps, ④using the space provided for each month. If you fall behind schedule, do not simply give up; instead, revise your steps in pencil and ⑤keep moving forward.

Summer is the best time to enjoy swimming pools, rivers, and beaches with family and friends. However, water activities can be dangerous without proper preparation. That is why experts stress one point above all: ___________. First, always swim in areas supervised by a lifeguard, and never swim alone even if you are a strong swimmer. Second, check the weather and water conditions before entering the water, since strong currents and sudden storms make swimming risky. Third, wear a life jacket in open water such as a river or the sea, especially if you are a child or a beginner.

On the first day of winter break, my friend Yuna and I sat in a cafe and talked about the new year ahead. Instead of making separate plans, we decided that ___________. Yuna wanted to improve her English speaking, while I wanted to wake up earlier every morning, and we agreed to text each other every night to report what we had done that day.

Every July, our school library launches a summer reading challenge that invites students to read at least five books before classes begin again in September. (A) Without daily homework and tests to worry about, summer gives students rare freedom to choose books purely because they sound interesting, not because a teacher assigned them. Librarians notice that students often pick more unusual genres during the challenge, including graphic novels, poetry, and nonfiction about hobbies they enjoy. (B) Students who complete the challenge receive a small prize, but many say the real reward is something else entirely. (C) This freedom seems to matter more than the prize itself, since students who only cared about winning tend to quit once the reading feels difficult, while curious readers keep going. Teachers who track student progress after summer report that challenge participants often return in September with noticeably stronger reading habits than classmates who read nothing over the break.

For my birthday, my older sister took me to a small pottery studio where visitors can shape their own bowl or cup on a spinning wheel. (A) My first attempt collapsed into a shapeless lump within seconds, because I had not realized how much steady, centered pressure the clay actually requires before it can be shaped at all. (B) After nearly a dozen failed attempts, I finally produced a lopsided but recognizable cup, and the small imperfection along its rim somehow made me prouder of it than a perfectly smooth, machine-made mug ever could have. (C) I expected the wheel to do most of the difficult work automatically, since it was already spinning quickly by the time I sat down.

This wasted electricity, though invisible, still comes from real power plants that burn fuel. Turning off lights when you leave a room seems like a tiny action, but it saves more energy than most people expect. ① Every light left on in an empty room wastes electricity that could have powered something useful elsewhere. ② 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. ③ 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. ④ However, when an entire school forms this habit together, the total amount of saved energy becomes significant. ⑤ Therefore, this small daily habit can create a surprisingly large positive effect for the whole planet.

주어진 문장: In contrast, throwing away useful items increases the amount of trash that ends up in landfills. Many people throw away items that they no longer need. ① However, some students have started to buy and sell used goods instead of throwing them away. ② This practice, often called secondhand trading, takes place at flea markets or through simple online apps. When you buy a secondhand book or a used bicycle, you save money and reduce waste at the same time. For example, a jacket that no longer fits your older sibling can become a treasure for someone else. Giving an old item to a new owner is like giving a toy a second life. ③ Therefore, secondhand trading, which requires little effort, protects both your wallet and the environment. ④ Small choices like this can make a big difference for our planet. ⑤
