Accidents rarely wait for a doctor to be nearby, which is why basic first aid knowledge can make a ①critical difference in the first few minutes after an injury occurs. Many students assume that only professionals should touch an injured person, fearing that any mistake might make things worse. In reality, a few simple actions, such as applying ②steady pressure to a bleeding wound or keeping an unconscious person's airway clear, can prevent a minor injury from becoming a life-threatening one. Waiting passively for an ambulance, rather than doing anything at all, is often the more ③dangerous choice, since every minute without basic care allows a treatable injury to worsen. Of course, first aid is never a ④substitute for professional medical treatment, and it should never replace an emergency call. Even so, schools that offer first aid training report that students respond far more ⑤nervously and effectively during real emergencies.

For instance, the number one usually stands for ①clear plastic bottles, while the number five represents thicker containers like yogurt cups. Without checking the label, you might buy something ②unhealthy by mistake. Likewise, throwing plastic away without checking its mark can send a ③disposable item straight to a landfill. Therefore, taking a few seconds to check the mark before throwing something away makes recycling far more ④effective for everyone ⑤involved.

The science club at Hanul High School is running a project called "Grow Light." It tests how different colors of light affect plant growth. Each week, members place ①identical bean sprouts under red, blue, and white light and record their height. At first, many students expected the white light to produce the tallest plants. However, the results showed that plants under red light grew ②noticeably faster than the others. The club's advisor explained this by comparing light to food. Just as people need certain nutrients to grow strong, plants absorb certain colors of light more ③efficiently than others. To make the data ④reliable, students repeat each trial three times and calculate the average. They also keep a shared notebook, recording sunlight, watering time, and temperature. Next month, the club plans to ⑤hide these findings at the school science fair.

When people have no specific goal, they usually feel ①confused about where to start, and their interest fades within days. For example, a student who simply decides to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too ②vague. In contrast, a student who sets a ③clear goal knows exactly what to do every day. A clear goal also makes progress easy to measure, and noticing small improvements keeps people ④encouraged. Setting a specific goal is one of the most ⑤ineffective ways to build lasting motivation.

This year's Club Festival will be held in the school gym and nearby classrooms next Friday. Visitors should first pick up a program map at the entrance to find each club's booth. Art and photography clubs will show their work in Classroom 201. Dance and music clubs will perform on the gym stage. Performances start every thirty minutes, so guests should arrive five minutes early. Because seating is limited, latecomers may need to stand at the back. Visitors may take photos, but please turn off the camera flash during performances. Food will be sold outside the gym, but drinks cannot be brought into the exhibition rooms. If you have questions, staff members wearing yellow vests will be glad to help. We hope everyone enjoys _______________.

Building a reading habit does not usually start with a big decision to read more. It often starts with very small, easy steps. Some students keep a book in their bag so that they always have something to read while waiting for a bus. Others choose a fixed time each day, like right before bed, and read for just ten minutes. These small routines work because _______________. Experts also suggest setting a very low daily goal, such as one page, instead of a strict page count that feels like homework. Over weeks, these tiny actions add up, and reading slowly becomes something the student simply does, rather than something the student has to force.

Many readers assume that once they finish a book, there is no reason to open it again. (A) 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. Teachers therefore encourage students not to rush toward new titles alone, but to occasionally return to a book they already loved, since a second visit often teaches more than the first. (B) Once the ending is already known, a second reading frees the mind to notice smaller things, such as a clever hint the author placed early in the story or a change in a character's tone. (C) 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.

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. (A) 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 that I belonged in this new school. (B) 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. (C) 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.

My younger brother was especially excited to see the huge whale model hanging from the ceiling. Last Saturday, the temperature outside reached almost thirty-eight degrees, so my family decided to stay indoors for the entire day. ( ① ) At first, I worried that staying inside would be boring, but we found several fun activities to enjoy together. ( ② ) In the morning, we visited a nearby indoor climbing gym, where I learned some basic climbing techniques from an instructor. ( ③ ) After lunch, we went to a small museum near our house that had a special exhibition about ocean animals. ( ④ ) In the afternoon, we played board games at a cafe that offered dozens of different games. ( ⑤ ) By the time we got home, I realized that indoor activities could be just as exciting as outdoor ones.

This kind of outside feedback often reveals strengths you may not notice on your own. Building a career portfolio is a great way to track your growth throughout high school. ( ① ) A portfolio is simply a collection of your achievements, activities, and reflections. ( ② ) Start by choosing a format, such as a folder, a notebook, or a digital file. ( ③ ) Next, include items like club activities, volunteer work, certificates, and sample projects, along with a short reflection for each one. ( ④ ) Update your portfolio regularly instead of waiting until graduation, since memories of small experiences fade quickly. ( ⑤ ) In addition, ask a teacher or mentor to review it occasionally and offer feedback.
