Every January, our school invites a graduate ①to share advice, and last week a former student named Minho visited our class. Three years ago, he was a shy sophomore ②who dreamed of becoming a science teacher but doubted his own grades. Instead of ③studying everything at once, he focused on one weak subject each month and asked his teachers for extra help. He also found a study partner ④shared the same goal, and they checked each other's progress every week. Today, Minho is studying to become a science teacher at university, ⑤proving that steady effort truly pays off.

A loud, jarring alert sound interrupting a phone's normal notifications usually means one thing: a government agency has issued an emergency text to everyone in a specific area, ①warning of anything from a flash flood to a missing child. Some residents complain that the alerts arrive too frequently or for events that feel minor, leading a small number of people to ②silence the notifications altogether. Safety officials warn that this response ③fulfills the entire purpose of the system, since a person who mutes every alert for convenience will also miss the one message that truly demands immediate action. Unlike a weather app that must be checked ④voluntarily, an emergency alert pushes urgent information ⑤directly to a person's pocket.

Have you ever thrown away an old pair of jeans simply because they no longer fit? Instead of discarding them, many people now turn old items into something ①old and useful. This creative process, called upcycling, transforms unwanted objects into products with ②greater value than before. For example, a worn pair of jeans can be cut and sewn into a ③sturdy bag or a small pouch. Old wooden pallets, once used for shipping, are often rebuilt into ④simple furniture such as tables and shelves. However, upcycling differs from ordinary recycling, which usually breaks materials down before making something new. In upcycling, the original material keeps most of its form while gaining a fresh purpose. Therefore, choosing to upcycle rather than throw items away can reduce waste ⑤significantly.

For a class project, I interviewed a local architect who has worked in the field for over fifteen years.

When I asked about challenges, she mentioned that clients sometimes change their minds after a design is finished. Instead of feeling frustrated, she said she tries to ___________. She also advised students to visit construction sites whenever possible, since seeing a real building take shape teaches lessons no classroom can offer.

Water activities are fun, but they require careful preparation to stay safe.

(B) For example, always swim in areas supervised by a lifeguard, and never swim alone, no matter how confident you are. (C) Finally, wearing a life jacket in open water and taking regular breaks will help you avoid accidents and exhaustion.
