Last month, I ①attended a three-day career camp during summer vacation. The camp offered workshops in fields such as broadcasting, cooking, and environmental science. On the first day, I chose the broadcasting workshop, ②where students practiced writing short news scripts. It was harder than I expected, since staying calm while a camera ③recorded my every move felt strange at first. The instructors, who all had real broadcasting experience, gave detailed feedback rather than simple praise, ④that helped us improve quickly. On the final day, each team ⑤presented a short news segment to the entire camp.

For a class project, I ①interviewed a local architect who has worked in the field for over fifteen years. She said she had always loved ②drawing buildings as a child. She explained that architects must balance creativity with practical concerns like safety and cost. When I asked about challenges, she mentioned that clients sometimes ③changes their minds after a design is finished. She also advised students ④to visit construction sites whenever possible, since seeing a real building take shape teaches lessons no classroom can offer. At the end of the interview, she smiled and said that choosing architecture ⑤was the best decision she had ever made.

My cousin, who has never taken a single music lesson, recently used a composing app on her phone to write a short song for her friend's birthday video. Watching her work, I realized the app ① worsened much of the technical difficulty that used to stop beginners from composing at all, automatically keeping her melody in key and suggesting chords that matched the mood she selected. What the app could not do, however, was decide which four notes actually felt right for the opening line, or when a ② pause said more than another note would have. She spent nearly an hour ③ adjusting a single short phrase until it matched the feeling she wanted to capture, deleting and replaying it dozens of times. Watching her patient trial and error, I understood that these tools ④ lower the technical barrier to making music, but they do not remove the very human task of deciding what a piece of music is actually trying to ⑤ say.

Central High School will host its annual career fair next Thursday. More than thirty companies will set up booths to introduce ①similar careers. Students can talk directly with workers from fields such as medicine, engineering, design, and media. Each booth will offer a short activity so visitors can ②experience a small part of the job. Teachers strongly ③encourage all students to attend. Meeting professionals in person often opens doors to careers students never ④considered before. The fair will end at 3 p.m., and light refreshments will be ⑤provided for all visitors.

Our school will hold the New Year Goal Presentation Day on Friday, January 30th, in the main auditorium. Every student is ①invited to share one personal goal for this year in front of classmates and teachers. Each presentation should last no longer than two minutes and may include a poster or simple props to explain the goal ②clearly. Students who wish to participate must submit a ③short outline to their homeroom teacher by January 23rd. Prizes will be given for the most ④creative goal and the most inspiring presentation, chosen by a panel of teachers. Participation is completely ⑤mandatory, so students who prefer not to present are still welcome to attend and watch.

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.

As technology develops rapidly, many new jobs are appearing that did not exist a decade ago. Data analysts, for example, help companies make decisions based on huge amounts of information. Renewable energy technicians install and repair solar panels and wind turbines. Healthcare is expanding beyond hospitals, creating roles for specialists who design digital health tools for elderly patients. These emerging jobs share one common feature: ___________. Experts predict that future workers will need to keep learning new skills throughout their careers.

The Hopeful Start Workshop offers a simple way for students to plan their new year goals. (A) First, the workshop will run from two to four in the afternoon on January 10th at the Green Hill Community Center. (B) During the session, participants will learn how to write specific, measurable goals and break them into small weekly steps. (C) Finally, students who wish to join should register online or call the front desk before January 8th, since seats are limited to thirty people.

Scientists have studied exactly how a habit becomes part of daily life over time. (A) In the early stage, the brain still treats the new activity as unusual, so a person must rely heavily on willpower to continue. (B) By the final stage, the behavior no longer requires effort, since it has become a natural and comfortable part of the daily routine. (C) As the weeks pass, the behavior gradually becomes easier because the brain begins to expect it at a certain time each day.

When Suji transferred to a new school in March, she knew no one in her class and felt lonely during lunch and breaks. Her homeroom teacher suggested joining a club to make friends more easily. (A) One rainy afternoon, a fellow member, Hana, invited her to photograph the flooded schoolyard together. They laughed while trying to keep their cameras dry, and that moment grew into a real friendship. By the end of the semester, Suji had a small group of friends who understood her sense of humor. (B) Suji signed up for the photography club, though she had never taken photography seriously before. At the first meeting, older members taught her how to adjust a camera and find a good angle. (C) Because everyone shared photos and gave friendly feedback each week, Suji gradually felt more comfortable with the other members.
