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.

Every October, Greenfield High School holds a festival that ①gives every club a chance to shine. This year's festival will take place on October 15th, ②ran from nine in the morning until four in the afternoon. Clubs ③that want to run a booth must apply to the student council by October 1st, since space in the gym is limited. The science club will present simple experiments ④that are both safe and exciting to watch. The art club, meanwhile, will display paintings that members have created throughout the semester. The cooking club plans ⑤to sell snacks prepared by its own members, and all the profits will be donated to a local shelter. Because many visitors are expected, teachers will supervise each booth carefully to keep students safe. Anyone curious about club life is warmly encouraged to visit and enjoy the festival.

Psychologists have 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 ① trains readers to imagine what other people are feeling, a skill closely related to empathy. When readers follow a character through difficult choices, they practice ② stepping into someone else's perspective without any real risk to themselves. This kind of mental practice, researchers argue, can carry over into everyday situations, making readers more likely ③ to notice a classmate's hidden sadness or understand a stranger's unusual behavior. Stories that stay focused only on fast action, with little attention to characters' inner lives, appear ④ to build empathy far less than stories that slow down to explore emotion. For this reason, some psychologists now recommend that young readers ⑤ balance fast-paced adventure novels with quieter stories about ordinary people and their feelings.

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 ①fill in your club's name, purpose, and requested amount. Second, attach a short plan ②explaining 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. Applications received after the deadline will not be accepted. Once submitted, each request will be reviewed by the budget committee, ③which meets every Friday. Approved clubs will receive their funds within two weeks, and results ④will be posted on the club bulletin board. Please contact Mr. Han in the activities office if you ⑤has any questions.

Audiobooks have grown rapidly in popularity over the past several years, and many commuters now listen to novels instead of reading printed pages. Publishers report that audiobook sales continue to rise every year, while the growth of printed book sales has ① slowed. Part of the appeal is ② convenience, since listeners can enjoy a story while driving, exercising, or doing housework. Some traditional readers argue that listening to a book is not the same as truly reading it, because the listener does not process written words directly. Researchers who study this question have found that comprehension scores for listeners and readers are usually very ③ similar, as long as the material is not too complex. The biggest difference tends to appear with ④ dense, technical material, which is often easier to follow in print because readers can pause and reread difficult sentences at will. For most everyday reading, however, the debate over audiobooks may matter less than simply finding a format that keeps people ⑤ disengaged with stories.

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. 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. 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. 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 _______________.

During the sports day relay race, Jun was nervous, and his hands were shaking as he waited for the baton. When his turn came, he grabbed the baton but nearly dropped it while turning the first corner. (A) As he handed the baton smoothly to the next runner, he realized that the team's effort mattered more than his mistake. (B) His teammates, watching from the field, shouted his name and encouraged him to keep running. Even though Jun felt embarrassed, their cheering gave him confidence to focus on the runner ahead of him. (C) After the race, his teammates gathered around him and said that his recovery had kept the team in the competition. Jun understood then that teamwork means supporting each other even after something goes wrong. His class did not win first place, but they celebrated together as if they had.

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

Those decisions, small as they sound, were entirely her own to make. 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. ( ① ) Watching her work, I realized the app handled 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. ( ② ) What the app could not do, however, was decide which four notes actually felt right for the opening line, or when a pause said more than another note would have. ( ③ ) She spent nearly an hour adjusting a single short phrase until it matched the feeling she wanted to capture, deleting and replaying it dozens of times. ( ④ ) Watching her patient trial and error, I understood that these tools 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 say. ( ⑤ )

주어진 문장: This confusion sometimes leads them to join an activity that does not match what they are really looking for. Many students confuse the student council with school clubs. ( ① ) In fact, the two groups serve very different purposes. ( ② ) The student council is an official body that represents the whole school. It manages shared issues such as rules, events, and communication with teachers. ( ③ ) For example, council members often organize the school festival. They also collect opinions from each class before making decisions. ( ④ ) A club, in contrast, is a small group formed around one shared interest, such as music or art. While the council must consider the needs of every student, a club can focus narrowly on what its own members enjoy. ( ⑤ ) Therefore, joining the council usually requires an election, whereas joining a club simply requires genuine interest. Some students eventually do both, using the council to build leadership skills and a club to develop a personal passion.
