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.

Child safety experts now argue that this advice is too ① complex to be useful, since most children will inevitably need to interact with unfamiliar adults, whether asking a store employee for help or greeting a new neighbor. A more effective approach focuses on ② specific situations rather than people in general, teaching children to recognize behavior that feels wrong. Role-playing these scenarios in advance helps children ③ respond quickly under pressure, rather than freezing because the situation feels unfamiliar and confusing. Experts also emphasize that children should be taught they will never get in trouble for refusing an adult's request or for ④ loudly saying no in public, since hesitation caused by politeness can cost ⑤ precious seconds in a genuine emergency.

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. I expected the wheel to do most of the difficult work ① automatically, since it was already spinning quickly by the time I sat down. 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. The instructor explained that beginners almost always press too ② hard on one side, which throws the entire piece off balance no matter how fast or slow the wheel spins. After nearly a dozen failed attempts, I finally produced a lopsided but recognizable cup, and the small imperfection along its rim somehow made me ③ ashamed of it, unlike a perfectly smooth, machine-made mug. Clay, I learned that afternoon, rewards ④ patience far more generously than it rewards ⑤ force.

On January 1st, I decided to become a healthier person and wrote down three goals: exercising three times a week, reading one book every month, and sleeping before midnight. During the first week, I followed my plan without any trouble, but by the second week, I began skipping my morning jogs because I felt too tired after school. That was when I learned that _______________. My friend Mina noticed that I looked discouraged, so she offered to exercise with me after class, and having a partner made the habit much easier to keep. I also moved my book onto my desk instead of my phone, which helped me read a few pages every night. By the end of January, I had finished two books and jogged more than ten times.

Riding a bicycle is one of the most popular ways for teenagers to get around, yet many students still skip the one piece of equipment that could save their life: the helmet. (A) Wearing a helmet does not prevent a fall, but it dramatically reduces the chance of a serious head injury when one occurs. (B) A sudden pothole, a car door opening without warning, or a patch of gravel can throw even an experienced cyclist off balance in an instant. (C) Some argue that a short trip to a nearby store does not require any special protection, since the risk feels distant and unlikely, but most accidents actually happen close to home, on familiar streets where riders feel too comfortable to expect danger.

주어진 문장: These various booths give every member a chance to show what they have practiced throughout the year. Every October, Greenfield High School holds a festival that gives every club a chance to shine. ① This year's festival will take place on October 15th, running from nine in the morning until four in the afternoon. ② Clubs that want to run a booth must apply to the student council by October 1st, since space in the gym is limited. ③ The science club will present simple experiments that are both safe and exciting to watch. The art club, meanwhile, will display paintings that members have created throughout the semester. ④ The cooking club plans to sell snacks prepared by its own members, and all the profits will be donated to a local shelter. ⑤ 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.

주어진 문장: This process, however, does not happen all at once, but unfolds gradually in stages. Many students set a New Year goal to build a new habit, such as reading every night or exercising each morning. ( ① ) However, most people give up within two weeks because the habit still feels difficult. ( ② ) Researchers who studied this process found that, on average, a new habit takes about sixty-six days to feel automatic. ( ③ ) During the first few weeks, your brain still treats the activity as something new, so you must rely on willpower. ( ④ ) Around the middle of this period, the behavior becomes easier because your brain starts to expect it at a certain time each day. ( ⑤ ) By the end, you no longer need to force yourself, since the action feels natural and comfortable.

Getting the structure right at this early stage, she said, matters more than any single beautifully drawn panel. When I finally got the chance to interview a professional webtoon artist for our school newspaper, I expected her to describe drawing as the hardest part of her job. ( ① ) Instead, she told me that writing the story comes first, often taking longer than the artwork itself. ( ② ) She sketches rough thumbnails for an entire chapter before touching a single detailed panel, testing whether the pacing keeps readers scrolling instead of losing interest halfway through. ( ③ ) She also reads every comment section carefully, not to copy what fans suggest, but to understand which moments made readers feel something real. ( ④ ) What surprised me most was learning that a single weekly episode, which takes only a few minutes to read, usually takes her nearly forty hours to complete from script to finished color. ( ⑤ ) Her honesty made me realize that the smooth, effortless feeling of a good webtoon is actually the product of countless invisible decisions.

None of this, she reminded us, has anything to do with the words a character actually says. Before a single line of dialogue is written for many animated shows, a character designer has already spent weeks deciding how that character should look, move, and be recognized at a glance. ( ① ) A visiting illustrator who spoke at our school explained that a truly successful design should be identifiable even as a plain black silhouette, since audiences often notice a character's outline before they notice any facial detail. ( ② ) She showed us early sketches of a now-famous cartoon hero, in which the same personality had been tested through dozens of different body shapes, from short and round to tall and angular, before the final version was chosen. ( ③ ) Small choices, she added, carry surprising weight: rounded shapes tend to feel friendly and safe, while sharp angles suggest danger or power, even to viewers who have never studied design. ( ④ ) I left the talk realizing that a character's personality is communicated through its silhouette long before it ever speaks a single word. ( ⑤ )

주어진 문장: Please make sure to write your goal clearly, since it will be shown to other students. Attention, all students! Our school is starting a New Year Goal-Setting Campaign to help everyone begin the year with clear direction. ( ① ) During the first week of January, every student will receive a small goal card in homeroom class. ( ② ) On this card, write one personal goal for the new year, along with two simple steps you plan to take to achieve it. ( ③ ) After completing your card, submit it to your homeroom teacher by January 9th. ( ④ ) All goal cards will then be displayed on the bulletin board outside the library, so students can read and encourage one another. ( ⑤ ) In February, students who show clear progress toward their goals will receive a small prize during the morning assembly.
