Good morning, residents of Green Apartment! We would like to introduce a simple way to protect our environment. Used batteries, ①what contain harmful chemicals, should never be ②thrown away with regular trash. If these chemicals leak into the soil, they can pollute water and harm plants. Therefore, our building has installed a special collection box for used batteries near the main entrance. Please place your old batteries inside this box instead of the trash can. The box, ③which is emptied every month, is easy for anyone ④to use. For example, small button batteries from watches and toys can also be dropped in the box. However, batteries ⑤that are still working should not be thrown away at all. We appreciate your effort to keep our neighborhood clean and safe. Thank you for your cooperation and kindness.

Dear residents, we are writing to explain how ①to separate food waste correctly in our building. Many people still throw food waste into the general trash, ②which causes bad smells. Therefore, this notice describes the exact steps you should follow every day. First, please use the special yellow bin near the parking lot for all food scraps. Fruit peels, vegetable ends, and leftover rice belong in this bin, not in a plastic bag. However, hard items such as eggshells and bones must go into the general trash instead. In addition, please drain excess liquid from your food waste before ③throwing it away. This simple habit, ④which only takes a few seconds, keeps the area clean and dry. For example, tea bags should never ⑤being placed in the food waste bin. Thank you for helping our neighborhood stay pleasant.

Last year our art club received a set of digital drawing tablets, and I assumed switching from paper would feel like cheating, since a screen seemed to remove the physical struggle of real drawing. After a few weeks of practice, though, I noticed the tablet demanded a ① different kind of skill rather than an easier one. Because there is no paper texture to guide the pen, beginners often press too ② lightly or draw shaky lines until their hand adjusts to the smooth glass surface. What the tablet does offer is the freedom to undo a mistake instantly and experiment with colors without wasting a single sheet of paper, which encourages artists to take ③ risks they might avoid with a permanent ink pen. Several club members who once avoided painting because they feared ruining their work now try ④ bold new styles daily. The tool changed, but the patience and observation required to create something meaningful stayed exactly the ⑤ same.

Heatstroke happens when the body's temperature rises too ①high and cannot cool itself down. This condition can be completely ②harmless if it is not treated quickly. Drinking plenty of water helps keep your body ③cool. Wearing light, loose clothing also helps ④release heat from your skin. If you notice symptoms such as dizziness, you should move to a shaded place ⑤immediately.

Strong summer sunlight can ①seriously damage your skin if you are not careful. To protect your skin, apply sunscreen with a high SPF before going outside, and ②reapply it every two hours. Try to stay in the shade between eleven in the morning and three in the afternoon, when UV rays are ③weakest. After spending time outdoors, cool your skin with a damp towel and apply a moisturizer to prevent ④dryness. These simple habits will help keep your skin ⑤healthy throughout the summer.

Turning off lights when you leave a room seems like a tiny action, but _______________. Every light left on in an empty room wastes electricity that could have powered something useful elsewhere. For example, a single classroom light left on overnight can waste enough energy to charge dozens of phones. This habit is similar to leaving a faucet running while you brush your teeth, where water flows out for no reason. Both actions seem harmless in the moment, but they add up to a serious waste over time. Some students argue that a single light does not make much difference. However, when an entire school forms this habit together, the total amount of saved energy becomes significant. Therefore, this small daily habit can create a surprisingly large positive effect for the whole planet.

Every plastic product carries a small recycling mark, but few students know what these marks mean. Each symbol _______________. For instance, the number one usually stands for clear plastic bottles, while the number five represents thicker containers like yogurt cups. Reading these marks is similar to reading nutrition labels on snacks, which tell you exactly what is inside. Without checking the label, you might buy something unhealthy by mistake. Likewise, throwing plastic away without checking its mark can send a reusable item straight to a landfill. Some marks even show that a material cannot be recycled at all, so it must be sorted separately. Therefore, taking a few seconds to check the mark before throwing something away makes recycling far more effective for everyone involved.

One Saturday morning, Jiho carried a heavy bag of old clothes to the donation box near his apartment. He had grown taller over the winter, so many shirts no longer fit him. At first, he almost threw the clothes into the regular trash without thinking twice. However, his older sister reminded him that clean clothes could still help someone else. She explained that donating clothes was like giving a plant a second chance to grow. For example, a jacket he had outgrown might keep another child warm this winter. Therefore, Jiho folded each shirt neatly and placed them gently inside the box. In contrast to his first careless idea, he now felt genuinely happy about his choice. Walking home, Jiho realized that _______________.

A student who loves writing and also shows strong language skills, for example, might consider journalism. When choosing a future career, students often face a common question: should I follow what I love, or what I am good at? ( ① ) Passion can provide strong motivation, pushing a person to practice for hours without feeling tired. ( ② ) However, loving an activity does not always mean a person will become skilled at it professionally. ( ③ ) Career experts suggest looking for an overlap between the two instead of choosing only one side. ( ④ ) Finding this balance takes time and self-reflection, but it often leads to a more satisfying and sustainable career than focusing on passion or talent alone. ( ⑤ )

Selling products directly to customers has never been easier. More and more teenagers today dream of starting their own business someday. ( ① ) Some students design and sell handmade jewelry online, while others create simple mobile apps as a hobby. ( ② ) This growing interest is partly due to the internet, which makes it easy to reach customers without a physical store. ( ③ ) Starting a small business also teaches skills that traditional classes rarely offer, such as managing money and marketing a product. ( ④ ) However, young entrepreneurs face real challenges too, and mistakes can feel discouraging at first. ( ⑤ ) Still, most teen entrepreneurs say that failure taught them more than any success did.
