Every July, our school library ① launches a summer reading challenge that invites students to read at least five books before classes begin again in September. Students who ② complete the challenge receive a small prize, but many say the real reward is something else entirely. Without daily homework and tests to worry about, summer gives students rare freedom ③ to choose books purely because they sound interesting, not because a teacher assigned them. Librarians notice that students often pick more unusual genres during the challenge, ④ including graphic novels, poetry, and nonfiction about hobbies they enjoy. This freedom seems to matter more than the prize itself, since students who only cared about winning tend to quit once the reading feels difficult, while curious readers ⑤ keeps going.

More and more teenagers today dream of starting their own business someday. Some students design and sell handmade jewelry online, while others create simple mobile apps as a hobby. Starting a small business also teaches skills that traditional classes rarely offer, such as managing money, marketing a product, and handling customer complaints. However, young entrepreneurs face real challenges too, and mistakes can feel discouraging at first. Still, most teen entrepreneurs say that ___________. For this reason, schools are beginning to offer entrepreneurship clubs, giving students a safe space to test their business ideas.

Good afternoon, everyone! Our town invites students to join a special tree-planting volunteer day next month. This event aims to restore a small forest damaged by last year's fire near the river. Volunteers will meet at the community center at nine in the morning and travel together by bus. Please wear old clothes and shoes that you do not mind getting dirty during the activity. _______________. For example, rangers will show volunteers how to dig proper holes without harming the tree roots. In contrast, planting too shallowly often causes young trees to die within a few months. Therefore, careful instructions must be followed closely by every volunteer. Water and snacks, prepared by the town office, will be provided for free. Students interested in joining should register online before next Wednesday.

Sorting your trash correctly is one of the simplest habits that protect our environment. (A) For example, plastic bottles should be rinsed and have their caps removed before being thrown away. Paper soaked with food or oil, however, cannot be recycled and must go into general waste. (B) Likewise, mixing recyclables with ordinary trash makes the whole recycling process complicated. Many students believe that sorting trash takes too much time, but it actually requires only a few extra seconds. Therefore, learning these basic rules now helps you build a habit that benefits your entire community. (C) When you separate paper, plastic, glass, and cans, recycling centers can process each material more efficiently. Sorting garbage is similar to organizing a closet, where each type of clothing has its own shelf. If items are mixed together carelessly, finding what you need later becomes difficult.

Minji's New Year running plan did not go as smoothly as she had hoped. (A) They discovered that running before sunrise in freezing weather had simply been too hard to keep up. (B) After only a few cold mornings, she began oversleeping and eventually gave up on running altogether. (C) So she decided to run after school instead, and this small change helped her stick to her plan and grow stronger.

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.

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. (A) 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 that I belonged in this new school. (B) 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. (C) 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.

주어진 문장: These habits include the way we use light, water, and electronic devices every day. Every day, we leave behind marks of the gases that warm our planet, much like footprints left in wet sand. ① These marks, often called our carbon footprint, come from small choices such as driving, eating, and using electricity. ② Many students think that only large factories create these marks, but ordinary habits at home also matter greatly. ③ For example, turning off lights when leaving a room reduces the energy that power plants must produce. ④ Walking or biking to school instead of riding in a car also lowers the amount of gas released into the air. In contrast, leaving devices plugged in all night quietly increases our footprint without our notice. ⑤ Therefore, students who practice these simple habits regularly can shrink their footprint significantly. Small daily choices, repeated over time, become powerful tools for protecting the environment we all share.

주어진 문장: There is also a third, equally important reason that explains why so many resolutions fail so quickly. Many people give up on their new year's resolutions within just a few days, and psychologists have found several simple reasons for this pattern. ( ① ) First, willpower is like a muscle that becomes tired after being used too much, so people often run out of self-control by the end of a busy day. ( ② ) Second, many resolutions are unrealistic from the beginning, since people set goals that are far too difficult to reach in a short time. ( ③ ) When a goal feels impossible, people quickly lose motivation and stop trying. ( ④ ) Third, most resolutions do not offer any immediate reward. ( ⑤ ) Because the brain prefers quick rewards over distant ones, people find it hard to stay motivated without seeing fast results.

주어진 문장: In contrast, a cloth bag can be used again and again for many years. Attention, students and teachers! Our school is starting a new campaign called 'Bring Your Own Bag.' ① Starting next Monday, the school store will no longer offer free plastic bags to customers. ② Instead, we encourage everyone to bring a reusable shopping bag from home. ③ Plastic bags, which are made from petroleum, take hundreds of years to break down in the environment. ④ Therefore, using a reusable bag is a simple habit that protects sea animals and reduces pollution. ⑤ For example, students who bring their own bags will receive a small sticker as a reward. However, students who forget their bags may still purchase a paper bag for a small fee. We hope every student will join this easy and meaningful campaign. Thank you for helping our school become greener.
