On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. Every table had a banner, and members ① calling out to new first-graders like me. My friend Somin dragged me toward the robotics club, insisting it would suit me. ② However, the long list of coding projects looked too complicated for a beginner. Just then, I noticed a quiet table ③ where students were sketching posters together. A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners. She showed me a sketchbook ④ 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 ⑤ that I belonged in this new school.

Walking through the old industrial district downtown, I noticed that a gray concrete wall had been transformed overnight into a wild swirl of color, letters, and cartoon figures. Some residents complained to the city office, calling it ① vandalism and demanding that workers paint over it immediately. Others argued that the same wall had been an ugly, ② forgotten eyesore for years, and that the graffiti artist had simply given it a voice no one else bothered to give it. This disagreement reveals a ③ tension at the heart of street art: without permission, even a skillful and thoughtful piece can be labeled a crime, yet many cities now invite graffiti artists to paint designated walls legally, hoping to ④ channel that same creative energy into something the whole neighborhood can enjoy. The line between vandalism and art, it seems, often depends less on the paint itself than on who ⑤ forbade permission to use the wall.

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.

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. Some argue that a short trip to a nearby store does not require any special protection, since the risk of a serious accident feels distant and unlikely. However, _______________. 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. Wearing a helmet does not prevent a fall, but it dramatically reduces the chance of a serious head injury when one occurs.

Science labs feel far safer than they actually are, largely because the equipment looks harmless and the experiments are carefully planned by a teacher. This false sense of security leads some students to skip small precautions, such as wearing safety goggles for a "simple" experiment. Chemical reactions, however, do not distinguish between a professional laboratory and a classroom; _______________. Teachers repeatedly emphasize reading each instruction before touching any material, since even a familiar-looking chemical can behave unpredictably when combined with something new.

When a classmate began writing her diary entries in elaborate, flowing calligraphy instead of ordinary handwriting, I assumed she was simply trying to make her notebook look decorative. (A) Every stroke has to be planned before the pen touches the paper, since a brush pen cannot be casually corrected once ink has already spread across the page. (B) Curious, I asked her to teach me one afternoon, and I quickly discovered that calligraphy demands far more patience than I had expected. (C) She told me that slowing her hand down to this deliberate pace actually helped her think more clearly, and what began as decoration for her gradually became a kind of meditation.

Walking down a crowded street while staring at a phone screen has become such a common sight that it barely draws attention anymore, even though the habit turns a pedestrian into one of the least alert people on the sidewalk. (A) Hospitals have reported a steady rise in injuries linked to distracted walking, ranging from minor scrapes after tripping over a curb to serious collisions with moving vehicles at intersections. (B) Researchers who study attention describe this as a kind of tunnel vision: a person absorbed in a text message or a video processes only a narrow slice of the surrounding environment. (C) What makes this danger especially difficult to address is that pedestrians rarely recognize the risk in the moment; unlike distracted driving, which is widely condemned, glancing at a phone while crossing the street still feels like a harmless habit.

Under such chaotic conditions, even a familiar hallway can suddenly feel like unknown territory. Every semester, students groan when the fire alarm rings for another routine drill, filing out of the building as if the exercise were simply a break from class. ( ① ) This casual attitude, however, overlooks why the drill exists in the first place. ( ② ) During an actual fire, thick smoke can fill hallways within minutes, cutting visibility to almost nothing and making it dangerously easy to panic or take a wrong turn. ( ③ ) Repeating the same evacuation route again and again trains the body to move automatically, even when the mind is too frightened to think clearly. ( ④ ) Firefighters note that students who have practiced an escape route calmly walk toward the nearest exit purely out of habit, while those unfamiliar with the building often freeze or hesitate at doorways. ( ⑤ ) A fire drill that feels pointless in the classroom can therefore become the very reason a real evacuation succeeds without injury.

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.

It was, I realized, a lesson about storytelling disguised as a lesson about furniture. My grandmother keeps a wooden cabinet filled with tiny furniture, each piece no larger than a fingernail, that she has been building for over a decade as a miniature hobby. ( ① ) When I first saw the cabinet, I assumed the appeal was simply how impressively small and precise the pieces looked. ( ② ) Talking with her while she worked, though, I learned that the real challenge lies in imagining an entire, believable world at a scale the eye can barely process, deciding where a miniature family might set down a teacup or leave a chair pulled slightly away from the table. ( ③ ) She once spent three weekends carving a single tiny bookshelf, only to leave two of its shelves deliberately empty, ( ④ ) explaining that a completely full room would look staged rather than lived-in. ( ⑤ ) That small decision taught me that miniature craft is not primarily about precision, but about convincingly imagining an ordinary life small enough to fit inside a shoebox.
