When summer vacation began, I decided to make a daily schedule so that I would not waste my free time. At first, my plan was too ①strict, with study sessions packed back to back and almost no breaks. After only three days, I felt exhausted and gave up on the schedule completely. My older sister recommended setting two or three main goals for each day rather than filling every single hour, which sounded much more ②relaxed. I also learned to include short breaks between tasks, since resting actually ③helps me focus better afterward. Since making these changes, I have been able to follow my schedule much more ④consistently, and my vacation has become both productive and ⑤stressful.

On the first day of our improv theater workshop, the instructor gave us a rule that seemed impossible to follow: never say no to whatever another performer suggests. If a scene partner claimed the empty classroom was actually a submarine, our job was to accept that fact instantly and build on it, rather than correcting or rejecting the idea. I found this terrifying at first, since improv offers no script to hide behind and no time to plan a clever line in advance. Over several weeks, though, I noticed that _______________. The instructor explained that improv is not really about being naturally quick-witted, but about trusting a partner's idea enough to build on it rather than protecting your own. That single lesson, oddly, changed how carefully I listened even in ordinary conversations.

Last spring, I joined a one-day job experience program at a local hospital. A kind nurse named Ms. Park showed me around the ward and explained how nurses check patients' conditions. At first, I was nervous about talking to real patients. However, after helping an elderly patient find her room, I felt proud and relaxed. The busiest moment came when several patients needed attention at once, and the nurses worked together calmly. I realized that ___________. By the end of the day, my interest in nursing had grown even stronger.

Jimin joined the school band club in March, but she had never performed before an audience. The club's first concert was only two weeks away, and everyone felt nervous. (A) Instead of laughing at her mistakes, however, the other members waited patiently and played the section again with her. The drummer, Suho, suggested that she focus on just one part at a time, and slowly her fingers grew more confident. (B) As a result, the club practiced until the melody sounded smooth the night before the concert. When Jimin finally walked onto the stage, she thought of her friends' patience instead of her fear, and the audience's warm applause proved that their support had made the difference. (C) During practice, her hands shook whenever the song reached the chorus, and she kept missing the same chord.

Whether or not a goal is motivating often depends on how clear it is. (A) For example, a student who simply decides to study harder often loses direction because the plan is too vague. (B) In contrast, a student who sets a clear goal, such as raising an English score by ten points, knows exactly what to do every day. (C) This is because a clear goal gives the brain an exact target to focus on, which makes progress easy to measure and keeps people motivated.

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.

This is because a person's interests and strengths can change over the years. Many students take a career aptitude test at some point in high school. ( ① ) This test is designed to measure a person's interests, strengths, and personality traits.

( ③ ) For example, a student who enjoys solving problems might discover a hidden interest in engineering. ( ④ ) However, the results should be used only as a guide, not as a final answer. ( ⑤ ) Therefore, students should treat the test as a useful starting point, not a fixed decision.
