Opening most camera apps today reveals a row of filters that can smooth skin, brighten eyes, and reshape a jawline before a photo is even taken, all powered by AI models ①trained to recognize facial features in real time. What began as a playful novelty has become a default setting for many users, subtly ②adjusting nearly every selfie posted online. Psychologists have grown concerned about a specific consequence of this shift: people increasingly compare their unfiltered reflection in a mirror to a filtered version of themselves ③seeing constantly on a screen, a comparison that earlier generations never had to face. Some social media platforms have responded by ④labeling heavily edited photos or banning certain filters that alter body shape. Whether such small warnings can meaningfully counter the daily flood of filtered images, however, ⑤remains an open question that researchers are only beginning to study.

Last spring, a small cosmetics brand opened a pop-up store in a busy shopping district for just two weeks. Rather than displaying products in the usual manner, the team ①designed the space to resemble a colorful garden, inviting visitors to explore and take photographs. Word spread quickly through social media as customers ②shared images of the unusual setting with their friends and followers. Curious about this success, a marketing researcher later interviewed several visitors, ③who explained that the temporary nature of the event made the experience feel special. Many admitted they had never previously purchased from the brand but ④decided to buy something simply to remember the visit. When the two weeks ended, the brand reported a significant increase in both sales and social media ⑤follower.

Parents and coaches sometimes worry that heavy resistance training might damage the growth plates in a young athlete's bones, cartilage regions near the ends of long bones ①that are responsible for lengthening as a child develops. This concern kept strength training out of many youth programs for decades. However, extensive research over the past twenty years has found little evidence ②that properly supervised resistance training harms growth plates in healthy children. The actual risk arises not from lifting weights itself but from poor technique, excessive load, and inadequate supervision, factors ③that can injure any part of a young athlete's body regardless of the activity involved. Major pediatric and sports medicine organizations now generally agree that structured strength programs, when ④teaching with correct form and appropriate weight, can safely ⑤improve bone density, coordination, and injury resistance in young athletes.

Three-dimensional printing technology is changing how products are designed and manufactured across many industries. Unlike traditional manufacturing, which often requires expensive molds and long production times, 3D printers can create ①simple objects directly from digital files within hours. This flexibility allows companies to produce small batches of customized products without the massive costs typically associated with mass production. Hospitals now use 3D printing to create prosthetic limbs tailored ②precisely to individual patients, while automakers use it to build lightweight parts that ③reduce vehicle weight. Small businesses, too, have benefited enormously, since the technology ④lowers the barrier to entry for entrepreneurs. However, experts caution that 3D printing still struggles to ⑤match the speed of mass production for extremely large orders.

Team sports place athletes in a uniquely social form of competition, one where individual skill alone ①rarely determines the outcome of a match. Sports psychologists have long studied why some groups of talented individual players fail to perform as a cohesive unit while other, less individually skilled teams consistently ②exceed expectations. Trust among teammates appears to be a ③decisive factor, since players who believe their teammates will reliably fulfill their roles are more willing to take the calculated risks that winning often requires. Clear and consistent communication during high-pressure moments further reduces the hesitation and confusion that can ④unravel a team's coordination in front of a crowd. Interestingly, researchers have found that teams which deliberately build informal social bonds off the field tend to display better on-field cohesion, suggesting that chemistry can ⑤easily be manufactured through drills alone.

On a summer evening, downtown streets often feel ①noticeably hotter than nearby parks or suburban neighborhoods, even after the sun has set. This phenomenon, known as the urban heat island effect, occurs when cities ②retain more heat than surrounding rural areas because of their dense concentration of asphalt, concrete, and buildings. Unlike soil or vegetation, which absorb and release heat ③instantly, these man-made surfaces absorb sunlight during the day and slowly radiate it back at night, preventing temperatures from cooling. Tall buildings packed closely together also block wind, trapping warm air within narrow streets. In contrast, areas with ④abundant trees and open water naturally stay cooler, since plants release moisture that helps lower surrounding temperatures. To reduce this effect, many cities have begun installing rooftop gardens and ⑤expanding public parks, hoping that additional greenery will absorb less heat than pavement does.

The planning fallacy describes the tendency to underestimate how long a task will take, even when experience suggests otherwise. Psychologists who studied this bias found that ___________. They focus less on how similar projects actually unfolded before. A student who insists an essay takes two hours, despite needing five hours for every previous essay, shows a clear instance of the fallacy. Large construction projects offer another example. Officials frequently predict completion dates that later prove far too optimistic once delays appear. One reason this bias persists is that people rarely review their history of missed deadlines, relying instead on hopeful imagination. Some researchers recommend a technique called reference class forecasting, comparing a new task to similar completed tasks. By anchoring predictions to real outcomes, planners can produce estimates that are considerably more accurate.

Modern sports wearables continuously collect data that would once have required a laboratory to measure, allowing coaches to detect early warning signs of overtraining, sometimes noticing a decline in performance before the athlete consciously feels tired. However, the flood of data has created a new challenge: _______________. Some researchers worry that casual users may misinterpret a single unusual reading as a serious problem, leading to needless anxiety rather than useful insight.

주어진 문장: This misconception, sometimes called the twenty-one-day myth, has been repeated so often that many people accept it without question. Many people believe that a new habit becomes automatic after only twenty-one days, but researchers who examined real behavior found a different number. ( ① ) This project, called the 66-day habit formation study, tracked volunteers who tried to adopt a new daily habit, like drinking water with lunch. ( ② ) Researchers measured how automatic each action felt over time and found that habits needed an average of sixty-six days to become effortless. ( ③ ) Yet the actual time varied widely, ranging from about eighteen days for simple habits to over two hundred days for difficult ones. ( ④ ) This wide range explains why the popular twenty-one-day claim, though easy to remember, rarely matches real experience. ( ⑤ ) For instance, flossing might feel automatic within a few weeks, while jogging every morning may take months to feel natural. The study's central lesson is that patience matters more than speed when building lasting habits.

주어진 문장: Every rainy season, the water rose a little higher, leaving the villagers increasingly anxious about their future. Mira had lived in a coastal village since birth, watching the tide creep closer to her family's doorstep every year. ( ① ) When the sea finally swallowed the rice paddies that had fed her village for generations, her parents decided that staying was no longer possible. ( ② ) Together with many neighbors, they packed what little they could carry and moved inland, becoming what experts now call climate migrants, people forced to abandon their homes because of rising seas, droughts, or other disasters. ( ③ ) This term, rarely used a decade ago, has become increasingly common as extreme weather displaces communities worldwide. ( ④ ) Mira missed her old house terribly, yet she slowly began to build a new life in the crowded city, learning to adapt just as her ancestors once had. ( ⑤ ) International organizations, however, still struggle to agree on how to protect people like her, since climate migrants are not officially recognized as refugees under current law.
