Many students give up on their New Year goals because the goals feel too big ①to handle. A more effective approach is ②break a large goal into smaller, manageable steps. Instead of focusing on the entire year, try setting a goal for just one week, ③such as learning twenty new words. Once you complete that small step, ④move on to the next one, and gradually build toward the bigger goal. This method works because small tasks feel achievable, and completing them ⑤gives a sense of success.

Last New Year's Day, I wrote three goals in my diary: reading more books, exercising regularly, and saving money for a bicycle. Today, exactly one year later, I opened that old page and smiled at how much ①has changed. I did not finish all twelve books I had planned, but I read six, ②which was still more than the year before. Saving money was harder than I expected, since unexpected expenses ③kept appearing. My exercise habit became the biggest surprise, and I now run almost every morning without ④feeling forced. Looking back, I realized that progress does not always match the original plan, and what matters more is that I kept trying, adjusted my methods, and ⑤to learn something new about myself along the way.

Many students wonder why club activities matter so much for their school life record, a document that summarizes what a student did during each semester. Whenever students take part in a club, their teacher writes a short note describing what role they played and how they grew. For example, a student who organized a club exhibition might be described as someone who showed strong leadership and creativity. These notes are not simply a list of activities; they _______________. Therefore, admissions officers at universities read the record carefully to understand a student's genuine interests, not just their grades. In contrast, a club membership with no real participation rarely leaves a meaningful impression. This is why teachers encourage students to take an active role rather than joining a club only for its name.

This workbook is designed to help you set meaningful goals for the new year, so please read the instructions carefully before you begin. First, turn to page one and write down one goal you truly want to achieve this year, and then ___________. On page two, break your goal into four smaller monthly steps, using the space provided for each month. Then, use the weekly checklist on page three to track your progress every Sunday.

During the sports day relay race, Jun was nervous, and his hands were shaking as he waited for the baton. When his turn came, he grabbed the baton but nearly dropped it while turning the first corner. His teammates, watching from the field, shouted his name and encouraged him to keep running. Even though Jun felt embarrassed, their cheering gave him confidence to focus on the runner ahead of him. As he handed the baton smoothly to the next runner, he realized that the team's effort mattered more than his mistake. After the race, his teammates gathered around him and said that his recovery had kept the team in the competition. Jun understood then that _______________. His class did not win first place, but they celebrated together as if they had.

When people fail to reach a goal, they often feel embarrassed and want to give up. However, ___________. Some people believe failing means they simply lack ability, so they stop trying. Others see failure differently: they treat it as useful information that shows what needs to change. For example, a student who fails a math test might ask the teacher which questions were weak points and study those areas more carefully.

Choosing the right club can shape how a student feels about school life. Many first-graders join a club simply because their friends are joining it. (A) It also helps to think about how much time each club actually requires. Some clubs meet only once a week, while others practice almost every day. (B) However, experts suggest that personal interest should always come before friendship. A club that matches your interest keeps you motivated during a busy exam period. (C) Skill level matters too, since a few clubs accept only experienced students. For this reason, most schools allow a short trial period before a final decision. During this period, new members can attend meetings without officially signing up. In the end, a good club should feel like a comfortable break from academic pressure.

This January, our school will run a New Year Goal-Setting Campaign for every student. (A) First, each student will receive a goal card in homeroom class and write one personal goal along with two steps to reach it. (B) Afterward, all the cards will be displayed on the bulletin board outside the library for everyone to see. (C) Once the card is complete, students must submit it to their homeroom teacher by January 9th.

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.

주어진 문장: It was a small decision, but it suddenly felt like the beginning of something new. On the first day of the club fair, the gym was filled with noise and color. ① Every table had a banner, and members called 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 where students were sketching posters together. ③ A calm senior named Jian explained that the art club welcomed complete beginners. She showed me a sketchbook filled with simple drawings by first-year members. ④ 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. ⑤ Walking out of the gym, I finally felt that I belonged in this new school.
