Dear residents, this notice explains how ①using our apartment recycling area correctly. The recycling area, ②located behind the main entrance, is open every day from six to ten in the evening. First, sort your items into the labeled sections for paper, plastic, glass, and cans before ③dropping them off. Boxes should be flattened, and bottles should be ④emptied, because dirty items are hard to recycle. However, please do not leave large furniture or electronics in this area at any time. Instead, contact the management office ⑤to arrange a separate pickup for those bulky items. For example, broken chairs and old refrigerators require a special sticker before collection. In contrast to ordinary trash, recyclable materials must never be mixed together in one bag. Following these simple rules keeps our shared space tidy for every family.

Remote work has moved from a rare privilege to a common practice for millions of employees worldwide. Many companies that once required workers ①to commute daily now allow them to complete tasks from home. Supporters argue that remote work increases productivity, since employees avoid long commutes and ②distracting office environments. It also allows companies to hire talented people regardless of where they live, ③widening the pool of candidates. Critics, however, worry that remote work weakens teamwork and ④make it harder for new employees to learn from experienced colleagues. Without regular face-to-face interaction, some workers feel isolated and ⑤struggle to build strong professional relationships.

Soojin started posting short cooking videos on her phone during her last year of high school, never imagining it could become a career. At first, only a handful of friends watched her clips, and she nearly ①quit after several months without noticeable growth. She kept experimenting, however, adjusting her editing style and posting more ②consistently despite the discouraging numbers. Everything changed when one video demonstrating a simple recipe unexpectedly reached millions of viewers overnight. Within a year, Soojin was earning ③more from her online content than most entry-level jobs would have paid her. Still, she quickly learned that being a creator demanded ④minimal work, since algorithms rewarded frequent uploads and audiences expected fresh content daily. Looking back, Soojin realizes that persistence, rather than luck alone, transformed her hobby into a ⑤demanding profession.

Many students give up on their New Year goals because the goals feel too ①big to handle. A more effective approach is to break a large goal into ②smaller, manageable steps. Once you complete that small step, move on to the next one, and gradually build toward the bigger goal. This method works because small tasks feel ③impossible, and completing them gives a sense of success. That feeling of success encourages you to keep going. Over time, small steps add up to real progress, like bricks eventually forming a ④strong wall. Starting small is often the ⑤smartest way to reach a big dream.

Artificial intelligence has begun to play a surprising role in creative industries once thought to be uniquely human. Some artists ①welcome this technology, using AI tools to explore new styles or overcome creative blocks that once took weeks to resolve. Others, however, argue that AI-generated art ②lacks the emotional depth that comes from genuine human experience. Despite this debate, most experts agree that AI is unlikely to fully ③replace artists anytime soon. Instead, it functions best as a collaborative tool, helping creators experiment ④faster while leaving final artistic decisions to humans. Therefore, artists who learn to work alongside AI may find themselves with a distinct ⑤disadvantage in this rapidly changing industry.

Mira had lived in a coastal village since birth, watching the tide creep closer to her family's doorstep every year. When the sea finally swallowed the rice paddies that had fed her village for generations, her parents decided that staying was no longer possible. Together with many neighbors, they packed what little they could carry and moved inland, becoming what experts now call climate migrants, _______________. This term, rarely used a decade ago, has become increasingly common as extreme weather displaces communities worldwide. 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. 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.

A cricket contains, gram for gram, roughly as much protein as beef, yet requires a small fraction of the land, water, and feed needed to raise cattle. This efficiency has drawn growing attention from researchers looking for ways to feed a global population that continues to climb while arable land remains essentially fixed. Insects also convert feed into body mass with remarkable efficiency, since they are cold-blooded and therefore spend far less energy regulating body temperature than a cow or pig must. _______________. Food companies have responded by grinding insects into a flour that disappears into protein bars, pasta, and baked goods, letting consumers benefit from the nutrition without ever having to look an insect in the eye.

The Greenfield Public Library will offer a variety of special programs for students during summer vacation. From July 20th to August 14th, students can join reading clubs, writing workshops, and science experiment classes. ___________. Interested students should sign up at the front desk or through the library's website before space runs out.

Have you ever wondered why some people stay motivated while others give up quickly? The answer often lies in ___________. When people have no specific goal, they usually feel confused about where to start, and their interest fades within days. For example, a student who simply decides to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too vague. 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. This clarity creates strong motivation because the brain naturally focuses on a clear target. Setting a specific goal is one of the most effective ways to build lasting motivation.

Last spring, Mina joined the school environmental club because she wanted to make a difference. At first, she felt nervous about speaking in front of the other members. (A) Every Friday, the members walked around the school picking up trash near the playground. Mina soon realized that this weekly habit was like watering a small plant every day. For example, a single plastic bottle left outside could take hundreds of years to disappear. (B) However, the club leader, who had been recycling for years, welcomed her warmly. (C) Therefore, the club decided to place clear recycling bins in every classroom. In contrast to her early doubts, Mina began to feel proud of the changes she noticed. Her classmates started separating cans and paper without being reminded by teachers. By the end of the semester, Mina had become an active member.
