The science club at Hanul High School is running a project ①called "Grow Light." It tests how different colors of light affect plant growth. Each week, members place identical bean sprouts under red, blue, and white light and ②record their height. At first, many students expected the white light ③to produce the tallest plants. However, the results showed that plants under red light grew noticeably ④fast than the others. The club's advisor explained this by comparing light to food. Just as people need certain nutrients to grow strong, plants absorb certain colors of light more efficiently than others. To make the data reliable, students repeat each trial three times and calculate the average. They also keep a shared notebook, ⑤recording sunlight, watering time, and temperature.

Heatstroke happens when the body's temperature ①rises too high and cannot cool itself down. To prevent heatstroke, you should drink plenty of water throughout the day, ②even if you do not feel thirsty. If you notice symptoms such as dizziness or a very high body temperature, ③move to a shaded place immediately. Children, ④who sweat less than adults, are especially at risk of heatstroke. It is also wise ⑤avoiding outdoor activities between noon and five o'clock, when the sun is strongest.

Generative AI systems learn to write, draw, and compose by studying ①enormous collections of existing human work, much of which was created without the artists' knowledge or consent. Supporters of the technology argue that this process resembles how a human student learns by studying the masters, ②absorbing style and technique rather than copying specific pieces. Critics respond that the comparison ③holds up perfectly at scale, since a single AI model can absorb millions of works in days. Courts around the world are now being asked to decide whether training an algorithm on copyrighted material counts as fair use or as ④infringement. Until clearer rules emerge, artists, developers, and publishers remain locked in a legal ⑤gray zone that satisfies almost no one.

At first, Minjun thought the campaign sounded ①boring and unnecessary for someone like him. However, his teacher explained that leftover food thrown away every day adds up to a ②huge amount of waste. This comparison ③surprised Minjun because he had never thought about food that way before. Within a few weeks, his tray was almost always ④full, and he felt ⑤proud of the change.

Financial markets occasionally experience episodes in which asset prices rise far beyond any level that careful analysis of underlying fundamentals could justify, a phenomenon commonly attributed to herd psychology. During such episodes, individual investors, observing that prices have already risen substantially, often conclude that continuing to buy is ①reasonable simply because so many others are doing the same, rather than because any independent evaluation supports the purchase. This dynamic can become self-perpetuating: rising prices attract new buyers, whose purchases push prices higher still, thereby attracting yet another wave of buyers convinced that the upward trend itself constitutes ②reliable evidence of underlying value. Historical episodes of speculative excess display a strikingly similar pattern, suggesting that the underlying psychological mechanism remains ③variable even as the specific assets involved change considerably across centuries. Eventually, however, some triggering event, however minor, prompts a portion of investors to ④reconsider their assumptions, and the resulting wave of selling can trigger a collapse every bit as rapid and self-reinforcing as the original ⑤ascent.

Starting a new diary or planner in January is easy, but keeping it useful all year is ①harder. This guide offers simple tips for using a planner to manage your New Year goals. First, write one ②clear goal at the top of each month so you always remember your main target. Second, break that goal into small weekly tasks instead of writing ③vague plans. Third, check your planner every morning and mark tasks as done when you finish them. Reviewing your notes every Sunday helps you notice patterns in your habits. Finally, do not worry if you skip a day, since staying ④careless matters more than being perfect. These habits can turn your planner into a ⑤powerful tool for reaching your goals.

Many students take a career aptitude test at some point in high school. This test is designed to ___________. It does not simply tell students which job to choose. Instead, it helps them understand themselves better. For example, a student who enjoys solving problems might discover a hidden interest in engineering. Another student who likes helping others might find that a career in counseling suits her well. However, the results should be used only as a guide, not as a final answer. Therefore, students should treat the test as a useful starting point for exploring various career paths, rather than a fixed decision that limits their future choices.

Students are frequently told that where they study makes little difference, provided that they put in enough hours. Cognitive research on memory retrieval, however, suggests that this advice oversimplifies an important process. (A) A striking demonstration involved divers who memorized word lists either underwater or on dry land. When tested later, divers recalled substantially more words if the testing environment matched the original learning environment. This held true regardless of which environment that happened to be. (B) According to the encoding specificity principle, information becomes intertwined with the context in which it was originally learned. Cues present during encoding therefore facilitate retrieval far more effectively than cues encountered elsewhere. (C) This finding implies that reviewing material exclusively in a quiet bedroom may not adequately prepare a student for the noisy atmosphere of an actual examination hall. Rather than assuming that memorization is a context-free process, students ought to consider deliberately varying study locations and conditions. Doing so would ensure that retrieval cues remain available regardless of how a future test is administered.

However, even confident swimmers can get into trouble in open water. Summer is the best time to enjoy swimming pools, rivers, and beaches with family and friends. ( ① ) First, always swim in areas that are supervised by a lifeguard, and never swim alone, even if you are a strong swimmer. ( ② ) It is also important to check the weather and water conditions before entering the water, since strong currents and sudden storms can appear without warning. ( ③ ) Wearing a life jacket in open water is essential, especially for children and beginners. ( ④ ) Taking regular breaks during long swims helps prevent exhaustion. ( ⑤ ) Learning basic rescue skills is another good habit that could help you save a life someday.

주어진 문장: Please make sure to write your goal clearly, since it will be shown to other students. Attention, all students! Our school is starting a New Year Goal-Setting Campaign to help everyone begin the year with clear direction. ( ① ) During the first week of January, every student will receive a small goal card in homeroom class. ( ② ) On this card, write one personal goal for the new year, along with two simple steps you plan to take to achieve it. ( ③ ) After completing your card, submit it to your homeroom teacher by January 9th. ( ④ ) All goal cards will then be displayed on the bulletin board outside the library, so students can read and encourage one another. ( ⑤ ) In February, students who show clear progress toward their goals will receive a small prize during the morning assembly.
