As technology ①developing rapidly, many new jobs are appearing that did not exist a decade ago. Data analysts, for example, help companies make decisions ②based on huge amounts of information. Renewable energy technicians, ③who install and repair solar panels and wind turbines, are meeting the growing demand for clean power. Healthcare is expanding beyond hospitals, creating roles for specialists ④designing digital health tools for elderly patients. Experts predict that future workers will need ⑤to keep learning new skills throughout their careers.

Jihun made a resolution ①to study English for two hours every day. For the first three days, he studied exactly as planned and ②felt proud of himself. However, on the fourth day, he skipped his study time because he was too exhausted, and within a week, his resolution had disappeared. ③Feeling disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister about it, and she suggested that he ④try a smaller, more realistic goal instead of a large one. Following her advice, he changed his plan to studying English for only twenty minutes each night, and this small goal felt less overwhelming, so he managed ⑤keeping it every day for a month.

A plastic bag that fully decomposes within months rather than lingering for centuries sounds almost too convenient to be real, yet certain bioplastics on the market do exactly that under the right conditions. Unlike conventional plastic, derived almost entirely from petroleum, many bioplastics are synthesized from renewable feedstocks such as corn starch or sugarcane, sometimes with the help of bacteria engineered to produce plastic-like polymers as a byproduct of their metabolism. Not every bioplastic biodegrades quickly, however, and some marketed as eco-friendly break down only in industrial composting facilities that reach conditions rarely found in a backyard compost heap or the open ocean. _______________. Researchers are now exploring bioplastics made from agricultural waste and algae instead of dedicated crops, hoping to sidestep this competition for land while preserving the benefits that first made bioplastics appealing.

Dear members of the Debate Club, I am writing to let you know that our regular meeting time has been changed. We usually meet in Room 304 every Wednesday after school, but _______________. Instead, our meeting will be held in the library on Thursday at the same time. Please bring the debate topic that you prepared last week, since we will practice our arguments together. If you cannot attend the new meeting time, please reply to this email by Tuesday evening. We also need two volunteers to arrange the chairs and tables before the meeting begins. Mr. Park, our club advisor, will join us this time to give feedback on our speaking skills. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to seeing everyone on Thursday.

Sunny Beach Rentals is now open for the summer season, offering ___________. Customers can rent items such as beach umbrellas, folding chairs, snorkeling gear, paddleboards, and life jackets in various sizes at affordable daily rates.

Attention, students! Our school festival is going green this year, and we truly need your help. This event aims to reduce the disposable waste that usually piles up during the celebration. First, _______________. Second, each booth should use reusable decorations rather than paper banners that get thrown away within hours. Students who join as Green Helpers will manage the recycling stations, sorting cans, bottles, and paper carefully all day long. Therefore, everyone's small cooperation will directly lower the amount of trash sent to the landfill. However, single-use plastic bags are strictly prohibited at every booth this year. If your booth needs supplies, please contact the student council office before Friday. Let us work together to create a festival that is both fun and eco-friendly.

The ethical debate surrounding nudging often intensifies when the technique is applied to particularly vulnerable populations. (A) Elderly individuals facing complex decisions about long-term care, for example, may be especially susceptible to defaults and framing effects, raising the stakes of any given choice architecture considerably. (B) Some ethicists argue that heightened vulnerability actually strengthens the case for carefully designed nudges, since vulnerable individuals may otherwise fall prey to more overtly exploitative influences, such as aggressive sales tactics, if a beneficial default is not established first. (C) Others insist that heightened vulnerability demands greater caution rather than more intervention, since those least equipped to resist a nudge are also least equipped to recognize when it no longer serves their genuine interests.

Millions of people now wear devices that continuously track their heart rate, sleep patterns, and daily activity, generating an intimate stream of health data. (A) In practice, however, the terms of service that few people read often grant the manufacturer broad rights to store, analyze, and even sell anonymized versions of that data. (B) Users generally assume this information belongs to them, since it is drawn directly from their own bodies. (C) This arrangement becomes especially troubling when health data influences decisions far beyond fitness, such as insurance premiums or employment screening.

Imagine two factories making the same product: one in a country with strict carbon rules, and one in a country with almost none. (A) However, critics claim it unfairly burdens developing countries, which often lack money to modernize factories quickly. For example, a small exporter in a poorer nation might struggle to pay the added charge, though it contributes little to global emissions. Still, if wealthier nations pair the policy with technical support, it could become a genuinely fair tool for cutting emissions worldwide. (B) Supporters argue that the system protects domestic industries and pushes foreign manufacturers toward cleaner methods. (C) The factory facing stricter rules often spends more, which can make its goods pricier than those made elsewhere. To fix this imbalance, some governments have introduced the carbon border adjustment mechanism, a policy charging imported goods a fee based on how much carbon was released while producing them.

Psychologists point to three main reasons why new year's resolutions often fail within a few days. (A) Second, many resolutions are unrealistic from the start, since people set goals that are far too difficult to reach in a short time. (B) First, willpower works like a muscle that becomes tired after being used too much, so people run out of self-control quickly. (C) Third, most resolutions do not offer any immediate reward, which makes it hard to stay motivated without seeing fast results.
