Good morning, residents of Green Apartment! We would like to introduce a simple way to protect our environment. Used batteries, ①what contain harmful chemicals, should never be ②thrown away with regular trash. If these chemicals leak into the soil, they can pollute water and harm plants.

Generative AI systems learn to write, draw, and compose by studying enormous collections of existing human work.

Behavioral economists use the term temporal discounting to describe how people undervalue future rewards simply because those rewards are not immediate. This tendency explains why a student might choose to watch videos tonight rather than study for an exam that remains several weeks away, even though studying offers a greater long-term benefit. A distant reward, no matter how valuable, feels psychologically smaller than a small reward available right now. This bias contributes to procrastination, since future consequences rarely feel urgent enough to motivate immediate action. To counter this tendency, students should convert distant goals into smaller, near-term milestones that feel more emotionally real. Setting weekly checkpoints rather than a final deadline can make future benefits feel closer and more concrete. Teachers and parents should provide immediate, meaningful feedback, since ___________.

In recent years, mental health experts have identified a distinct emotional response to environmental crisis, commonly called eco-anxiety. ( ① ) Eco-anxiety describes persistent worry, grief, or fear triggered by awareness of climate change and its consequences for the future. ( ② ) Although people of all ages can experience it, teenagers and young adults seem especially vulnerable, since they anticipate living through decades of worsening conditions. ( ③ ) Common symptoms include difficulty sleeping, a sense of hopelessness, and guilt over ordinary choices such as travel or diet.

주어진 문장: In other words, the paper completely loses its original shape and becomes a soft, wet mixture. Every day, people throw away piles of used paper without thinking about where it goes. ① However, most of that paper does not have to end up in a landfill. Instead, it can travel to a recycling factory and become brand new paper again. ② First, workers collect old newspapers, boxes, and notebooks left in recycling bins. These papers are then soaked in water and turned into soft, mushy pulp. ③ You can think of this process like breaking a cookie back into flour and water. For example, ink and small pieces of plastic are removed from the pulp during this stage. ④ The clean pulp is pressed into thin sheets and dried in large machines. Therefore, a wrinkled old newspaper can be reborn as clean white paper. ⑤ In contrast to throwing paper away, recycling it saves trees and reduces waste.

For example, tea bags should never be placed in the food waste bin. ⑤ Thank you for helping our neighborhood stay pleasant.
