阅读 B Joe’s Bad Day

We all have off-days that are usually quite unpleasant. For Joe, one day was a perfect example of such a terrible time. From early morning, unexpected and unlucky things kept happening, turning his common day into a total 65______.

When I was making my breakfast, the milk bottle fell over after I opened it. The milk spilled all over the table and got me all wet. I was so upset, but there was hardly any time for me to clean up the mess or put on a clean shirt before the school bus came. And then everything just kept 66______, and I couldn’t figure out why.

On the way to school, I caught sight of myself in a store window, which made me freeze right there. My hair stuck up high on one side, as if it was trying to reach the sky. And the shirt I took 67______ didn’t match my trousers at all.

People walking by looked at me. Some of them snickered (偷笑). One kid even pointed at me. I stood rooted to the sidewalk and couldn’t move. I felt so 68______ that I just wanted to hide.

After getting to school, I went straight to the water fountain. I wanted to wet my wild hair down. I pushed the button, but nothing came out. When I pushed it again and looked closely to see what was wrong, all of a sudden, the water shot up right into my face. My heart raced as I stood there, my face burning hot.

Well, my hair looked a bit better, but now my shirt was 69______ wet. And as if things couldn’t get any worse, I realized the water from the fountain had flowed all over my school bag too.

I quietly sat down at my desk, hoping that 70______ would notice me. But Mr. Stone looked right at me and smiled, “Joe, looks like you just had a water adventure today!” The whole class burst into laughter.

阅读 C｜Iron Flower

Iron flower, also known as iron tree, is a traditional firework made of hammered molten iron. It is popular in Henan, Shanxi, Hebei and nearby regions, and is listed as one of China's intangible cultural heritage items.

Iron flower was developed by ancient craftsmen when making metal tools accidentally. It began in the Northern Song dynasty and developed further in the Ming and Qing dynasties, with a history of more than 1,000 years. Today, iron flower is widely spread in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, especially in Henan and Shanxi.

When performing iron flower, the performer must carefully choose an open area without flammable materials and keep a safe distance from the audience. Iron blocks are heated in a high-temperature oven to about 1600°C until they melt into molten iron. The temperature must be carefully controlled to ensure quality. Craftsmen wear a full set of protective equipment, including gloves preventing their hands from burns and goggles keeping flying sparks out of their eyes. Every piece works together to keep them safe. Using special tools, they throw the molten iron into the air, where it reacts with oxygen and forms countless golden sparks.

For centuries, beating iron flowers required great physical strength and professional skills. Workers usually had strong arms to swing heavy hammers and enough energy to keep working for hours in the hot fire. As a result, it was passed down only to males instead of females.

However, this tradition is now facing new challenges. Jiang Xunqian became the first woman to learn this skill. She started by hitting stones, then sand, then water, practising again and again. After years of hard work, she finally made it.

Jiang's love for iron flower runs deep—she even teaches basic moves to local kids in her free time. She's determined to pass this skill on to her own daughter, hoping to keep the ancient art alive through her family. Her success not only shows personal courage, but also proves that traditional culture can continue to develop in modern society.

阅读 D Anne of Green Gables

BOOK OF THE WEEKAnne of Green GablesAnne of Green Gables is a great book of Lucy Maud Montgomery.

In the story, two siblings, Marilla and Matthew, live on a farm called Green Gables. They are getting old and need someone to help with the farm work. So, they decide to adopt a boy from an orphanage. But there's a mistake. Instead of a boy, a girl named Anne Shirley is sent to them. Anne has red hair and a very big imagination. She loves talking a lot and often makes silly, funny mistakes. This story tells us how this lonely little girl finds a home at Green Gables. She grows up with love and hope around her.

Lucy Maud MontgomeryMontgomery was raised by her grandparents following her mother's early death. She began keeping diaries and writing poetry at the age of nine, and this creative practice helped ease her loneliness. She finished writing Anne of Green Gables in 1905, getting ideas from her own childhood stories. When the book was finally published three years later, it became an immediate hit among readers of all ages. When she died in 1942, she was buried in her hometown of Cavendish, Prince Edward Island.

Some book reviews of Anne of Green GablesCathy: Anne is smart, brave, and filled with feelings. She is not quiet or perfect—she makes mistakes, gets angry, and dreams big. This made children see that girls can be strong and independent. Today, many books have strong girl characters, like Hermione in Harry Potter. Anne helped start this idea.

Ben: Anne sees magic in ordinary things—trees are "flower queens", and lakes are "sea of beauty", which makes the story lively and interesting. Today, many children's books use imagination to help kids see the world in a new way. Books like Where the Wild Things Are also show how imagination helps children deal with feelings.

Linda: Before Anne, many children's books were about being good and obeying rules. Anne's story is different—it is about being yourself, using your mind, and finding your place in the world. This new style has influenced many books we read today.

第三步：PEEL 结构成文（中考范文）

Dear Mr. Zhang,

I am writing to share my opinion about the bird nests outside our classroom window. I strongly suggest that we should not remove the nests.

Birds are our friends, and protecting them is our duty. The sound of birds singing is a gift from nature, which makes our school life more lively. Although it is a little noisy during our study time, we can solve this problem easily. For example, we can close the windows when we have self-study classes, or we can wear soft earplugs to keep quiet.

I believe we can balance our study and protecting nature. Let’s live in harmony with the lovely birds.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua
