Key writing: a three-picture story

Three pictures, one short story

• Part 7 shows three pictures: a girl waits at a bus stop in the rain; she sees an old friend on the bus; they go to a café together.
• You write a story of at least 35 words that uses all three pictures in order.

One or two sentences per picture

• Picture 1: "Yesterday it was raining and Anna was waiting for the bus." Picture 2: "When the bus came, she saw her old friend Mia." Picture 3: "They got off together and had hot chocolate in a café."
• That is about 40 words — enough if every picture is covered.

Use past forms

• Stories use the past simple 一般过去时: waited, saw, went, had. Use was / were + -ing for background: "It was raining."
• Learn common irregular verbs 不规则动词: see → saw, go → went, have → had, get → got, buy → bought.

Connect the events

• Use time words and linkers: first, then, when, after that, finally, and, but, so.
• Keep characters clear: name them once, then use she / he / they.

Common mistakes

Recap

Write from rain and a shelter

• This practice uses three pictures: a plan to walk, rain with no coat, and waiting in a bus shelter.
• Use all three in the past, in order. The story needs at least 35 words. Do not add a fact the pictures cannot show.
