3a
Last Friday started terribly. First, my alarm clock didn’t go off, so I woke up late and had to rush to the bus stop.
I had a test that morning, so I was reviewing my notes while I was waiting for my bus. All of a sudden, thunder rolled across the sky. Then it started to pour. The wind was too strong for me to use my umbrella!
By the time the bus came, I was cold and wet. I was still worrying about the test when the bus driver said that we would be late. There was a landslide along our usual road.
“ 突然 ”,相当于suddenly
When I finally reached my classroom, out of breath,
my teacher was already waiting at the door. Many
others were also late because of the rainstorm.
As a result, she said we weren’t having a test
after all! What luck on my unlucky day!

A bad day
Last Wednesday, I had a really bad day. It was stomy. ①The
wind howled outside, and the heavy rain hit the window loudly.
②I woke up late because my alarm clock didn’t go off. ③I rushed to catch the bus, but it left just as I arrived. So I had to walk to school in the rain. My shoes and uniform got completely wet. ④When I finally got to school, I found I’d left my math homework at home.
My teacher was angry and asked me to finish it after class.
I felt cold and upset all day. All I wanted was that the day would end soon. By evening, I even caught a slight cold. ⑤What an unlucky day!
