Features: All efforts of this series of books ultimately boil down to three specific goals and pursuits: life, exams, and creation. Writing aims to help students better adapt to social life and lay a foundation for entering society, which is also the basic orientation of quality education. To this end, we have designed writing guidance and training for various practical writing styles. While fully encompassing the types of practical writing prescribed by the new curriculum standards, we have also expanded the scope to include some new and common practical writing forms. It is undeniable that students' writing ultimately needs to face exams. In this regard, the series is meticulously designed, balancing urgency and relaxation, adopting a dual-track system appropriately: on one hand, it integrates exam skills into the regular content, breaking it down into smaller parts and tackling it piece by piece; on the other hand, it introduces knowledge closely related to exam content and format in the grades nearing graduation—fifth and sixth, eighth and ninth, and eleventh and twelfth grades—striving for a breakthrough in scores and achieving an ideal alignment between quality education and exam-oriented education. This series aims to popularize while also catering to improvement. Starting from the eleventh and twelfth grades, literary appreciation and creation are introduced, bringing students closer to literature and facilitating a qualitative leap in writing towards literature. This is the last major task the series aims to accomplish: sparking interest in literary creation, guiding students into the world of literature, and fostering preliminary shaping of literary appreciation and creative abilities. In the foreseeable future, it is reasonable to hope that from among them, literary giants like Mao Dun, Ba Jin, and Shen Congwen may emerge. We have every reason to expect that the leap in writing education will sync with the great rejuvenation of the nation.
