Classroom / Practice Rules

No card-by-card adaptation: Memorize chunks and the narrative arc, not separate essays.
Band difference is language: Band 5–6 and 7–8 candidates tell the exact same story; only syntactic structures and lexical density upgrade.
Keep bridge clauses: In Cluster 4 & 6, keep the past/future pivots intact so every sibling card is satisfied.
