that he had once had a bloody killing experience.

years ago, stood in the cold rain night, sincerely and firmly waiting for the arrival of old
friends. In Bob, there is no deceit, no dark, dirty mind.

Surprise 2 ( 续写结尾 )

son to give Bob a warm welcom.
Post-reading
O. Henry’s stories are
famous for their
surprise endings.
At first the character’s words and behavior make people think that the character is rude or
indifferent, doesn’t care about others. But on the contrary, the surprise ending reveals the
chacter’s thoughtfulness and willness to help others.
After twenty years Bob got out of jail, lost and helpless. Jimmy still didn’t show up. Another
man appeared and gave Bob a note just like 20 years ago. The note was still from Jimmy.
But this time Jimmy arranged a warm welcome for Bob.
From his first note, we think that Jimmy was a upright policeman, not caring about Bob. But
his second note revealed that Jimmy cared very much about Bob and their friendship.

How to produce a surprise ending
Strategy 3: To reveal an Incredible Truth
To reveal an incredible truth also leads to a surprise ending.
In the whole story, the function of Jimmy’s notes is very important. The two notes give us
information which is not mentioned in previous plots. We just get to konw the truth at the
last moment of the story, which is a very interesting and exciting experience for us. Using
this strategy can arouse reader’s attraction.
Now let’s write your own ending.
It was a cold winter night when Bob came out of jail. After twenty years behind bars, he felt like a stranger to
the city and everyone in it. Lost and helpless, he didn't know where to go or whom to go to. A year after he had
been arrested, his wife had left him and taken their daughter with her. Former good friends had cut all contact
with him.
"Is there anyone here who still thinks of me?"he wondered bitterly. Recalling the night twenty years earlier that
had completely changed his life, he wandered blindly through the streets. In the dim light of a streetlamp, he
noticed an old man sitting on a bench."Another lonely man, just like me," he thought to himself.
"Bob," the old man looked up. Although twenty years had passed, he could still recognize that face-Jimmy's
face."I'm here for our meeting, though I don't know if you still want it. Anyway, welcome home, buddy!""Long
time no see," murmured Bob, his voice trembling. The uncertainty was gone. He now had a home.
The more friends you
A few true friends are
have,
enough.
the happier you will be.
Point of view: The more friends you have, the happier you will be.
When I began my senior high, I just had two fiends. When I wanted to
talk about my feelings with them, they were too busy. As time goes on, I
have more friends. Whenever I need help or someone to listen to me, I
can always find a friend or two.
In short, we live in the world and we need our friends this way or that
way. The more friends you have, the happier you will be.
