闲聊
昨天在食堂吃完晚饭，等上第三节晚自修的间隙，几个朋友一边散步一边瞎聊，不知怎么的话题转到人性问题。我们其中一个闺蜜说，如果我们几个直肠子进宫，毫无心机，估计第一集就要领盒饭了！听完，我们哈哈大笑，是的，性格直率，不善专营，不喜奉承，哪能斗得过他人！
不过，我转念一想（on second thought）, 我们是做白日梦吧，我们一群老娘们哪有机会进宫，凭什么？拼什么？一无盛世美颜，二无经济实力，三无惊世才华，四无皇亲国戚，... 原来真是想多了！
一场白日梦惊醒，继续如牛马般搬砖，来也匆匆，去也匆匆，徒留疲惫身影，任由他人评述。
开心一刻
生活有点单调，每天两点一线。读后续写阅卷中发现的令人啼笑皆非的不合理情节设计，倒成了我们生活的调味品。
忍不住狂笑！这次是继“粉红鸭”后最开心的一次阅卷体验！
故事背景：一名勤勉称职工作15年无工作bug的动物管理员（zookeeper）, 一天深夜下班，去停车场路上，发现钥匙丢失，无法回家，于是返回动物园，夜宿鸟笼旁的板凳上。睡梦中惊醒，无意撞见一帮盗贼行窃。
如果你是动物管理员，当遭遇企图破锁的偷鸟贼，你该如何应对？
且看本年级娃们五花八门的续写情节，有的令人瞠目结舌，有的令人忍俊不禁。
1. 孤身斗窃贼（fight / struggle against the burglars），却被捆绑树上；
2. 假装狮叫或一声怒吼吓跑盗贼（pretend to be a lion or shouted to scare them away）；
3. 叫醒狮子，狮子大吼，吓跑盗贼(wake up the lion)；
4. 用手机播放视频（play the video），装作警察，吓退窃贼；
5. 诱导窃贼进鸟笼，将其关鸟笼里(lock them in the bird cage)；
6.原来是一场误会（misunderstanding），盗贼是游客或小孩子来给鸟喂食 (feed the birds)；
7. 好言好语，说服感化并劝退窃贼，甚至劝说他们当zookeeper;
... ...
唉，他们果然涉世不深，too young , too naive, 当是嫌疑侦探小说啊！
读后续写指导
1.明确主题，写出主旨词，列故事简要提纲（短语即可）。
发现窃贼，冷静处理，及时报警，将窃贼绳之于法。
set off the alarm / call the police and arrest the burglars
2.确定主次角色，视角、人称、时态准确。
3.注意所给句和下文的衔接。不随意增添新人物和新物件。
尽量不出现stone, stick等文中没有提及的物品。
4.注意原文伏笔，把故事讲完整。
如果最后窃贼逃跑，不符合续写原则，故事不完整，结局要扬善惩恶。
5. 续写中解决问题要涉及的方法、工具等从原文中找线索（clue）。
思考：文中有何伏笔？依靠什么方法抓住盗贼？（见文中蓝体字部分线索提示。）
6. 情节设计合情合理，不追求离奇吸睛。
7. 唯一值得商榷的疑点：钥匙丢了，故事结尾处，需要交代吗？
个人认为：无需交代，非故事主要矛盾。这只是为动物管理员为何夜宿动物园，巧遇盗贼的提供背景信息。
我的下水文（借鉴部分原范文）
The zoo keeper saw two people in front of a bird cage trying to break the lock. He felt a sudden urge to step forward to stop them. But on second thought, he calmed down, knowing it would only potentially put himself in danger. So he quietly felt his way to the light switch. With shaky hands, he pressed the button. Suddenly, the alarm went off throughout the zoo. For a moment, the burglars froze in shock, but as they realized what had happened, they dashed towards the entrance. Unlucky for them, they were arrested by the coming guardians and police who were quick to the alarm. The zookeeper smiled, relieved to find all his beloved animals safe and sound.
原文重现：
Late Night at the Zoo
A zoo keeper had been working at a zoo for 15 years and never experienced any problems. He always worked the evening shifts because he was trusted to properly lock up the zoo. On a warm summer night in late June, the zoo keeper turned off the lights and wished all of his animals a good night. He left the zoo and walked to his car in the parking lot. As he reached in his back pocket, he realized that his keys had gone missing. He rapidly turned around and realized he had left them inside the zoo. He quickly walked back towards the Zoo's entrance, hoping he would see them along the way.
When he arrived at the door, to his surprise, the door was unlocked. In fear of setting off the alarm that he had just set, he did not turn on the lights. The zoo keeper turned on the flashlight on his phone and began to make his way to the office. He looked around at all the animals in their cages and thought to himself how different the zoo becomes at night. When he walked by the lion's cages, he could see the young cubs playing together. He liked the zoo better at this hour because night was when the animals came to life.
At last, he made it back to the office. Unfortunately this time, he was not so lucky. The office door was locked and he knew that if he were to break the window, he would set off the alarm. Knowing there was no way inside, the zoo keeper began to weigh his options. He knew he could not get into his home without his keys, so he decided it would be best to spend the night inside the zoo. The zookeeper walked towards the bird cages because he knew he could sleep comfortably on the benches néar the stage.
A few hours later, the zookeeper heard a door slam that woke him up. “Quiet!” a voice whispered.
“What? There's no one here,” another voice said. “The old man left hours ago. Alright, let's just grab the animals and get out of here.”
The zookeeper didn't know what to do. “What if they were armed?” The zoo keeper thought to himself. He listened closely and realized there was a group of burglars in the zoo.
