10、rprise Ending O.Henrys trademark was the surprise ending that each of his stories contained.He would set a story moving in one direction,and just when the reader was convinced of the general direction of the narrative,the story would be completely reversed.第9页/共14页第九页，编辑于星期日：点 二十七分。Although O.Henry

12、hat seem unimportant at first memories.But become immensely important when the surprise ending is“revealed”.An example of this is in the story the last Leaf，where reader sees clues of what the old artist living downtowns has done to save the life of the girl upstairs.尽管短篇小说这种文学形式并非欧亨利首创，但他堪称这种文体的大师级
13、人物，而且还将出人意料的这种结局技巧发扬至完美。在故事展开的过程中，他就开始为结局埋下伏笔，手法非常熟稔巧妙，通过那些初看似乎无关紧要的细节，设置，他不断给读者以小小的暗示，然而，直到故事真相大白的那一刻，读者才会意识到当初那些细枝末节是多么重要。最后一片叶子就是一个典型例子。在这篇小说里，读者其实可以发现很多蛛丝马迹，揭示楼下的那位老画家是如何挽救那位姑娘的生命的。第10页/共14页第十页，编辑于星期日：点 二十七分。We know the old man has been waiting his whole life to paint his masterpiece.Not until t
