Cheat! Form 2 Short Story MARCH 11, 2016 | 4SKILLSACADEMIC | 19 COMMENTS Originality is very important when you are doing innovative and creative work. However, every new idea we produced might be inspired from somewhere. So, the question is that, “does originality really exist in this world?” What do you think? Notes on Cheat! by Allan Baillie Author: Allan Baillie Se猀椀ing: The story took place in various places of an Australian school (e.g. hall, library, classroom, corridor, principal’s office). It set in the modern and educated social background where people were appreciate talent in writing. (p.102) “…how do you create a character from a one‑eyed, dumb red kelpie (h猀椀ps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Kelpie)……” From the word “kelpie”, which is a type of Australian breed dog, we made a guess that the story took place in Australia. Step by step guide in understanding the story Announcement winner for the Holmes – Walkins Medal “Lynne opened her eyes and gripped her seat……” 1. How was Lynne Webbings feel while she was waiting for the result? “Geoff Bolder and Lynne Webbings both wrote very fine short stories for the medal…… Lynne felt her mouth moving…… Lynne’s story about a sheepdog in a flood was both exciting and moving…. Geoff’s story of a circus elephant running loose in Albert Park……” 2. What is Lynne’s story about? And what is Geoff’s story about? “She made her way to Geoff as he came down from the dais with the medal and congratulated him. She went home and everything tasted of cardboard that night……” 3. Who won the medal?

3. Who won the medal? 4. How did Lynne feel after the result has announced? Lynne’s discovery “She read it again. And again. The tips of her ears prickled with anger…… He did not write it at all, he just copied it down.” 1. Why did Lynne feel angry? “Please sir, Geoff beat me in the short story competition and I hate to lose. So I am telling you how he cheated so you can give the medal to me……” 2. What was Lynne thinking to do? Lynne’s explosion of anger “ ‘or Bradburie.’ The words exploded from Lynne’s mouth in a sudden burst of anger.” 1. Why did Lynne suddenly shout “Bradburie” in the class? “Later Lynne saw that all the Bradburie books had been taken from the school library……” 2. What happens to the Bradburie’s book in the library? 3. Who has taken the book? 4. Why was the book taken? In the principal office “…… I read the book. There’s a story there about an elephant escaping in a park. It is not much like Geoff’s story, but Geoff feels he took the idea from the book without realising it. He wants me to disqualify him for cheating” What do you think? A story of similar idea but a different story, is it consider cheating? “… your story, Lynne, being entirely original, must be considered a li猀椀le be猀椀er……” So, is Lynne considered as the winner of the medal now? “She began to wonder where it was that she had read a story about a sheepdog in a flood.” Why is she doing that?

4skillsacademic says: APRIL 20, 2016 AT 8:14 PM Lynne was waiting for the Holmes‑Walkin short story competition result. Before that, Lynne spent a great amount of time writing on her short story which was about a sheepdog in a flood. Unfortunately, the result announced, Geoff’s story about an elephant ran wild in the park was the winner. Lynne felt disappointed and sad. One day, Lynne found a book by William Bradburie in the library. The story was similar to Geoff’s story. She accused that Geoff was cheating by copy the story. Then Geoff took the book to Mr. Velos, the school principal and asked Mr. Velos to disqualify him. Mr Velos found that the short story was almost similar, but Geoff story was still considered original. After a while, Lynne was asked into the principal room. Mr Velos explained to her that Geoff’s story was still considered original and he was not cheating. At the same time, Mr Velos announced that Lynne was the new winner, because her story was entirely original. However, Lynne did not feel happy about the result and she was worried that she might have read a similar story about the sheepdog in a flood.
5. xxx says: APRIL 19, 2016 AT 9:28 PM Why did Lynne thinks that she read the sheepdog in a flood before ? Is it because that taking the idea from the original story isnt consider as cheating or what ? 1.
