Tips for Composition

I don't know where I adapted this from but the tips are useful...
Continuous Writting:
~ You was walking home from school. You saw two man at the loby ofyour flat. Your lift is here and you did not bother too much. When you reached your home, and when you are going to unlock your house gate, you saw two men infront of your neighbour's gate picking on the lock......

Compo plan [5 to 10 min]:
Exposition:
- Characters: Me, policemen, neighbour's relatives
- Setting: Near your neighbour's house
- Introdution: Question
- Walking home from school.
- Noticed two ma in black with caps.
- Did not bother as my lift came.
- Went up the lift and went home.

Rising Action:
- Enter home and heard a "click" sound coming from neighbour's house.
- Remembered clearly that neighbour went to Europe for two weeks and should not be back yet.
- Went to peep through the peep hole.

Climax:
- Saw the exact two men picking the locks of my neighbour's house.
- They went inside neighbour's house.
- No adult at home so decided to salvage the situation myself.
- Locked my neighbour's gate with a huge padlock so that the two men could not come out.

Resolution:
- Called the police and they arrived in no time.
- They went inside and about two minutes later, the policemen and the two man came out laughing.
- Policemen explained to me thatthe two men are my neighbour's relatives.
- They are supposed to take care of the house.

Model compo;
          Have you evercaught a burglar? I witnessed a whole inccident and even caught one.

          "Yay! Finally! I can go home! End of school!" I shouted as I made my way home. Pictures of my new "PSP" kept flashing in my mind waiting for me to play. "Click, clock, click, clock" hush shuffling sounds can be heard as I waited for the lift at my lift lobby. At the corner of my eye, I spotted two men wearing black from headto toe. They even wore a cap. I did not bother too much about them as my lift had just arrived. I dashed home and threw my bag onto my sofa and was ready to start my game when I heard the sound "click" coming from my neighbour's door.

          It aroused my suspicion because I recalled very clearly that my neighbours were in Europe for two weeks, hence no one should be at home. Out of curiousity, I peaked through my peep hole. To my horror, I saw the same two men whom I saw at the lift lobby earlier, struggling to open my neighbour's door!

          There were no adults at home so I decided to salvage this situation on my own. "Click!" now the door is opened, the two men went inside. I began to panic, thinking desperately what I should do. Just then, a very clever idea popped into my mind. Recently, my parents bought a huge padlock, so I decided to use it to lock the two strange men inside the house. I did not think they could escape through the window as I lived on the eight floor.

          I waited for my opportunity to come. After five minutes of waiting, I unlocked my door, slowly tip-toed to my neighbour's door and attached the padlock on the door without making any sound. Then I tip-toed back to my house and locked my door and quickly called the police. I kept an eye on my neighbour's door hoping the burglars take a longer time so that the police will be able to catch them. Within minutes, the police arrived. They asked if I called them, I nodded my head and told them sabout the inccident. Then I handed them the key of the padlock. They asked me to stay at home and not interfere. I watched them from my window as they unlocked he padlock and kicked open the door. They all went inside to search for the two strange men.

          Within minutes, the police and the two men came out laughing. I felt very puzzled so I unlocked my door and asked the police. The police explained that the two strange men were actually my neghbour's relatives, they were taking care of the house, just that the key was stuck in the key hole of the door. I flushed with embarrasment and apologised for the inccident.
