这里的貌似也不错

from django.db import models

class PublicArticleManager(models.Manager):
    def get_query_set(self):
        return super(PublicArticleManager, self).get_query_set().filter(public = True)

class Article(models.Model):
    #...
    public =  models.BooleanField('是否发表', default = False)

    objects = models.Manager()
    public_articles = PublicArticleManager()
