“I know what’s going to happen! There’s going to be a big wave,” Tilly cried. Unfortunately, her family didn’t believe her and wanted to continue their walk. However, Tilly refused to take a single step further. Finally, her mother decided to continue the walk alone, and the rest of her family returned to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Tilly’s father told a security guard about the tsunami. The security guard was shocked. He knew about the huge earthquake in nearby Indonesia. It meant that a tsunami was possible! He jumped into action right away and rushed to get people off the beach. Everyone began to panic. People were screaming and running as fast as they could when they saw a huge wall of water coming from the sea.
Tilly was right! Her mother was one of the last people on the beach, but thankfully, her family made it to safety just as the water hit the hotel. The 2004 tsunami caused over 200,000 deaths, but no one on the beach died that day.
This true story shows how a single lesson could mean the difference between life and death. Thanks to her knowledge and quick thinking, one schoolgirl was able to save over 100 lives.

a real hero
Last Saturday, I went hiking with my classmates in the mountains. The weather was sunny and the air was fresh. We were all excited and talked happily along the trail.
After walking for about an hour, we heard a strange sound coming from the top of the hill. The sky suddenly turned dark, and the wind became stronger. Some of us felt a little scared.
Our teacher told us not to worry and led us to a small cave nearby. He said we should stay inside until the storm passed. We waited quietly and listened to the rain beating heavily outside.
Ten minutes later, the wind became weaker and the rain slowed down. The teacher checked the weather and said it was safe to go out. We walked out of the cave and saw many broken branches on the trail.
We continued our hike and finally reached the top. The view was amazing, and the whole mountain looked clean and fresh after the storm. We took a lot of photos and felt very proud of ourselves.
