Everyone was enjoying the beautiful weather that morning. Some people were swimming in the sea, and some were relaxing on the beach. But while Tilly was walking along the beach with her family, she noticed something strange. Thick white froth was forming on top of the waves. Next, she saw that the waves were coming in instead of going out. Just then, she remembered something important. Two weeks before, her geography teacher had explained that earthquakes under the sea could create dangerous waves called tsunamis! 2 1 度假 pron.=some people 一些奇怪的事情 在浪尖上 两周前 海底地震 海边漫步 就在这时 而不是 “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. 3 4 将会有..... 不幸地是 refuse to do sth. 拒绝做某事 再往前一步 剩余的；其余的 return to ...返回某地 保安 大地震 立即行动 rush to do sth. 匆忙做某事 他们尽可能快速 一堵巨大的水墙 Tilly was right!
