It was a sunny day in Barrie. Stephanie Boddy and her friend Samantha Quinn were 36 on the grass near their apartment building and having a picnic on an old blanket(毯子). Later they would realise this 37 day would become a story of bravery(勇敢).
While making sandwiches and talking about school, Stephanie and Samantha saw 38 unusual above them. 39, they noticed four-year-old Skyler Christou hanging out of a second floor window, almost 40. Without thinking, the girls took the 41 from under their picnic and ran to catch him. They were really scared, 42 they kept going. As Skyler fell, he turned over and over, and the girls kept their blanket 43. “We moved back and forth as he came down,” Stephanie said. “I was really scared.” Skyler fell into the centre of the blanket, and then fell onto the ground. 44, he wasn’t seriously hurt—the blanket 45 him.
The people in the town were happy for the 46 because they did something great. Samantha’s mum felt 47 and said, “I’m so proud of the girls.” Barrie’s police officer heard about it and praised(表扬) the girls, saying they were really 48.
The whole town celebrated Stephanie and Samantha’s heroic(英雄的) act, and the news shared their 49. The two friends became local heroes and made people talk about child safety. They were really happy that a quick 50 turned a common day into a meaningful one. What great girls!
