【推荐1】George Reeder, 63, in Somerset has been given a bravery certificate（证书）for saving the life of a baby boy.

It was a cold and windy morning. The local harbour master, George Reeder, was carrying out his regular duties when he heard a noise that caught his attention. On the other side of the harbour, some people were pointing and shouting, so he cycled over quickly Mr Reeder expected to see a dog in the sea, bu instead, he saw a baby’s buggy（婴儿车）in about four metres of freezing cold water. A woman was screaming desperately - her baby boy was trapped into the buggy and was in the water. The strong wind had blown the buggy into the sea. Mr Reeder quickly decided to do something.

“I went over and saw that the buggy was upside - down ... and I jumped in,” said Mr Reeder. He pulled the buggy over to the sea wall. Then some other people came to help. They tired a rope to the buggy and managed to pull it out of the water and to safety.

Tanya Allen, a passer - by (who, fortunately, was a nurse), gave the baby CPR（心肺复苏术）and was able to get him to breathe again. Mr Reeder remembered seeing a little bit of breath coming out of the baby’s mouth. ‘I thought, he is all right. He’s alive. Brilliant!” he said. Then an air ambulance helicopter arrived and the baby was taken to hospital. Mr Reeder said it was unbelievable that baby survived. ‘It’s such a miracle,’ Mr Reeder added.

After he’d finished helping the baby and the helicopter had gone, Mr Reeder went home to recover from the experience. The child’s grandfather knew Mr Reeder and, a little later, went to his house to tell him that the boy was out of danger. Mr Reeder was very relieved and happy to hear that.

Mr Reeder said that he hadn’t really been brave. ‘It was everyone - from Tanya doing the CPR to the helicopter pilot,’ he said. ‘I’m just glad I could help. But when Mr Reeder got the certificate, a reporter said that what he’d done was very brave. ‘This was an extremely brave act, as he put his own life at risk.’ The reporter has advised local people to avoid walking along the seafront in very windy weather.
