2 . A Jacksonville family was grateful to be alive this weekend, and the dad, Steven Poust said it’s all because of his 7-year-old son, Chase. The young boy beat a current that separated him from his father and 4-year-old sister, Abigail, in the St. Johns River near Mandarin Point on Friday.
Steven Poust anchored (抛锚) his boat in the water while he fished and his kids played around it. While Chase and Abigail were in the water, Abigail let go of the boat because of a current and they were both stuck.
Chase felt really scared, because he didn’t have a life jacket on. Luckily Abigail had one but she floated along with the current. Poust jumped in the water trying to grab Abigail while Chase tried to swim to the shore. Poust tried to grasp both of them, but he wore himself out. Abigail floated away from him.
Chase kept swimming to the shore. He first doggie paddled, then floated on his back to make sure he wouldn’t tire himself out. The current went the opposite way of going to the boat and the shore, so it was very hard to swim that way. He made it to the shore while his dad and sister were stuck in the water before being rescued by the firefighters.
Once Chase reached the shore, he ran to the nearest home to knock for help and the hostess called the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department.
“I screamed for help at the top of my lungs and waved my arms and sure enough someone heard me,” Poust said. “Abigail also made it to the shore and got help and our lives were saved.”

A Christmas Visit
As 17-year-old Torriell Norwood drove through St. Petersburg, Florida, last February with her friends to pay a visit to the great park, she shared her dream of becoming a doctor. She had recently taken some first aid courses. The other girls shared stories of their experiences and adventures. But the laughter and chatter from the four teenage girls in the car quickly gave way to screams, As they passed a road junction(交叉路口), a car crashed into the side of their vehicle, sending their black car sailing into the yard of a nearby home. It only stopped when it crashed into a tree. All of the girls were in panic.
As smoke rose from the car, a bystander(旁观者)shouted, “It’s about to blow up . Get out. ”The impact had bent the driver’s door, meaning it wouldn’t open. The bystander seized the door handle of the car, using all his strength to pull it open, but failed. Shaken, but otherwise OK. Norwood crawled out through the window. She had a cut on the right side of her face. Her lovely face became very pale. Along with two of her friends, who’d also managed to free themselves, she ran for her life.
But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Azarria Simmons, was not with them. Norwood ran back to the car and found Simmons lying in the back seat. “She isn’t moving,” Norwood shouted, with her heart beating hard. She threw open the back door and pulled her friend out, avoiding the broken glass as best she could. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. She checked per pulse. Nothing. She put her head against Simmons’s chest. No sign of life. That’s when she started CPR(心肺复苏术)

7 . The girl on the pink flamingo-shaped raft was floating away quickly, screaming as her father yelled for a lifeguard who didn’t appear. Two brothers who were nearby had expected to spend a relaxing afternoon. Before they could think about it, they were jumping into the sea and swimming toward the girl as fast as they could during a rescue that took almost an hour.
In the cold, sometimes choppy(波涛汹涌的) water, they raced toward the girl in the distance. They had a moment of panic when the girl who was still far away fell off the raft and briefly dipped under the water, then popped back up. They swam for about 25 minutes until they were close enough to yell at her that she would be okay and that they would take her back to the shore.
When they finally reached her, they helped keep her head above water and took turns swimming on their backs with the girl on their chests as they made their way against the current back to shore. Then the brothers took the girl into a beach tent to protect her from the elements(恶劣的天气). Tourists rushed to cover her in layers of towels. As the brothers recovered on the beach after the rescue, they felt the pressure that had built up in their chests slowly fade away. A rescue service crew and paramedics (医护人员) arrived a few minutes later and took the girl to a hospital. She later made a full recovery.
The girl’s family visited the brothers at the house where they were staying to thank them. “It was emotional. It was extremely rewarding once we got to her,” the brothers said. “Seeing her jump around and kiss her mom, that was actually amazing.”

The Littlest Hero
Angela Shymanski was in a hurry to hit the road. It was 8.30 am, the kids were fed and the car was packed with all the necessities for a road trip: a pop-up tent, toys and snacks for five-year-old Lexi, and, for ten-week-old Peter, a pink blanket and seven days' worth of clothes, all of which had been worn. No matter, thought Angela. It was 26 ℃ in central Alberta, the hottest June 8 on record, so her baby would be fine for the eight hours home to Prince George in nappies (纸尿裤)only.
The 28-year-old Canadian had driven these nearly 800 kilometers alone before to visit friends and family. Her husband of eight years, Travis, a worker at an oil factory, couldn't come on the week-long holiday, but Angela, a swimming and first-aid instructor, was eager to show off Peter to her friends.
It was an important trip for Lexi, too. The morning they had left Prince George on June 1, 2015 marked the beginning of the 100-day countdown (倒计时)to kindergarten.
Exactly one year earlier, Lexi received the most important lesson of her young life, preparing for a future emergency. Lexi absorbed every instruction. She knew how to react in an unexpected accident.
As she was driving along the Icefields Parkway, Angela missed her first turnoff (岔道), but decided to continue west on a slightly longer, more scenic route. The lost time would have been insignificant had it not been for a 30-minute stretch of road construction. The stops and starts had begun to bother Peter, who was now screaming in the back-facing car seat next to Lexi's. This calls for a nursery rhyme, Angela thought. She inserted a CD and hoped for the best.
“Zoom, zoom, zoom. We're going to the moon. Zoom, zoom, zoom. We're going to the moon.”
In no time, both children were napping in their car seats. Once out of the construction zone, Angela sped to just below the 100 km/h speed limit along the evergreen-lined road. The warmth of the sun, combined with the calming music, soon began to have a relaxing effect and made her sleepy, so Angela opened the window, hoping the breath of wind would keep her alert. She began searching for a rest stop.
