When I was eight years old, one day, my father took my brother and me on a picnic beside a river. (18) When we arrived there, my father told us the river was very dangerous. He made us promise not to walk up to it. But I was too curious about it. I thought there must be kinds of fish in the river. So I did not keep my promise. I walked into the river and saw many fish. When I wanted to catch a fish, I fell down. (17) Because the river was very deep, I could not stand and touch the bottom. I cried out loudly, but nobody was there, except my brother Danny. My father had gone to search for some wood. Danny was very scared. He didn’t know what he could do, because he was two years younger than me.

He saved us before our father came back. (20)
