A brave 10-year-old American girl is considered a hero because she got back into the dangerous waters to save her 6-year-old friend after being attacked by a shark.
On August 19, Kaley Szarmack was badly bitten in the leg by a shark when she was enjoying herself in the shallow(浅的) waters at a beach. Kaley felt great pain and she turned around, seeing a 3-foot-long shark. She rushed out of the water and shouted to her friend nearby to run quickly. But that younger girl did not hear her. So Kaley took a risk to go back and took her out of water.
Kaley Szarmack was taken to the hospital and she received 90 stitches(针). Now she is slowly recovering. She’ll be able to run, jump, swim and surf again soon.
“I’m just so proud of her and so thankful that she is doing well,” Kaley’s father said. “She’s going to have a pretty big scar in her leg. She’ll have quite a story to tell, though.”
The proud father, who happens to be a fireman, said it was difficult to see his daughter in so such pain.
“You see all kinds of things as a fireman, but when you see your baby, even if it was a little blood, it was really difficult to see. It was just tough(艰难的). That’s my little girl, ” he said.
