today i did a thing that was well worth doing although i was misunderstood at the beginning.

　　this morning on my way to school, i was riding when i heard a call for help. a girl fell into the river! i got off my bike, took off my clothes and jumped into the river. after a few minutes' struggle, i finally saved the girl, i informed the girl's parents and then hurried to school. but i was still late for class. not knowing the reason, the teacher criticized me.

　　in the afternoon, the girl's parents came to my school and thanked me for having saved their daughter. after the teacher learned the whole thing,he made an apology to me. and the headmaster praised me and also called on all the students to learn from me. i felt very proud.
