2、It was getting dark. Some children and two Canadian women were still _ _ _ 21 _ _ _ on the ice near a big hotel. They were having a good time.
Suddenly the ice broke. One of the boys fell into the water. The children shouted, “Help! Help!” They didn't know what to so. The two Canadian friends heard _ _ _ 22 _ _ _ and skated over to get the boy out of the water.
The ice was thin. The two Canadians fell into the water, too. But they tried their best to _ _ _ 23 _ _ _ the little boy. They knew they must be quick. If they didn't push him up onto the ice, he would soon die.
Many people ran over to help.Some of them had ropes and poles. A young man jumped into the water to save the _ _ _ 24 _ _ _ people.
The boy and the two Canadian women were out of water at last. One of the women didn't feel well. She was sent to the _ _ _ 25 _ _ _ at once. But she felt very happy because the boy was safe.
