About a mile behind our Minnesota farm lay a pond in a stand of oak trees. In

summer, it would be covered by a green and bubbly scum（浮渣）with an unpleasant smell. We

stayed away.

When winter came, the pond was once again an inviting place. One day when ice

covered it, Harry said to me, “Try walking across.” The ice looked solid. No water showed

through it, but I hesitated. “You’re lighter than I am.” Harry urged. “If the ice holds, we can

slide carefully on it. It’ll be fun.” I wanted to please him, and I thought about the fun of a long

slide on the ice. I began to slide across the pond.

However, In the middle of the pond, the ice gave way with a sudden crack! The next

thing I knew I was hanging on to the edge of a hole in the icy water. I thought of the bottom of

the pond. I knew it would be black and awful down there, full of mud and maybe rotting

creatures.

I tried to climb out, but when I got a knee on the ice, it broke like glass. Again and

again, I tried. Again and again the ice broke into pieces. The hole widened. As my coat became

completely wet, it dragged me down. I was tired of the struggle and rested with my arms

stretched out on the ice.

I looked at Harry on shore, who seemed rooted to the spot. “I can’t get out!” I

screamed when I caught some breath. Seeing him turned and ran from the pond, despair and

scare beat me out of breath. After what seemed to be centuries of fruitless waiting, I was on the

verge of breaking down.

Just at that moment, here dashed Harry with a large V-shaped oak branch.

The moment I crashed through the kitchen door, sobbing, mum rushed over.

Just at that moment, here dashed Harry with a large V-shaped oak branch. Flopping to his

stomach(扑倒在地), he pushed the branch before him and wriggled(蠕动) toward me. The

moment a slim top branch was within reach, I grabbed it immediately. “Keep flat on your

stomach(展平趴好)!” He shouted and I did as told. Inch by inch, I was dragged out of the icy

water by Harry. What a narrow escape! The next 20 minutes witnessed us stumbling( 跌 跌 撞

撞 ) our way home, with my clothes dripping (滴着水) and my shoes squishing(发出吧唧声) .

The moment I crashed through the kitchen door, sobbing, mum rushed over. Having

unbuttoned(解 开纽扣) my coat, she gave me a quick bath and then wrapped a thick blanket

over me to stop my teeth-chattering chill(牙齿打颤的冷); meanwhile I was served a cup of hot

chocolate to warm up. I tearfully(泪眼婆娑地) complained about what had happened, and Harry

was scolded for getting his younger brother into such danger. His head drooping(低垂着), Harry

murmured(嘟囔着) an apology to me. When winter came the next year, the pond looked all

inviting again, but we learned our lesson and stayed away this time.
