贵阳最美女孩：90后少女寒夜跳河救人

The local government plans to reward a teenage girl, who saved an 11-year-old boy from drowning in a river in Southwest China’s Guizhou province’s capital city, despite the weather slumping to zero on Tuesday night.

贵州省贵阳市政府打算公开表彰不顾寒夜河水冰冷而勇救11岁落水少年的90后少女。

Xiang Xinyuan, took a walk with her pet dog along the Nanming river around 8 pm that night as usual, making a break from her heavy homework. The 16-year-old was a senior high school student, preparing for the university entrance examination in June. Xiang was enjoying a relaxing moment until she saw a round-faced boy shouting for help with his hands waving desperately in the air.

16岁的高三学生向欣园向往常一样，晚上八点带着自己的爱狗沿河边散步以缓解备战高考的压力。就在这时，她发现一个圆脸的小男孩落水，并在河水中挣扎呼喊救命。

Xiang told China Daily on Friday that she did not think much before she jumped into the water."The river water was freezing but it also helped me to calm down and try to remember some life-saving techniques from TV programs I watched," said Xiang. She tried her best to swim towards the boy who was struggling in the water and asked him to calm down. After reaching him, Xiang lifted the boy’s head and swam back. "When approaching the bank, I felt my body start to sink as I did not have time to remove some of my clothes and shoes at the start," Xiang recalled.
