阅读理解。 Tilly Smith, the 11-year-old British girl, who was called as "Angle of the Beach", saved 100 tourists from
a Thai beach hit by a tsunami in 2004 and had been named Child of the Year (2005) by readers of a French
children's newspaper.
She came ahead of a South African Aids orphan, a six-year-old girl who survived a kidnapping by pedophiles
(有恋童癖的人) and a young Parisian pop singer to win the Mon Quotidien award.
Tilly had studied tsunami with her geography teacher, Andrew Kearney, shortly before flying to Thailand
for a holiday with her parents and younger sister last year.
As she watched the waves suddenly begin to fall back, and the sea was bubbling, she wamed her mother,
Penny, that the beach was about to be struck by a tsunami. Mrs Smith and her husband, Colin, alerted other
holidaymakers and hotel staff and scores of people were cleared from Maikhao beach at Phuket.
Tilly, now 11, and back in Thailand for anniversary commemorations of the disaster, said:"It's re- ally good,
just to know about tsunami or any natural hazard in case you are in one. I'm very glad thatI was able to say on
the beach that a tsunami was coming. And I'm glad that they listened to me."
She had earlier said that the state of the sea, which was "sizzling (发出咝咝声) and bubbling", was "exactly
the same as in my geography lesson."
Tilly read a Thai poem entitled Tsunami at a candle-light vigil to commemorate (纪念)victims of the disaster.
She is unaware of her remarkable (非凡的) popularity among French children. Her picture appears on the
front page of Mon Quotidien, which is read by 10 to 14-year-olds.
"Our readers chose Tilly because they could identify with her," said Francois Dufour, the editor-in-chief.
"To be a pop star at 11 seems impossible, and the idea of having Aids or being kidnapped is remote from their
lives." 1. Tilly Smith was named Child of the Year by _____.A. people from Thailand
