ENG211:Twelve-Year-Old Awarded Medal for Bravery

A twelve-year-old boy was awarded for bravery in a prize-giving ceremony at Ulaanbaatar Palace day before yesterday. The award was given to Bold by mayor of Ulaanbaatar, Munkhbayar.

The decision came after he saved his younger sister and younger brother on a fire last month. Bold risked his own life to go outside his younger sister and younger brother who are three and five years old, were sleeping at home without taking care of them, while fire was getting worse and worse. He called for engine and his parents on mobile. There was not much time to save them. So he decided to go into the house and get them. It was difficult to him. But he could do it. When the firefighters arrived, he, his younger sister, and younger brother were very well with little scary.

The prize-giving ceremony started at 12:00 day before yesterday morning with a speech from the mayor, who congratulated Bold and awarded him with the medal of bravery and big money. This was followed by an informal lunch in the Royal House Restaurant. The event was attended by city dwellers, reporters, and his family.
His younger sister and younger brother are now very well. But Bold was little injured. They don’t know what a bravery brother they have. Their father commented that he was delighted his son’s bravery had been recognized, saying that he will tell about that story when his younger sister and younger brother are grown. Mayor Munkhbayar pointed out, “At that time people like Bold are rare. He is an example to us. We are all proud of him.”
