Like many of my generation. I have a weakness for hero worship.
At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This lead us to ask: What is a hero
Despite immense differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen.
But a hero goes beyond mere fame.
Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves.
Like high-voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.
The hero lives a life worthy of imitation.
Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning.
A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom do they serve
What arc they willing to live and die for If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame.
they may be famous persons but not heroes.
Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their tans find life more abundant
Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change.
They have a vision from the mounlaintop.
They have the skill and the charm to move the masses.
They create new possibilites.
Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire.
Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks.
It may be possible for large-scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.

Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence (本质) of sports-seeking for personal excellence.
Children kick a football around for fun.
When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing.
A single person's representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation's hopes, dreams and fame.
A good example is the football World Cup.
Football is the world's most important sport.
It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up.
Winning the World Cup is perhaps the greatest of international sporting success. Mention" Argentina" to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football.
In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational (非理性的) about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966.
Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even-their houses and spent all their money travelling to Argentina where the finals were played.
So I'm arguing that international competition kills the idea of sports Certainly not. Do the Argentinas really believe that because eleven of their-men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others
Not really.
But it' s known that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.
1. Which is the writer's main purpose in the passage
A.To explain the role of sport.
B.To compare Scotland with Argentina.
C.To show that Argentina is better than all others.
D.To prove that football is the world's most important event.
2. According to the passage, it a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will______.
A.be irrational
B.be successful
C.fail to succeed
D.lose enjoyment
3. What is the writer's altitude towards international games
A.Nations that meet on football are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.
B.Nations that win in international games prove best on the sports field at least.
C.Nations that win the football World Cup are considered best in all ways.
D.Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.

A WISE MAN
He was a funny looking man with a cheerful face, good natured and a great talker.
He was described by his student, the great philosopher Plato, as "the best and most just and wisest man."
Yet, this same man was condemned to death for his belief.
The man was the Greek philosopher, Socrates, and he was condemned for not believing in the recognized gods and for corrupting young people.
The second charge stemmed from his association with numerous young men who came to Athens from all over the civilized world to study tinder him.
Socrates method of teaching was to ask questions and, by pretending not to know the an swers, to press his students into thinking for themselves.
His teaching had unsurpassed influence on all the great Greek and Roman schools of philosohy.
Yet, for all his fame and influence, Socrates himself never wrote a word.
Socrates encouraged new ideas and free thinking in the young, and this was frightening to the conservative people.
They wanted him silenced.
Yes, many were probably surprised that he accepted death so readily.
Socrates had the right to ask for lesser (较小的) penalty, and lie probably could have won over enough of the people to submit to the death sentence.
So, he calmly accepted his fate and drank a cup of poison hemlock in the presence of his grief-stricken friends and students.

A.believed in law
B.was a philosopher
C.published outspoken philosophical articles

One of the largest counties in Texas is named for Captain Erastus "Deaf" Smith, a deaf man.
Captain Smith was the leader of General Sam Houston's scouts during the Texas Revolution, the war in which Texas won its freedom from Mexico.
The county named in his honor is called Deaf Smith county.
A scout in the days of the Texas Revolution was much like what a spy is today. Captain" Deaf' Smith would find out where enemy troops were camped and how many men the enemy had, and he would report to Sam Houston.
Even when other people could not see or hear any sign of people or animals, Captain Smith would know where they were.
Sometimes he would guide Texas troops through enemy territory(地域) without the enemy even knowing they were there.
Erastus Smith was born in New York on April 19,1787, but went to live in Mississippi when he was 11 years old.
He went to Texas for a short time in 1817, and four years later returned to Texas to stay. He wandered over Texas as a surveyor(测量员) before he volunteered (自愿)tor army service after the start of the Texas Revolution.
Smith married a Mexican woman, and they had four children-three girls and one boy. He spent a lot of time learning the customs, manners, and language of the Mexican settlers.
When the Texas Revolution began in 1835, Smith at first refused to lake part in it out of respect for his family's heritage(传统).
However, after Mexican troops tried to stop him from going to San Antonio to visit his family, he volunteered for service with the Texans. He was made a captain.

Just as some people think that certain numbers are lucky or unlucky, others believe that we can use numbers to understand our personalities, or predict what will happen to us in the future.
Numerology is a way of using numbers to describe a person's character, and to make predictions about future life events.
Numerologists use the numbers 1to 9, 11 and 22 also known as the "master" numbers-to help a person understand his or her personality , life goals, and destiny (命运).
Numerologists consider your Life Path number to be the most important because this number describes your character. To find this number, add together all the numbers in your date of birth.
For example, a person born on April 25.1985 would add the month(4), to the numbers of the date (2+5) .plus the numbers of the birth year (1+9+8+5).
It the final number is a double figure, it is added again until a number between 1 and 9,11 or 22 is reached.
In this case the total is 34, so this person's Life Path number is 7(3+3).
Numerologists believe that people with this number are peaceful, tender and loving people who can also be very reserved (内向的).
Your Expression number describes your talents(才能) and predicts how you should use these to fulfill your destiny in life.
Numerologists give a number between 1 and 9 to each of tile loiters in your name. These numbers arc then added together in the same way as before to find your Expression number.
Numerologists can also do calculations(计算) to predict when the most challenging periods of your life will be.
Numerologists also believe that the day a person is born is important.
Each day of the month has a character description.
People born on the fourth are said to be responsible, honest, and stubborn(固执的).
People born on the fifteenth have very strong attachments(依恋) to family and home.
Those who celebrate their birthday on the thirtieth are artistic, creative, and imaginative, and often make good writers.
64. According to the passage, a person born on May 1, 1984 would have a Life Path number of___.
A.1 B.8 C.10 D.28
65. To understand your abilities and how to use them in your life, you should calculate your___.
A.Life Path number B.Expression number
C.birthday D.age
66. According to Numerology, many great writers were born on the__.
