    It’s generally agreed that heroes are great and always admired by common people. However, most of us have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.

Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics (特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them. A hero does something worth talking about. A hero usually put others before and does his/her best to help people in need. A hero has a special story to tell and is thought highly of by people.

But a hero is not just the person with great fame (名声). A hero has powers larger than himself/herself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes.

A hero has a vision (视野) from the mountaintop. He/She has the power to move people. He/She creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colors of their skin.

There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.

1.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A.How to be a hero. B.What a hero is like.

C.The fame of a hero. D.The lifestyle of a hero.

2.What is a sure test for people who want to be heroes?

A.What or whom they serve. B.Money they make in all.

C.Experience they get for life. D.How or when to serve others.

3.Why did Americans take different buses before Martin Luther King, Jr.?

A.Because they liked different buses.

B.Because of the rules of bus companies.

C.Because of the different colors of their skin.

D.Because they made different amount of money.

4.What can we learn from the text?

A.We don’t need heroes any more.

B.People living just for fame can be heroes.

C.Heroes make the society develop slowly.

D.Heroes are able to create new possibilities.

 

1.B 2.A 3.C 4.D 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文。每个时代都有英雄,英雄能给我们勇气和力量,为我们树立了学习的榜样。文章分析了什么样的人能被称为英雄,检测英雄的标准及英雄们对社会的贡献。 1. 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics (特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them.(虽然在文化上有很多不同,但是世界各地的英雄通常都有一些共同的特点,这些特点给了我们勇气,让我们想要向他们学习)及对英雄的具体表现的介绍可知,本段主要讲的是什么样的人能被称为英雄。故选B。 2. 细节推理题。根据第三段中的A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve.可知,对那些想成为英雄的人来说,一个确定的考验就是他们为谁或为什么服务。由此可知,看一个人是为谁和为什么服务的是检验英雄的有效测试内容。故选A。 3. 细节推理题。根据第四段中的Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colors of their skin.可知,由于他们的肤色不同,美国人可能会乘坐不同的公交车,在不同的餐馆吃饭,在不同的公园散步,在不同的商店购物。由此可知,在马丁路德金之前人们坐不同的公交车是因为肤色不同,种族歧视。故选C。 4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段A hero has a vision (视野) from the mountaintop. He/She has the power to move people. He/She creates new possibilities.可知, 英雄有站在山顶的远见。他/她有感动人的力量。他/她创造新的可能性。由此可知,英雄们有宽阔的视野,有感动人的力量,能创造新的可能。故选D。

Dear Yang Hui,

I’ve heard you’ll have a two-weeks summer holiday and have decided to visit as much new places as possible. I don’t think it’s a good idea. My friend Li Hua goes to Europe last July. He visited four countries, and stayed for only three days in each of the country. He was always in hurry. Li Hua was neither on a train or a bus almost every day. When he returned back from Europe, he was very tiring. So I suggest that he travel to one country and visit only one city. Choose a city on the coast, or you’ll be able to have a good rest at the seaside.

Best wishes!

Yours,

Wang Feng
