Ⅰ.CAREFUL READING
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 leads us to ask: What is a hero?
Despite immen differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.京东积分变成京豆
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 rve powers or principles larger than themlves. Like high—voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be ud by ordinary people.
The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Tho 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 rve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they rve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant?
Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the charm to move the mass. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., we might still have gregated (实行种族隔离的) bus, 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 **mittee meetings endless.

Ⅱ.DISCOURSE CLOZE
爸爸妈妈的寄语
We obrve today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom—symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning—signifying renewal, as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three quarters ago.
The world is very different now. 1 . And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe—the belief that the rights of **e not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been pasd to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage— 2 .
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppo any foe, 3 .
听风者电影 This much we pledge—and more.
To tho old allies who cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. 4 . Divided, there is little we can do—for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.
To tho new States whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial control shall not have pasd away merely to be replaced by a far greater iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view. But
we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom—and to remember that, 5 .
