What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word”hero”? 1 There are onscreen heroes like the superheroes in Avengers(復仇者),and also everyday heroes in our lives.

Whether they’re championship athletes, groundbreaking(開創(chuàng)性的)scientists, programmers changing the world with a keyboard, firefighters rushing into the burning building, artists creating the works of amazement, or a dog with a baby by his side, “hero” can be the word to describe them.

2

In general, a hero is someone selfless, courageous and brave. These qualities drive heroes to help others in times of need, even if they are scared. You can count on them to be there for you if something bad happens.

“The people that we set up as heroes are people that generally go above and beyond the call of duty.3” Nick Carden, a psychologist at the AAPHC Renaissance Center in the US said so.

However, why can some people be heroic? Nick Carden said, heroes are made. “They probably are people that have been influenced by and have been helped by or have been modeled or raised to have those as values.”

Common people—just like you and me—are heroes in their own way, simply just by doing their part for their families and communities. Cleaners, doctors, reporters, delivery workers, nurses, and bus drivers—the list goes on and on.4 And, sometimes, when there are emergencies, these common people show courage and bravery to help complete strangers in need.

Being a hero is the nature of human beings. “The decision to act heroically is a choice that mans or us will be called upon to make at some point in time. Heroism becomes something that seems in the range(范圍)of possibilities for every person, perhaps inspiring more of us to answer that call.” heroism researchers Zeno Franco and Philip Zimbardo wrote in Great Good Magazine.5 Be courageous, honest, and a person with integrity(正直). Because, once you are your own hero, you can truly do anything you set your mind to.

A.These common people help keep order in our day-to-day lives.

B.Is it someone who wears a cape(披風)and can fly in the air?

C.Only in this way, you can be your own hero.

D.Most importantly, you should make an effort to be your own hero.

E.They do things that are outstanding.

F.But what makes a person a hero?

【題目】 Giving and receiving make us a happier life. Yet, why do we have such difficulty getting 1 in our life?

For example, my husband and I have family members 2 only visit us when they need our help, but we rarely receive a "thank you". Most people would say that we are being used. But when we give, we shouldn't be giving for 3 . Rather, we should give because it's the good thing to do. Everything that we have is a gift 4 the world. In return, the world asks us to use these gifts to 5 others. The good news is that when we live our lives being nice to others, our lives run more smoothly.

At the same time, we should remember to receive gratefully. I truly believe that you cannot say "thank you" 6. Sometimes children are lazy to say "thank you" to their parents and 7 forget to say "thank you" to their teachers. We know they are willing to give, but it doesn't mean that we shouldn't thank them 8 it. Words of appreciation (感謝) make others feel good. It's 9 for us to say "thank you" because we need to remind ourselves of how lucky we are. And hearing those two words can make us feel great for days. 10 you are looking for a secret to improve your life, I can give you the answer: Give generously (慷慨地) and receive gratefully.

【題目】 On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path(小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”

Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides(隱匿處) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, there are many hides around lakes, too. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade(蔭處) out of the wind and rain.

Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazine and newspapers. But only 5 percent of the photos you took may be good. It is not easy to take a good wildlife photo if you don’t have any good plans beforehand.

1Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?

___________________________________

2Why didn’t Leila get close to the elephants she wanted to take photos of?

___________________________________

3How can photographers take good wildlife photos according to the passage?

【題目】 Most people need to hear those “three little words” -- I love you. Sometimes they hear them just in time.

I met Connie in the hospital where I worked as a volunteer. Although Connie was in the final stages of her fight against cancer(癌癥), she was cheerful. I asked if she needed anything. “Oh, yes,” she said, “would you please show me how to use the TV? I enjoy the soaps.” Connie was a romantic. She loved soap operas, and movies with a good love story. As we became familiar, she said how annoyed it was to be married 32 years to a man who often called her “a silly woman.”

  “I know Bill loves me,” She said, “but he has never been one to say he loves me. I’d give anything if he’d say ‘I love you,’ but it’s just not in his nature.

  Bill visited Connie every day. In the beginning, he sat next to the bed while she watched the soaps. Soon, when she no longer watched television and had fewer waking moments, I began spending more of my volunteer time with Bill, who was a carpenter and made furniture. He and Connie had no children, but they’d been enjoying retirement by travelling, until Connie got sick.

One day, over coffee I got him on the subject of women and how we need romance in our lives; how we love to get cards and love letters.

  “Do you tell Connie you love her?” I asked, and he looked at me as if I was crazy.

  “I don't have to,” he said, “She knows I do!”

  “I'm sure she knows,” I said, “but she needs to hear what she has meant to you all the years.”

  Two days later, I saw Bill leaning up against the wall in the hallway and staring at the floor. The head nurse told me Connie had died at 11 a.m..When Bill saw me, his face was wet with tears. Finally, he took a deep breath. “I have to say how good I feel about telling her.” He stopped to blow his nose. “I thought a lot about what you said, and this morning I told her how much I loved her…and loved being married to her. You should have seen her smile!”

I went into the room to say my own good-bye to Connie. There, on the bedside table, was a large Valentine card from Bill. “To my wonderful wife…I love you!”
