17、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 immense differences in cultures，heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and insp

18、ire 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(電壓)transformers，heroes take the energy of higher powers and step

19、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 are they willing to live and die for? If the answer

20、 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 fans find life more abundant? Heroes are catalysts (催化劑)for change.They have a vision from the mountain top.They have the skill and th

21、e charm to move the masses.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 segregated(隔離的)buses，restaurants，and parks.It may be possible for large-scale change to occur without leaders with

29、 from the normally silly smile I see. Wednesday morning my curiosity finally got me to ask him why. He told me that he was going to ride his new 3-wheeled bike when he got home. He couldn't control his happiness. When he got off, he gave me a smile. A smile will forever be in my heart. The next m

30、orning, I noticed that his eyes were quite puffy (浮腫的). So were his mother's. I asked them why. She explained that was due to many hours of tears the night before. She said that Tyrell got to ride the bike once before he had to come in for dinner and was promised he could ride it again afterward. He

31、 left it in the back yard where they thought it would be safe. However, after dinner, the bike was nowhere to be found. They immediately broke into tears because they knew the thing that he treasured so much was stolen. She called her close friend to find some comfort. The friend called her up lat

32、er and said that she forgot to tell Tyrell's mom that she had something for them and asked if it would be OK to bring it over. She, of course, was still crying from the thought that another bike would be impossible to afford and said yes. The friend brought over a huge box, in which there was a bran

36、ain happiness from helping others C Going to college has been such a new experience for me. Everything is different from when I was in high school. One thing I've noticed is that I haven't been focusing on my coursework like I planned. I thought I would spend most of my college life studying.

37、But since I've been in college, about 60 percent of my time has been devoted to social life, while only 40 percent of my time has been devoted to my studies. I never knew I would make so many friends in such a short time. It's been so overwhelming (無法抵抗的)! I'm not saying that making friends is bad,

38、 but I'm starting to realize how much socializing has cut down on the time I? should have spent on studying. Needless to say, that has to be changed. I've realized that I really don't want to spend an extra year or two here just because I slacked off as a freshman. So the first thing I'm going t

39、o do is to cut down on the amount of time I spend socializing. I will also have to say goodbye to a good part of the activities I like to attend. It's really difficult to cut these things out of my life, but I have to choose: I can have a full-time social life and fail college, or I can learn to b

40、alance my time between friends and studying and keep good grades. I think I'll stick to that second option!

44、studying time D After a couple has had their first child, to their disappointment they became infertile and couldn't have more children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children,

45、 and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have children because they are infertile. Cloning would allow these couples to have children. It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it

46、 is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or not. The following are some of the reasons why cloning should be allowed. Through cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal c

47、ord injuries, cancer, and many more. Cloning organs for organ transplants (移植) is one of the major practical reasons that cloning should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an org

48、an to replace a faulty organ. Rejuvenation (恢復青春) is also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of cloning. Some scientists believe that injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growi

54、ys the three-bedroom hotel's joined up pod structure, which makes it look like a model of molecules, was based on the fact that each pod room had to fit inside a rocket to be taken into space. “It's the bathrooms in zero gravity that are the biggest challenge,” says Claramunt. “How to provide enoug

When guests are not admiring the view from the windows of their pod rooms'， t

56、hey will take part in scientific experiments on space travel. “There is fear associated with going into space,” said Claramunt. “That's why the shuttle rocket will remain fixed to the space hotel for the duration of the guests' stay, so they know they can get home again.” “But,” says Claramunt, “I
