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 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 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 are 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 fans find life more abundant?
Heroes are catalysts (催化劑) for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the 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 magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.
【小題1】Although heroes may come from different cultures, they __________.

A.generally possess certain inspiring characteristics
B.probably share some weaknesses of ordinary people
C.a(chǎn)re often influenced by previous generations
D.a(chǎn)ll unknowingly attract a large number of fans
【小題2】 According to the passage, heroes are compared to high-voltage transformers in that _______.
A.they have a vision from the mountaintop
B.they have warm feelings and emotions
C.they can serve as concrete examples of noble principles
D.they can make people feel stronger and more confident
【小題3】Madonna and Michael Jackson are not considered heroes because __________.
A.they are popular only among certain groups of people
B.their performances do not improve their fans morally
C.their primary concern is their own financial interests
D.they are not clear about the principles they should follow
【小題4】The author concludes that historical changes would __________.
A.be delayed without leaders with inspiring personal qualities
B.not happen without heroes making the necessary sacrifices
C.take place if there were heroes to lead the people
D.produce leaders with attractive personalities

       Every country has its heroes. The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential(潛勢)of that nation.
If today in America, you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choice would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars —the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model (推舉…為榜樣). The rock stars too often are involved with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.
A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area — SPORTS. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of a mess. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.
A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model for young people.
Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher, or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.
What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American youngsters are only rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.
56. The hero discussed in this article means a person ______.
A. who has done something brave          B. who plays an important role in a play
C. whom people greatly admire            D. who rides the waves and moves with the tides
57. What is true of the groups mentioned in this article?
A. They are not fright but are good-looking.       B. They are rich but are strict with themselves.
C. They are talented in some area but lead an indecent life.   D. They are perfect in every way.
58. American young people will not admire ______.
A. a university professor           B. a popular singer     C. a football player     D. a film actress
59. According to the writer, people should hold up as their model those______.
A. who are rich and wear the latest fashion clothes     B. whose personal life is good
C. who can express people’s feelings             D. who work in the interests (利益) of the people
60. What is the writer’s attitude towards American youth’s admiration for their heroes?
A. He is understanding.      B. He is critical.     C. He is angry.        D. He is uninterested.
