2、im down.1. Yes, I think Wesley Austrey is a real hero because he showed unusual courage in times of danger.

3、ittle children to take care of. What would his kids do if he died!2. I am most impressed by Wesley talking about his own fear and what he said to the stranger. From the report we can tell that Wesley loved his children and that he was fully aware of the danger he was facing. This further shows how c

4、aring and how courageous he was.I am most impressed when Wesley said, I dont feel like I did something extraordinary; I just saw someone who needed help. This shows that Wesley is a warm-hearted and courageous person. When it is time for him to offer help, he just extends his hand. This is why when

5、a stranger slipped off the platform, Wesley immediately jumped onto the tracks to save him, regardless of the extreme danger involved.3. I doubt if I would be courageous enough to jump onto the tracks to save the man.I would probably shout at the man, telling him to stay between the rails, lower his

6、 body, and keep his head down. And then I would ask the subway staff for help.Reference:1 .Today both victims and survivors of all kinds of difficulties and tragedies are described as heroes.2 .Because during a mass shooting in Tucson, Daniel Hernandez courageously ran through the danger to save one

7、 of the victims.3 .The priest meant that Dory was a hero not just because he gave his life for his wife, but also because he had been known for his remarkable spirit and love of humanity when he was alive.4 .First responders are people, such as police officers and firefighters, whose job is to rush

8、toward danger. They are supposed to be the first to arrive at the scene of accidents and deal with emergencies.5.In the past, heroes were those who acted courageously beyond the call of duty or great leaders, while todays heroes can be average men and women.6 .Eleanor McMahon considered many police

9、officers to be heroes because they rush toward danger to help those in need, against the human instinct to rush toward safety and away from danger.7 .The inspiring stories of heroes help remind us that ordinary people can do extraordinary things, whether it is to fulfill their duties, or as part of

10、everyday life.8 .We honor heroes by recognizing their heroism and, more importantly, by working to change the circumstances that led to their death.Reference:1 .

Yes, people who give their lives for others should certainly be considered heroes, no matter whom they savewhether it is a family member or a stranger. By rescuingothers, they demonstrate extraordinary courage and the rare qualities of a he

12、ro.3 .Yes, I agree that Heroism is latent in every human soul. I think everyone, kids or adults, men or women, wants to be a hero. Some want to be a hero because they want to be respected or loved by others; they would like to gain fame or attention. Some want to be a hero because they want to feel

13、powerful for themselves. Still some others want to be a hero just because they want to help those in need, even by sacrificing their own interest, health or lives. No matter what motivates the hero, it is a glorious feeling when others look up to you as a hero.4 .Yes, I think they should be regarded

14、 as heroes even though their efforts fail. They are heroes because they are brave and ready to sacrifice themselves for others. Their act and sacrifice will set a good example for other people, no matter whether their efforts have brought about desirable results or not. The most important thing is t

15、hat they have tried while many other people would have neither the intention nor the courage to have a try.5.It is heroes who protect us from danger, and give us strength, comfort and confidence.

34、 these people become heroes because of what happens to them as they try to help others -instead of what they actually make happen (Para. 9) 2. Example:Ms. McMahon was the founder of a cycling association. Her husband was a police officer who was killed in an off-duty bicycling accident. Ms. McMahon

35、thought that Sgt. Russell was indeed a hero because he showed distinct courage when trying hard in a heavy snowstorm to stop the snowplow before it hurt others. She summed up that its natural for most people to rush toward safety and away from danger. Heroes, however, rush toward danger to help thos

36、e in need. (Paras. 10-11) 3. Conclusion:We expect first responders to rush forward in times of danger. So when they die doing that, we should recognize their heroic action even though we ourselves may not be that brave. (Para. 12)Reference:Where does happiness come from Ann was a fulltime worker wit

37、h a low income, but she devoted a lot of her time to helping people in her community. One day, Ann was diagnosed with a severe heart disease, but she did not have enough money for treatment. When people in her community heard the news, they raised money for her and helped take care of her children.

38、Although Ann was very sick, she felt very happy. She had enjoyed helping other people, who now in turn were happy to help her. Happiness is indeed the result of helping each other.1.November.1.1 n the Dalton River.3. Jonda.4. Sandy.1 .Why did Jondas pulse quicken while she was drivingA.Because the w

39、eather was terrible.B.Because the car ahead was in trouble.C.Because the car ahead was blocking her view.D.Because the road was dangerous with many bends.2 .Why did Jonda fail to save the teenager many years agoA.Because she was too terrified to take any action.B.Because she was pulled back by some

45、dy is forever grateful to her.C.Because Sandy has become her close friend.D.Because she got rid of the guilty feeling by helping Sandy.Reference:1 .No, I dont think so. Although it is the duty of police officers to save victims in accidents, they should not be blamed for failing to save the victims

46、on some occasions. It would be unfair to blame them as situations may become out of their control. Sometimes they themselves may get injured or even die in their efforts to save those in danger. So in this sense, they may fail to save victims, but they are still heroes and are respectable.2 .Helping

47、 others surely has its benefits. When we help others, we can derive a feeling of happiness and a sense of fulf川ment. We will earn respect from other people. Besides, by helping others, we set an example for others who, in turn, will help even more people. If we extend a helping hand whenever necessa

48、ry, we will help build a more friendly and harmonious world.3.I think it depends on the situation. If you know your sacrifice will save another persons life, it is undoubtedly worthwhile even if you have to risk your own life. Nonetheless, if you clearly know that your efforts wont save them even at

49、 the cost of your own life, then it is not a good idea to give up your own life. Maybe a better and more practical way is to ask more people for help. This way, you will not only save the victim, but also avoid unnecessary casualties.1.A heavy flood caused the bridge to(collapse);now, no one can cro
