The Fairy Penguin

Webbed feet

Fairy penguins are the smallest of all the penguins in the world. They live in the south of Australia and in New Zealand.

Fairy penguins weigh (重) about one kilogram. They stand thirty centimeters (厘米) tall. Their back feather (羽毛) are dark blue and their front feathers are white. They have a beak and webbed feet.

Fairy penguins live on the land and in the sea. They are very good swimmers but they cannot fly. They eat small fish.

Fairy penguins breed (繁殖) on land. The mother penguins lay two white eggs in a hole. The mother and father penguins share the job of sitting on the eggs.

When the baby penguins come out, the mother and father penguins bring food from the sea. In eight weeks the baby penguins can have grown feathers. They are soon ready to look for their own food. Fairy penguins are often in danger. Wild animals eat them; people catch them; they have no place to live in. If their numbers become too small, these little penguins might leave our world forever.

Batman, Jubilee, the X-Men—all are superheroes. What makes a superhero? Let’s look at seven things that superheroes share.

1. Nearly all superheroes have super-human powers. For example, Superman can fly, and Wonder Woman can talk with animals.

2. A secret identity（身份）helps protect the superhero’s family and friends. In a few cases friends and family know the superhero’s identity—that Spider-Man is really Peter Parker or that Bruce Banner is actually the Hulk.

3. A colorful costume helps the public make out the superhero, and at the same time it hides his or her identity.

4. All superheroes are honest and own a strong moral code（道德准则）. They respect the law but will break it if doing so will lead to the greater good. Superheroes expect no reward and seldom kill people.

5. There are always enemies who have similar powers for Superheroes to fight against.

6. As a child, Bruce Wayne saw a man kill his parents. He began training hard and later became Batman. The backstory tells how the superhero actually became the superhero we know. Superheroes are seldom born that way.

7. A weakness can make a superhero helpless. This is also what makes him or her interesting. To succeed they must overcome this weakness.

The superhero is perhaps not so different from us. It is the purpose of the story that speaks to us. They tell important truths about human nature. The superhero is a symbol of our hopes and goals. These are what we see in ourselves. And the superhero’s enemies are our own fears, such as crime and war. The superhero often loses but never, ever gives up. This is a lesson we can all learn from. Like us, the superhero is not perfect, but that’s exactly what makes a true hero.
