Like many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.

Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics (特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them.

A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a special story to tell and people think highly of it. But a hero is not just the person with great fame (声誉) .

A hero has powers (力量) larger than himself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes.

A hero has a vision from the mountaintop. He has the power to move people. He creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colors of their skin.

There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.

During my second month of the nursing school, our teacher gave us a test. I was a hard-working student and I did well in all the subjects. I finished the questions successfully and easily until I read the last one. What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?

What a surprising question! I saw the cleaning woman almost every day .She was short, about 60 years old and had black hair, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question empty, so did my classmates.

Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would influence (影响)our test grade.

"Of course," said the teacher."In your life, you will meet many people. All people are important and all jobs are important. They deserve(值得)your attention and care,even if all that you do is to smile and say hello to them."

I've never forgotten that lesson. In fact, that was the most important lesson in my life. I also learned her name was Dorothy.

Using social media(社交媒体)to post photos is pretty new. Facebook did not start until 2004. Instagram started in 2010. It was not until 2013 that the Oxford English language dictionary added the term“selfie”. The meaning of“selfie is“a photograph that one has taken of oneself.”

Why do people take“selfies”? Researchers at Syracuse University in New York tried to answer that question. They came up with some surprising answers.

People who post selfies and use editing softwares to make themselves look better show behaviors connected to narcissism(自恋), the Syracuse researchers said. Narcissists are people who think very highly of themselves, especially how they look.

Ji Won Kim, who worked on the study, said social media can be superficial. By superficial, she means social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives -not deeply personal issues.

_____________. People who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the Syracuse University research found.

Other findings from the study include: There are no main differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing softwares like Meitu. But men who post selfies show more of a need than women who post selfies.

Another researcher Makana Chock also worked on the study. She said selfies should not be seen as completely negative. She said some people feel “peer pressure”(同伴压力)to post selfies. And some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen.

1.The underlined word “superficial” in Paragraph 4 means “_______” in Chinese.

A. 草率的 B. 表面的 C. 重要的 D. 积极的

2.According to Makana Chock, people post selfies to __________.

A. think highly of themselves B. show a need for popularity

C. give others pressure D. tell others it really happened

3.Which of the following is the best for the blank in Paragraph 5?

A. We need to communicate with others by posting selfies

B. People also post selfies to share feelings with friends

C. There are other reasons why people post selfies

D. Posting selfies is really necessary in our daily life

4.If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

(①=Para.1;  ②=Para.2;  ③=Para.3;  ④=Para.4; …)

A. ①②;③④;⑤⑥⑦ B. ①;②③④⑤;⑥⑦
