What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word”hero”? 1. There are onscreen heroes like the superheroes in Avengers(复仇者),and also everyday heroes in our lives.

Whether they’re championship athletes, groundbreaking(开创性的)scientists, programmers changing the world with a keyboard, firefighters rushing into the burning building, artists creating the works of amazement, or a dog with a baby by his side, “hero” can be the word to describe them.

In general, a hero is someone selfless, courageous and brave. These qualities drive heroes to help others in times of need, even if they are scared. You can count on them to be there for you if something bad happens.

“The people that we set up as heroes are people that generally go above and beyond the call of duty.3.” Nick Carden, a psychologist at the AAPHC Renaissance Center in the US said so.

Common people—just like you and me—are heroes in their own way, simply just by doing their part for their families and communities. Cleaners, doctors, reporters, delivery workers, nurses, and bus drivers—the list goes on and on.4. And, sometimes, when there are emergencies, these common people show courage and bravery to help complete strangers in need.

Being a hero is the nature of human beings. “The decision to act heroically is a choice that mans or us will be called upon to make at some point in time. Heroism becomes something that seems in the range(范围)of possibilities for every person, perhaps inspiring more of us to answer that call.” heroism researchers Zeno Franco and Philip Zimbardo wrote in Great Good Magazine.5. Be courageous, honest, and a person with integrity(正直). Because, once you are your own hero, you can truly do anything you set your mind to.

C.Only in this way, you can be your own hero.

D.Most importantly, you should make an effort to be your own hero.

Living in small communities, we know just about everyone.We greet the postal workers by name when they drop off the daily mail with a smile. Our child’s teacher is likely someone we went to school with if we grew up in the area, and we can usually count on seeing familiar faces at every community event.Each and every interaction forms the tight-knit weave(编织)of a community that shares so much, built from hundreds of small moments that happen every day.

People all have their reasons for choosing to live in such a community, but they usually agree on one thing when they come together-they are grateful to be here. People say that the key ingredient to a strong community is taking part in every event of the community actively. That is really true-a community is no community at all without real relationship, and those bonds can only be built through engagement(参与).

As a part of a strong community, everyone is an important part in a group of people who want to help each other succeed and celebrate each success, as well as helping each other through challenges and sorrow. It’s important for every person to bring an only but special gift to the community. You should feel thankful if you ever found a community where the neighbors know and look out for one another because these days, many communities are built on “commuter relationships”.

Having moved well over a dozen times, the healthiest, strongest communities are the ones that welcome visitors and are willing to share their stories. The sharing contains so much from the stories that shaped the community today through their art, music, volunteerism, festivals and fundraisers(募集活动). One may be thankful on a daily basis to live and work in a community that is so strong and thank those that have been willing to share their stories. These are the moments that shape the community that we will pass on to the next generation.
