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.（1）According to this passage, a hero is a person who always _.A . gives us courageB . thinks highly of othersC . shares great fameD . stands on the mountain top（2）If you want to live like a hero, you should _.A . experience a new and meaningful lifeB . listen to something worth talking aboutC . erve your own fame and try to be famousD . know where and how you want to live and die（3）The underlined word “vision” in the passage means “_”.A . 风景B . 想象C . 远见D . 形象（4）Black people in America used to _ before Martin Luther King, Jr.A . shop at the whites storesB . drive buses with the whiteC . take walks in the whites parksD . eat in restaurants without the white（5）What can we learn from the passage?A .

Its your turn, put the strainer over the mouth of the jar, fill the strainer with ice. Watch the jar.What happened?A cloud formed in the jar! Some of the hot water at the bottom of the jar turned into hot water vapor(蒸汽). The water vapor rose and met with the cold air coming off the ice. When the water vapor condensed, it formed a cloud. Hot air rises and carries with it lots of water vapor, the higher the air rises, the more it cools down.
