Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship. At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This leads us to ask: What is a hero? Despite immense differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people. A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and community who will listen. But a hero goes beyond mere fame. Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high-voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant? Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks. It may be possible for large-scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.【小题1】Although heroes may come from different cultures, they __________.A．generally possess certain inspiring characteristicsB．probably share some weaknesses of ordinary peopleC．are often influenced by previous generationsD．all unknowingly attract a large number of fans【小题2】 According to the passage, heroes are compared to high-voltage transformers in that _______.A．they have a vision from the mountaintopB．they have warm feelings and emotionsC．they can serve as concrete examples of noble principlesD．they can make people feel stronger and more confident【小题3】Madonna and Michael Jackson are not considered heroes because __________.A．they are popular only among certain groups of peopleB．their performances do not improve their fans morallyC．their primary concern is their own financial interestsD．they are not clear about the principles they should follow【小题4】The author concludes that historical changes would __________.A．be delayed without leaders with inspiring personal qualitiesB．not happen without heroes making the necessary sacrificesC．take place if there were heroes to lead the peopleD．produce leaders with attractive personalities

One morning in Philadelphia, the sun shone bright
through all the thick jungles and the tall churches. John, 6, wearing the
worn-out clothes, walked from afar, his dark small hands holding a piece of
stolen bread.
John stopped for a moment at the entrance to the
sacred church and then left tightlyholding the
bread,&&&&&&
He was an orphan(弧儿), whose
parents were killed in World War Illeaving him alonein the orphanage for five
years, Like many children in the orphanage, he had a lot of free time. Mostly
no one took care of them, so they had to learn how to steal those they
wanted.&&&&&&&&&&&&&
John believed the existence of God, so every Sunday
morning in any case be would go to the cburch to have a look and listen to
those people singing inside or reciting the Bible.He felt only at this moment
he was the child of God and so close to God. But he couldn'tenter because his
clothes were so dirty. John himself knew it.
John was quietly counting. This was his 45th Sunday at
the entrance to the church. He stood on tiptoe for a while and walked away.
As time passed, the pastor(牧师) noticed John and learned from others that he was
thesmall boy who liked stealing things in the orphanages.
On the 46th Sunday, the sun was shining and John came
still holding a piece of bread with his dark small hands. When he just stood
there, the pastor came out. He felt like running away, but he was carried by
the pastor's friendly smile.
The pastor walked up to his side, clearly seeing
John's small hands tremble.
&Are you John?&
John didn't answer, but looked at the pastor and nodded.
&Do you believe in God?& the pastor petted
John on his head stained with dust.
&Yes,l do!& This time John told him loudly.
&So you believe in yourself?&
John looked at the pastor, without a word.
The pastor went on saying, &At the first sight of
you, I find you're different from other& kids because you have a good
heart.&
His face tunung red, John said timidly, &In fact,
I'm a thief.& With that, he loweredhis head.
The pastor didn't speak, but held John's dark small
hands, slowly opened them andput them against his wrinkled face.
&Ah:& Just at the same time, John shouted
and was about to take out his dark smallhands. Yet the pastor tightly held his
small hands and spread them out in the sun.
&Do you see, John?&
&You're cupping the sunshine in your hands.&
John blankly looked at his hands: when did they become
so beautiful?
&In God's eyes, all cluldren are the same. When
they are willing to spread out their hands to greet the sun, the sun will
naturally shine on them. And you have two things more than they do. First is
courage and the second is kindness.& With that, the pastor led him into
the church.&&&&& It was the first time that John went
into this sacred place, and at this moment he& didn't feel inferior, but
the unspeakable warmth.
On that morning embracing the sunshine, John found
himself again, along with the& confidence, satisfaction, happiness, dreams
he had never had.
Twenty years have passed. Now the boy who ever tightly
held the bread with his dirt hands has been the most famous chefin Philadelphia
and made many popular dishes.
Every Sunday morning, he would personally send the
bread he baked to the orphanage. Those children who greeted him with cheers
were used to consciously spreading their palms before they got the bread.
Because they all knew when we are willing to spread
out our hands to greet thesunshine, the sun will naturally shine on us.

Bicycles are a great way to get around.
They’re fun to ride, especially down hills. And, as you speed along the road,
you might also think of ways in which you could improve your bike— make it
safer, more efficient, or more comfortable. In fact, the two-wheeled machines
make for some cool science projects.
This year's Intel International Science and
Engineering Fair (ISEF), held last May in Cleveland, featured（had）three bicycle projects from
three countries. Like many of the other experiments presented at ISEF, the bike
projects showed that some of the most interesting scientific research often
begins by taking a closer look at things you care about.
Renato Angulo Chu had even grander
ambitions. The 12th-grader from Lima, Peru, wanted to address some of
his country's economic troubles.
&I see a problem in my country,&
Renato said. &If you go to the forests in Peru, in some places you cannot
find electricity. If you go with my bicycle, you can turn on the lights.&
Renato, 16, spent 3 years designing his
special Multibike. The device looks like a fixed exercise bike. It has wires
fixed along the frame and a blender strapped (fastened) to the back. Turning
the pedals operates the blender. The same principle can be used to sharpen
knives or sweep city streets.
The Multibike can work either as a fixed
bike or as a bicycle able to travel city streets and country roads. It's made
from inexpensive materials, and the user gets exercise while pedaling to
operate a machine.
&You pedal the bike, and you can mix
any drink you want,& Renato said. More importantly, he added, the same
concept could be used to bring light to houses in remote regions of the
rainforest.
1.What can we learn from the first
paragraph?
A．Bikes should be made more comfortable to ride.
B．You can improve your bicycle for science research.
C．Many inventions are connected with the bicycle.
D．Bicycles are the best way to go about
2.Which of the following is true according
to the passage?
A．ISEF is an exhibiton displaying bicycle experiments designed by
B．Looking closely at things you are concerned about can lead to
scientific research.
C．Renato’s improvement of the bicycle has solved the country’s great problem.
D．Renato’s special bicycle will soon be put into use in remote areas.’
3.The underlined word “address” in
the third paragraph probably has the same meaning as _______.
A．make address written
B．give up
C．work at
D．speak at
4.Renato’s special Multibike has all the
following &EXCEPT& ________.
A．making knives sharp
B．mixing any kind of drinks
C．producing electricity
D．operating a machine with its own electricity
5.It can be inferred that Renato’s special
bicycle is mainly designed for ________.
A．distant areas in the rainforest without electricity.
B．the use of his own family to make life easier.
C．the competition of ISEF to win money to support remote rainforests
D．enough exercise by pedaling it

Steve Jobs-A surprising success.
Nothing in the early years of
Steve Job’s life suggested that he would be so
successful. Born in San Francisco, the child of two students, he was adopted
and grew up close to Silicon Valley. While at company-and he and his best
friend Steve Wozniak got summer jobs there.
After finishing high school in
1972, Jobs studied at an expensive liberal arts college in Portland, Oregon but
he dropped pout after one after one term. He grew his hair and a beard, slept
on friends’ floors, and sometimes went to a Hare
Krishna temple for free meals. Like many drop-outs at that Beatles-inspired
time, his ambition was to visit a guru（古鲁[印度教的宗师或领袖]）in India, which he eventually did with a friend. When they got
there, the guru had died.
At this point, Jobs has a limited
education, and no obvious talents, apart from a notorious（臭名远扬）ability to talk.
However, he did have a devoted friend who was an electronics genius. They were
a great team. Without Jobs’ s ambition, high design
standards, the ability to make deals and& great maketing skills-Wozniak
might well have spent a quiet life designing hardware at HP.

C．Steve Jobs’s
parents worked at Hewlett-Packard
D．Steve Jobs didn’t know his real parents

D．Steve Wozniak liked a
quiet lifeEven within small-scale and self-determined art initiatives now, the quest for mere survival often translates into an exclusive focus on infrastructural issues—on resources, funding, and even endless expansion. When do we actually talk about art? About specific art works and projects? About what they do and how they are perceived? As corporate megastructures like the Vuitton Foundation and maxi-bureaucratic approaches within public organisations demand more and more of our attention, we seem to have half-forgotten art itself. Or has art actually become something else altogether in the meantime?
Over two evenings, Maria Lind sits down with Doug Ashford, Mary Walling Blackburn, Naeem Mohaiemen, and Emily Segal (K-HOLE), to talk about individual artworks or projects chosen by the artists in light of these changes. For instance, Naeem Mohaiemen will discuss Jean-Luc Godard’s 1976 film Ici et Ailleurs (Here and Elsewhere).
