At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them.

25、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 a community who will listen. But a

26、 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 experie

27、nce 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 fa

28、mous, 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. With

29、out 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 endle

30、ss.（分数：10.00）(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（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Acc

31、ording 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（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Ma

32、donna 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（分数：2.00）A

33、B.C.D.(4).Gandhi and Martin Luther King are typical examples of outstanding leaders who _.A. are good at demonstrating their charming charactersB. can move the masses with their forceful speechesC. are capable of meeting all challenges and hardshipsD. can provide an answer to the problems of their

34、people（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).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 personali

35、ties（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.八、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Change is the principle-and the process-that enables us to move on and upward growth and change, of continuous improvement. To make meaningful progress, we need to consider one other aspect of change as it is used only by human our thought. In the words o

36、f Madame, “The voice of thought is so soft that it is easy to forget about it, but it is also so clear that it is impossible to misunderstand it.“Just as the education of nerve is most important to the excellent athlete and education of the mind is vital to the scholar, education of the thought is v

37、ital to the truly highly effective person.Training and educating the thought, however, requires even greater concentration, more balanced discipline, more consistently honest living. It requires regular feasting on inspiring literature, thinking noble thoughts and, above all, living in harmony with

38、its still small voice.Just as junk food and lack of exercise can ruin an athletes condition, those things that are not decent, crude, or unhealthy can lead to an inner darkness and make us wonder “What is right and wrong?“In the words of Dag Hammarskjold, You cannot play with the animal in you witho

39、ut becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without losing your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden tidy doesnt reserve a plot for weeds.Once we are self-aware, we must choose purposes and principles to live by; otherwise the

40、hole will be filled, and we will lose our self-awareness and become like groveling animals that live mainly for survival.And there is no easy way in developing them. The Law of the Harvest governs; we will always reap what we sow-no more, no less. I believe that as we grow and develop, an increasing

41、ly educated thought will push us along the path of personal freedom, security, wisdom, and power. Moving upward requires us to learn, commit, and do on increasingly higher planes. To keep progressing, we must learn, commit, and do-learn, commit, and do-and learn, commit, and do again.（分数：10.00）(1).W

When she and her engineer husband married a few years ago, they built a $ 100,000, three-bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed to pre

47、vent air leaks, the house was equipped with small double-paned (双层玻璃的) windows and several other energy-saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in, however. Pricillas eyes burned. Her throat was constantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though

48、she had suddenly developed a strange illness.Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The level of formaldehyde (甲醛) gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers. The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cabinets and wall-to-wall carpeting.The Ouch

49、idas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nations drive to save energy. The problem itself isnt new. “The indoor environment was dirty long before energy conservation came along, “says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland. “Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases.“The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the days when energy was cheap, home builders didnt w
