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 colours 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.
B. thinks highly of others
C. shares great fame
D. stands on the mountaintop

There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each
afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear
through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn"t wash her window. It
really looks terrible."
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Later in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest.
What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers
through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty
window, through my own shortcomings?
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判)someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through
my own dirty window?" Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me
more clearly.

What does it mean? There are many different things that you can do to make friends. You may find out
what they are if you watch someone make friends. Here is how one new teacher made friends with the
students in her class on the first day of the school. When the bell rang, the teacher smiled at all the students.
Then she said, "Good morning. How nice it is to have all of you in my class this year! I want to know each
of you very much. I am sure we will enjoy working together." The teacher smiled, used a pleasant voice,
and acted in a friendly way. She told the students her name and wrote it on the blackboard. Then she told
