        　　Like many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. 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
f ame(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 fa
mous 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 tak e 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.

        　　Popeye the Sailor Man(《大力水手》)first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.
The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach(菠菜)to make him strong. People
watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped
sell 33% more spinach than before!
        　　Spinach became a necessary part of many people’s diets. Even some children
who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
        　　Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this
is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than other green vegetable.
        　　People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who
studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what
was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than
it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.
        　　Today, we know that the little iron in spinach cannot make a difference in
how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else that the body
needs—folic acid(叶酸).
        　　It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person
strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all
along.
