After you read the article come back to the post and write a response to the following questions:
1. What is a hero? What qualities do you look for in a hero? Does heroism always require physical strength, or can it be defined in other ways?
2. Does heroism demand extraordinary circumstances, like a train attack or war? Or can heroism take place in our everyday lives? Can anyone be a hero?
A hero to me is someone who does special or goes out there way to do something good like save a life or a child or an old lady from being hurt. Some one who didn't have to do that. The qualities I look for in a hero is a person who can be humble but confident. Heroism doesn't always require physical strength if a celebrity with billions of dollars stopped gave millions of dollars to give food and clean water to a country that's has a big percent of people who in homes less and in poverty, I would look at them as a hero. Anyone can be a hero, it's just that you're helping or doing good where you don't have too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hero is is someone that works for themselves and not for the money someone that saves people but ask for nothing in return that's a hero heroism can take place anywhere saving someone from rape or a shooting or sparing someone some change to get on the bus - Moses ®
ReplyDeleteA hero is someone who helps another, goes out of their way to help someone or something without expecting something in return. When you think of the qualities of a hero you think of outgoing, dependent, strong , caring etc. heroism doesn't always require physical strength , in other circumstances it's much more than that heroism can come from actions other than physical and Come from the heart. Heroism doesn't demand extraordinary circumstances like a train attack or war, lets say some one who collects abunch of money and donates it to a foundation or a good cause like cancer research , or if you go clean up your neighborhood of ecosystem to help the earth and wild life they are still heroes to a full extent.
ReplyDeleteHeroism can take place everyday. Everyone can be a hero the main thing is to do it not for yourself but to help others or something . A man or woman who hands a homeless person a $20 or even 5cents they still see you as a hero because unlike most people you thought about how others feel and tried helping and it's the thought that counts you made the person happy just by helping alittle and you'll still be looked at as a hero
A hero is a person that people look up to as a role model. Qualities a hero should have are leadership and moxy. Strength is not always requires to be a hero its just off of the things that you do and how people view you after you do them , if its a good deed, or even if its something small like giving you a few dollars after you have been starving on the street . A hero does not always require exatraordinary circumstances, it all depends on what people see you as for doing a certain thing. If it impacts their lives in any good way they can look up to you as a hero in their eyes. Heroism takes place everywhere in our lives, people that give their money to the homeless and starving all over the world are heroes and the people who are elected to run our country and states are heros . Anybody can be a hero its just all in what they do and how they do it
ReplyDeleteA hero is somebody that other people can look up and is a role model to people around the world. The special things they do make them a hero such as donating for cancer
ReplyDeleteA hero is a person that people like to stand up to as a role model. Hero have to impress other to make them a hero and if u don't do any thing to show your self then your gana be probably no one and Heros are some one if they help some one fro falling getting hurt or help them with problems .

To me a hero needs more than just physical strength.A hero is somebody who stands up for what's right no matter what the cost
ReplyDeleteA hero to me is someone who stands up for what's right even when no one is on their side and they fight for what they believe in and sometimes they inspire others to follow them which makes them role models for just fighting for what they believe in this is what a hero means to me

A hero to me is a person who has done courageous things that few people actually have done. They have their own way of viewing things that make them do what they believe in with our caring of judgment. Physical Strength isn't always what makes up a hero, There have been countless times where people have shown heroism with out having to save lives or fight for another individual. The simplicity of just giving something to someone that doesn't have, can make you be a hero in anyone's eyes.

ReplyDeleteA hero is someone who saves people of does something great. Heros are usually strong minded and put themselves ahead to protect. No, you don't need strength to be a hero. It can be found through courage and selflessness. No, anybody can be a hero.

ReplyDeleteA hero is someone who helps other. Heroes risk their lives to save others. Example for Heroes can U.S. Army, Police that risks their lives and our away from their families so we can be safe with our families. Hero is a person who would help others without thinking about consequences.
ReplyDeleteA hero is some one you look up to. They don't have to be saving some one from a bad situation like what superhero does.its a person that has a great heart . Who does good . Someone you look up to . Someone you wanna be wen u grow up.

ReplyDeleteA hero to me is someone iconic,someone to look up to,or someone to be or at like

ReplyDeleteA hero is someone who doesn't need a reason to be a kind person; they just are. A hero is someone who isn't afraid to use their voice to be heard, they're brave and strong. They know who they are and how strong of a person they are but is humble. A hero is almost a role model in design. Heroism does not need any physical trait, you can be the littlest of people and be one of the strongest people out there. Each year on my birthday my best friend cries to me; telling me I'm her hero. I talked her out of suicide, I helped her become strong again throughout the years and I'm still there for her. She made me her hero, I'm not strong. I'm little compared to most people. Heroes can be anyone
ReplyDeleteA hero is that one or several individuals who are always willing to help others in need, people look upto them as their role models. It does not take physical strength to become a hero sometimes words are as equally important as actions. that one person can give many the courage to speak up and take a stand for themselves and for what they believe in.
ReplyDeleteA hero to me is someone who made an impact in the world. Someone that we look up to and strive to be strength has nothing to do with being a "hero". It can be what an individual says that makes them a hero or a simply action that they've did. The only strength that makes you a hero is the one that made you accomplish the action or say what you've said to earn that tittle.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes someone a hero is if the person is good at all times and treat others with respect.
ReplyDeleteA hero is someone who has a positive impact on someone's life. Someone who people may look up to and try to carry out their actions on a daily basis. A hero is not always some one with physical strength.
ReplyDeleteHeroism can take place in our everyday lives. An example of a hero would be a firefighter. They go into fires and save lives. Therefore anyone can be a hero.
