☆ Modern Heroes

ヒーローについては今日が最後。
あなたにとっての「ヒーロー」の
定義は何ですか？

These days movie stars and singers are
the most modern day heroes to the younger
generations. Perhaps it is because they are
rich, beautiful and talented? Are these people
your modern heroes? I prefer heroes who
sacrifice something to help other people.
I like great characters who are not selfish.
Do you think it's possible we could all have
the potential to be a hero? If you could be a
hero, what kind of hero would you be? I'd like
to be a mixture of many famous people I've
read about.
By Christina

sacrifice - 犠牲にする
potential - 可能性、見込み

確かに、最近ではスーパーマンなどの
古典的なヒーローよりは
歌手や役者などより身近な人の方が
ヒーローになりやすいのかもしれません。
世界で活躍する野球選手は
子供にとってすばらしいヒーロー像ですよね。
