2.How do you distinguish the hero and the celebrity?

The hero and celebrity are both famous people.however,they are not of the same kind.there are several ways to distinguish them.

First, a hero becomes famous because of his uncommon courage,achievements.and self-sacrifice made most often for the benefit of others.his accomplishments are still evident in our own day.but in contrast,a celebrity becomes famous not so much because of any enduring achievement as because of much publicity.

Second,to become a hero,one needs accomplishment,but to become a celebrity,one only needs luck.the hero was distingushed by his accomplishment;the celebrity by his image and trademark.

Finally,there is another distinction:heroes inspire respect;celebrities inspire envy.the main reason is that the celebrities are exactly like common people except for the attention they get from the media,and many people believe that they could become another celebrity with good luck.

3.Why do Americans generally value time?give examples to show this attitude towards time. In the united states,many people keenly feel the shortness of each lifttime.they are aware that once a day in their life is gone,it will never come back.and americans believe no one stands still.if you are not moving ahead,you are falling behind. So they value time and want every minute to count.

This attitude towards time is shown in the fast pace of life in the country.whatever they do they always seem to be in a rush. You find people hurrying to get where they are going.they hurry to eating places for a meal and finish it as quickly as possible.

Also American do what they can to save time.they produce a lot of labour-saving devices such as chothes and dish-washers;they rapidly communicate through phone call,telex and e-mail and cut down on personal contacts.
