Unit 2 there were few doctors, so he had to work very hard on his own.
My hero—Dr Norman Bethune
By Wang Lingling Norman Bethune is one of the most famous heroes in China. He was a Canadian doctor. He came to China to help the Chinese people and died for them.
Norman Bethune was born in 1890.He became a doctor in 1916 and went to Spain in 1936 to treat the wounded soldiers during the war there. He soon realised that many people were dying because they did not get to hospital quickly enough. Dr Bethune developed new ways of taking care of the sick. He invented special medical tools to use outside hospitals and chose to the fighting areas so that doctors could treat the wounded more quickly.His inventions saved many lives.
In 1938,Dr Bethune came to China and helped treat the wounded during the Anti Japanese War. At that time, there were few doctors, so he had to work very hard on his own. His experience of treating people in Spain was Useful in China. He developed training courses for local doctors and nurses, and wrote books so that they could learn about how he treated the sick.
Dr Bethune often worked very hard without resting or taking care of himself; Once, he even worked for sixty-nine hours without stopping and managed to save over a hundred lives. One day in 1939,he cut his finger during an operation, but he continued his work without treating it. In the end, he died of his wound.
Dr Bethune’s work for the Chinese people made him a hero in China. There are
many books and films about him, and he is still remembered in both China and Canada today.
Unit 3 heroes
Read the passage and choose the best title.
My favourite Greek hero is Odysseus..He is the main character in The Odyssey, a famous story by the Greek storyteller, Homer.
Odysseus and his friends go from Greece to Troy to fight. After ten years, they win and are very proud of themselves. They win and are very proud of themselves. Then they set off for home, but on their way, there is a great storm. They become lost, and that is the start of their great adventures. During that time, they meet many strange people. Most of them want to hurt Odysseus and his friends, but a few help them. On one island a very big man with only one eye tries to kill them. During this fight, Odysseus loses many of his friends, but he manages to get away.
After ten years of fighting and ten more years on the way home, Odysseus completes his journey and manages to get back to his own country, alone. His wife and son are waiting for him to come back. However, he looks so different that they fail to recognise him. After Odysseus saves his wife and son from some bad men, they finally know who he is. He is happy o be back home again after so many adventures.
I like this story because it is interesting and exciting.I think Odysseus is a true hero. He is very clever and has a strong will. I also learn from him that great men never give up, no matter what difficulties they face.。
