Passage 1(2023·四川巴中·统考一模)
When Christopher Reeve made the first Superman film, people always asked him the definition (定义) of a hero. He used to answer that it was a person who did something heroic without considering the results. But later he said his definition was different — a hero is a common person who finds the strength to go on living although he faces lots of difficulties.
Reeve used to be a very lucky person. He was tall, good-looking and talented. Apart from his acting ability, he was also very good at sports. He could ski, dive (滑雪、潜水), fly a plane, ride a horse, etc.
However, everything changed on a day in 1995. Reeve got hurt badly when he fell off a horse. He hit his head on the ground and broke his neck. Just after the accident, Reeve’s mother thought he should be allowed to die. She couldn’t imagine that he would want to live in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Reeve himself wasn’t sure, either. The only person who was able to make him believe that life was still worth living was his wife Dana. She told him, “It’s your life and you have to make the decision. But I want you to know that I’ll be with you. You’re still you and I love you.” This was the key to his recovery (恢复).
Just three months after he left hospital, Reeve appeared at a big film festival in a wheelchair. Although he couldn’t’ breathe without artificial (人工的) help, he worked hard and didn’t give up hope.
