Heroes
In english we have been learning about greek mythology (and mythology from other places). One thing I’ve learnt is that there’s almost always a hero, so here’s a list of the heroes I know:
Spiderman (or Peter Parker)
Peter Parker’s your average nerdy type person and if you called him athletic you’d be a liar. One day however, Peter is bitten by a very rare super spider. The poison swarms through his body and Peter’s is given spider like gifts. He can build webs, climb walls, even see without his glasses and Peter becomes that very famous Spiderman.
Anakin Skywalker (also known as Darth Vader *evil music*)
Anakin is the probably the most famous jedi there ever was. Even though he turns to the dark side half way through the six movies (not to mention kill a lot of people), he is saved by Luke Skywalker (another great hero -and Anakin’s son) and Darth Vader becomes Anakin once again.
Superman (Clark Kent)
This is really sad -but i don’t know much about him just that he can fly and he wears his underware over a pair of tights, with a t-shirt that has a big S on it (yer, real great look)!
I know a lot more heroes (and heroines), but I don’t know anything about them (i don’t watch alot of movies that have heroes in them). So yer…thanks for reading my post.
I really liked reading your comments about heroes - well the superhero versions! I’d be really interested in hearing what you thought about the Greek mythology heroes you learnt about, as well as modern day heroes in real life. Are there any people you consider to be heroes today? What makes them a hero do you think?
