35、s of a nation,it will tell you the potential(潜力 )of that nation. Today in America,if you ask the high school students to list their heroes,their choice would probably fall into three groups.The first group of heroes would be the rock stars the people connected with rock music.There is no doubt that
36、such people do have talent(天才 ） but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model.The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good.The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles.However,one should seek more in a hero than such things as
37、 money and good clothes.

38、 star. A third type of hero is the TV or movie star.This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome.However,the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people.Today,the rock star,the athlete,and the actor all have become the m
39、odels of the youth in America.Really,do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor,a teacher,or a scientist?These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes.However,they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone. What is really sad is tha
40、t the young try to imitate(模仿 ) their heroes.They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles.If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars,athletes and actors,the future does not look too bright. 59.The last sentence of the first paragraph implies tha
