By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others - they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation’s consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us - an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.
Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星), who are legendary, who somehow mange to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That’s hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death - such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

从定义上看，男女主人公都是以非凡的勇气、成就和自我牺牲精神为他人所做的贡献的男人和女人，他们是我们衡量他人的对象。他们是为塑造我们国家的意识和发展以及钦佩他们的人而生活的男女。然而，有些人说，我们的时代是真正的英雄和英雄是很难得到的，英雄主义的想法是超越我们的东西-一个过去的文物。一些人认为，由于冷战结束，美国处于和平，我们处于一个平庸的年代。此外，整体犯罪率下降，经济增长强劲，贫困得到缓解，医学领域继续取得进展。
