Structure analysis and writing 8 Question:
Some first responders do not succeed in helping others and they get injured or die in their efforts. Do these people become heroes because of what happens to them as they try to help others-instead of what they actually make happen?(Para. 9) Example:
Ms. McMahon was the founder of a cycling association. Her husband was a police officer who was killed in an off-duty bicying accident. Ms.McMahon thought that Sgt. Russell was indeed a hero because he showed distinct courage when trying hard in a heavy snowstorm to stop the snowplow before it hurt others. She summed up that it’s natural for most people to rush toward safety and away from danger. Heroes, however, rush toward danger to help those in need. (Paras. 10-11) Conclusion:
We expect first responders to rush forward in times of danger. So when they die doing that, we should recognoize their heroic action even though we ourselves may not be that brave. (Para. 12)
