A
A
hero
is
not
just
a
person
who
saves
lives,
a
hero
can
also
be
a
person
who
simply
likes to help others and respects them. My hero is Adam Sandler who has saved many
people
from
sadness
simply
by
making
them
laugh.
He
does
not
work
for
money.
He
works
to make a person smile in the world. Adam Sandler does not focus on material things,
but instead he thinks the most important thing in life are the people around you.
Adam Sandler was born on September 9,1966 in Brooklyn, New York. He has seven
brothers. He was always the class clown (
小丑
) in school. When Adam Sandler turned
17 years old, at the advice of his brother he tried out for a comedy club. That's
how
he
came
to
recognize
his
true
talent
as
a
comedian.
He
started
acting
in
the
Cosby

Show
and then went on to movies. Adam Sandler has starred in many comedy movies like
Billy

Madison, Happy

Gilmore, Big

Daddy,
and many more including the ones that he
has had smaller roles in, like
Hot

Chick
.
Adam Sandler is a very funny man who has been making comedy since his teens. He
is
my
hero
because
when
I
have
had
difficult
times,
such
as
when
my
parents
separated,
I watched his movies to help me bring a smile back to my face. Adam Sandler saved
me from my emotional desperation (
绝望
). He taught me not to give in. With him as
my key I was able to unlock another world, a happier land. Adam Sandler makes a lot
of movies that I have watched at times when I have been depressed. One of those in
particular was
Happy

Gilmore
. Watching that
movie changed my way of looking at life.
I don't know what I would have done without Adam Sandler in this world.

Bryan Clay is The World's Greatest Athlete. Really. That's his title. On August
22, 2008, he won the gold medal in the decathlon (
十项全能运动
) at the Olympics in
Beijing,
China.
It
is
great
success
to
win
this
event.
In
1912,
when
American
decathlete Jim Thorpe won gold in the decathlon at the Olympics in Sweden, the king
of that cou
ntry told him, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Ever
since, the man who wins the decathlon has been known unofficially as “The World's
Greatest Athlete”．

The
gold
medal
hasn't
changed
Clay's
life
that
much.
He
lives
in
California,
with
his
wife, Sarah, and their three young children. “I never did this to get rich or
famous. I do it because I love the event. I really didn't expect anything more than
what I've done. I expected to win the gold medal, and then I expected to come home
to live as
normal.” His life is normal, but the way he looks at life has changed.
The athlete, who grew up poor in Oahu, Hawaii, says, “Now I really do believe that
anything is possible.”

Clay
wanted
to
share
that
belief
with
as
many
children
as
he
could,
so
he
started
the
Bryan
Clay
Foundation,
which
provides
learning
and
athletic
opportunities
to
poor
kids in Hawaii and California. Clay speaks to kids often and finds that people want
