Susan: Hi, Bob. May I ask you a question? Bob: Yes, please. Susan: Who's your personal hero? Bob: Who's my personal hero? Interesting. Why do you ask? Susan: I came across a webpage this morning. It's about a survey of personal heroes. Do you want to know the result? Bob: Yes, what's the result? Susan: Family members are listed about a third of the time. Most importantly, one-fourth of the people surveyed regard their mother as their hero. Mothers are mentioned more than any other person. Does that surprise you? Bob: Well, not really. When you think about it, many highly accomplished individuals often attribute their success to their mothers. For example, George Washington said that "All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her." Susan: But why do you think mothers are so often considered as personal heroes? Bob: Well, I think there are two kinds of heroes: famous heroes and personal heroes. For famous heroes, we usually consider some famous or important people who are brave and selfless. Susan: Then what kind of people can be personal heroes? Bob: A personal hero can be someone we know, someone who inspires us and we admire. Mothers are the most generous people in the world. They can sacrifice everything, including their own wishes, their time and love, to make things better for us. Susan: That's true. Actually most mothers possess heroic qualities: courage, bravery and selflessness. Maybe that's why we often say "Mothers are great."
