What does it mean to be a hero?

this language arts assignment is due tomorrow. i’ve tried answering it but i’ve got no clue what to ? ?

Explanation:

What it means to be a Hero.    One automatically thinks of superman when the word hero is mentioned, but it doesn’t take a life to be saved for someone to be recognized as a hero. Some of the greatest heroes are those who don’t expect the fame and glory for a good deed done.  

It takes a lot to be courageous, especially to be courageous in all situations; even the bad. Helen Keller lived a very tough life with no ability to see or hear but still she found a way to get passed her disabilities and rose above the boundaries that were put in front of her. She is a hero to all those who see no light at the end of the tunnel, to those who think they can’t persevere, but really, little do they know they can.   She is a person the weak can look up to and a person who shows people all goals are possible. She reached her goals and left a legacy so that her name will never be forgotten.
