Bonjour à tous, comme vous le savez le Bac arrive très vite, c'est pourquoi j'ai déjà un peu travaillé mes notions, mais j'aimerais que vous corrigiez ma notion myths and heroes s'il vous plait.
Merci pour vos réponses.
I’m going to talk about Myths and heroes. To begin with I’d like to give their definition. A myth is a story that may or may not be true. Some myths may have started as ‘true’ stories but as people re-told them some parts may have changed by mistake, or take them more interesting. However, a hero is a person who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. It can be the main character in a book or a film or a person with superhuman qualities. It can also be a modern-day hero, a person who has performed a heroic act. So, the question is: What really is a hero, and can everybody be a hero? First we will see some appearance of a hero, then we will focus on myths.
First of all, we can use the document “a hard decision”. It is a story narrates by the American pilot’s son. He testifies to what his father lived. During the WW2 the father’s plane crashed down, so he was badly wounded. Fortunately he met a German priest that rescued him. The priest took care of him, he protected him from Germans. Thus, the Priest disobeyed the orders to save an enemy, he is a hero. Moreover, the pilot was fighting against Germans to defend freedom, so we can say that he is a hero too.
Then, to take another example we can focus on the movie “Imitation Game” through the trailer and a testimony. It is a true story. During the same war, Alan Turing, a mathematician and autistic person, broke Enigma it was the code which Germans sent coded messages. To accomplish this, he created a machine. Thus, he decrypted the nazi code and anticipated the German attacks. Thereby, his work helped save approximately 22million lives. Despite his problems at communication and his solitary live, Alan created the computer’s ancestor. Thus, we can say that he is hero. However some time later, he had to choose between jail and chemical castration because he was gay, and it was illegal.
Therefore, there are several types of hero. A hero can be the person who saves a life when he had to kill him. It can be the person who fights to freedom, or the person who fights hard to prevent deaths of millions of people. So, everybody can be a hero, providing that its acts are courageous, brave, and worthy of a hero
Moreover we also talk about myths to evoke heroes.
“Troy” is a film’s poster about an antiquity story. Achilles is a half-god whose father was a king and mum was a nymph. He is the hero of the battle of Troy, a story based on the Iliad by Homer. Actually, Helen of Sparta was kidnapped by Paris of Troy, which caused that war. Achilles gives the image of an invincible, invulnerable being with a lot of strength except he has got a weakness: his heel, which is also a symbolical proof of his humanity He is a character of fiction who never existed and he gives the image of a super-hero who is above men.
Thus, a hero can also be an imaginary person which is a model of viewers who can identify with him.
To conclude, a hero is a person who fights for values, for peace or to save lives. However, the qualification of “hero” is very subjective because a person can be a hero to someone and not for another. A hero can be real or not, it can only be a character of fiction that makes you want to follow his example and become a good person. Therefore, everybody can become a hero as soon as he acts like a hero.

I’m going to talk about Myths and heroes. To begin with I’d like to give their definition. A myth is a story that may or may not be true. Some myths may have started as ‘true’ stories but as people re-told them some parts may have changed by mistake, or intentionally to make them more interesting. However, a hero is a person who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. It can be the main character in a book or a film or a person with superhuman qualities. It can also be a modern-day hero, a person who has performed a heroic act. So, the question is: What (who, what refers to an inanimate object) really is a hero, and can everybody be a hero? First we will see some appearance (appearance is incorrect rather you can say: we can look at some aspects or traits)of a hero, then we will focus on myths.
First of all, we can use the document “a hard decision”. It is a story narrated by the (an..the denotes a sense of a specific person or one you had earlier on mentioned) American pilot’s son. He testifies to what his father lived (did) --writes about his father's life. During the WW2 his father’s plane crashed down and was badly wounded. Fortunately he met a German priest that rescued him. The priest took care of him, he protected him from the Germans. Thus, the Priest disobeyed the orders to save an enemy, he is a hero. Moreover (moreover you would use when emphasizing a point so its not the right word to use here) , the pilot was fighting against Germans to defend freedom, so we can say that he is a hero too.
Then, we can also look at another example we can focus on the movie “Imitation Game” through its trailer and a testimony. It is a true story. During the same war, Alan Turing, a mathematician and autistic person, broke Enigma, which was the code which Germans sent coded messages. To accomplish this, he created a machine that he used to decrypt the Nazi code and anticipate the German attacks. Thereby, his work helped save approximately 22 million lives. Despite his problems with communication and his solitary live, Alan created the computer’s ancestor. Thus, we can say that he is hero. However some time later, he had to choose between jail and chemical castration because he was gay, which was illegal.
Therefore, there are several types of hero. A hero can be the person who saves a life when he had to kill him. It can be a person who fights for freedom, or someone who fights hard to prevent deaths of millions of people. So, everybody can be a hero, provided they are courageous, brave, and worthy of being heroes.
Moreover we also talk about myths to evoke heroes.
“Troy” is a film’s poster (Troy is a movie...Troy's film poster) about an antiquity story. Achilles is a half-god whose father was a king and mum was a nymph. He is the hero of the battle of Troy, a story based on the Iliad by Homer. Actually, Helen of Sparta was kidnapped by Paris of Troy, which caused that war. Achilles gives the image of an invincible, invulnerable being with a lot of strength except he has got a weakness: his heel, which is also a symbolical proof of his humanity He is a character of fiction (fictitious character) who never existed and he gives the image of a super-hero who is above men.
Thus, a hero can also be an imaginary person who is a model of viewers who identify with him.
To conclude, a hero is a person who fights for values, for peace or to save lives. However, the qualification of “hero” is very subjective because a person can be a hero to someone and not for another. A hero can be real or not, it can only be a character of fiction that makes you want to follow his example and become a good person. Therefore, everyone can become a hero as long as he/she acts like a hero.
