I think anybody has the possibility of being a hero because everybody finds different traits heroic.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think that everyone could be a hero, because heroes only possess certain qualities that make them leaders and different from other people.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, anyone can. But not everyone is a hero. They have to make certain choices and put them into action. This could include saving someone or making the right decision in an event or situation. This decision or action decides who they are as a person and if they are a hero.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes everyone can be a hero because being a hero means you would like to do things that you do not have to help others. Sometimes your little effort could change someone's life.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes anyone can be a hero. No one can tell another person that they cannot have an impact on someone else's life.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, everyone can be a hero if they do something heroic, or someone that does something helpful or that impacts someones life. anyone can be a hero if they try to be. A lot of times heros go unnoticed, if an oppurtunity comes anyone can take the opportunity and become a hero

# data[].attributes.body
no, not everyone can be a hero, because some people are just too evil to be good, and some are too followery. plus being a hero is subjective and just because you think you are, doesn't mean you are

# data[].attributes.body
Anyone can be a hero. A hero is defined as someone who can do the right thing in a bad circumstance. Anyone who is willing to step up can be a hero.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, as long as others or themselves view them as a hero. It is a relative question, but being a hero requires a person to view that other person's actions as heroic. Others can view that person in different ways, but if at least one person sees them as a hero then they are.

# data[].attributes.body
No being a "hero" require personalities traits that not all people possess. To be a hero you must be selfless, compassionate and giving. I can name many people that don't posses any of the traits or anything similar the couldn't be hero they wouldn't think to do things that make you a hero.

# data[].attributes.body
Anyone can be a hero if they believe and do the good thing. We have many different everyday heroes in our life that tend to go un noticed and under appreciated. Firefighters are a good example of an everyday hero

# data[].attributes.body
Yes everyone can be a hero as long as the opportunity is taken. It takes more effort to not try than it does to take the chance.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, anyone can be a hero it just depends on how you handle what comes into your life, whether or not you utilize your positive attributes. If you live by certain standards and value selflessness or freedom rather than greed or power then you will have the opportunity to be a hero sometime in your life.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, anyone can be a hero if they take an opportunity to be heroic and do the right thing to help someone when given the chance.

# data[].attributes.body
i do believe that anyone can be a hero, but if someone were/did something particularly bad, they would have to redeem themselves before they would qualify/be able to become a hero

# data[].attributes.body
You don't need to really be a hero by doing something like saving a life by flying out of the sky and stuff. Those people are superheroes. But you can be a hero by rescuing a cat from a tree or doing something for people. Some others won't get the cat from the tree. If you come to a situation like that, do the thing that is good and help someone. You can be a hero one day.

Bell Ringer 4/14

Can anyone be a hero?

# data[].attributes.body
1)the purpose of the road is to show a path that they should follow

2) I'd Bring a giant cart of my favourite books wrapped in blankets and pillows, seeds, a water filter, clothes, a toothbrush and toothpaste, and a large knife.

3)I think the theme is hopelessness

# data[].attributes.body
the purpose of the road is to help them follow a straight path. On a deserted island I would take my mom, dad,brother, grandmother and dog. The theme is don't pollute and treat other as you would want to be treated because im pretty sure no one want their home destroyed and there town exploded.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of the Road is to explore what lengths someone would go to during the apocalypse I'd say.

1. fishing rod

2. a friendly dog for companionship

3. a sketchbook/notebook with a pencil

4. matches/lighter

5. a knife

I guess the theme is that parents would do anything for their children or something.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of the road is to show the lengths people will go to protect their selves and love ones

1. A map

2. knife

3. food

4. My dad

5 matches

The theme of this story is Good verse evil, man verse god and man verse man.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of the Road in the novel is to show the desolate and hopeless journey in front of them.

1) A map of the island

2) Snacks

3) A solar powered teleportation device

4) A cool panther or something as a companion

5) An interesting book to read while my teleportation device powers up

THEME: The themes of this novel are the connection between father and son, man and god, and man and nature.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the purpose of the Road is to show people how to be optimistic even when you are in the worst situation.

If I would take five items I would take a sword, a big container, a flashlight, a big coat and a notebook.

Theme: I think the themes would be relationships between father and son.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that the purpose of the Road is to really evaluate your personal virtues.

1. Sunscreen- so I don't get burnt(as much)

2. A straw- for coconut juice (-:

3. a really big knife

4. solar power panels

5. a lighter

THEME: I think that the themes of the Road could be self virtues, death, good vs. evil, paternal love between and father and a son, faith, survival, resilience, and God.

# data[].attributes.body
The road in the novel parallels the path of life. Follow the trail, and it will lead you to hope. Like at the beginning of the book, the road begins without hope or a God, but the longer you trek it the more hopeful it gets. On the trail you meet road bumps and hills, bad memories and events. But as long as you keep going forward you will find hope.
Five items I would take with me to a deserted island would be a fully charged computer, battery-powered wifi, a water purifier, food, and batteries, of course. I would use the wifi and computer to contact someone who could find my coordinates and save me, and then use the water purifier for water and food for, well, eating.
The theme of the Road could be about hope and love for family, because it seems he is hopeless and all he has is his son, who is his whole world.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the purpose of the Road is to teach people about the journey of life and hope.

If I was traveling to a deserted island I would take my super-powered walkie-talkie that connects me to Qdoba. This qdoba would airlift me a variety of foods and drinks for that week. (It would be super swag)

I would take some magazines so I wouldn't be bored.

Swimsuits and sunscreen so I could layout.

Body wash

i think the theme of this story is learning how to persevere.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the road is symbolizing the journey the man and the boy have to undertake.

1. Noah and his list of resources ;)

2. Iodine

3. A gun

4. Fishing Rod

5. Strawberry Seeds

I think the theme is hope.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the theme is the presence of the absence of good in the world. The man has to to help the boy along while reminding them of the old world.

1. Water filtration system- To purify the salt water all around us it would be composed of charred wood, carbon and sand

2. Solar powered campfire- so that we could have a renewable source of heat

3. Wheat seeds- For extra food and a staple for food

4. An animal population- for an endless food source and we could also use their bones for tools

5. Henry- Just for giggles ;)

The road is symbolizing the path to God.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the purpose of The Road is to show that even in the worst of times, relationships such as a bond between a son and father can create hope and love.

I would take a water bottle, medicine, a large knife, man vs wild guy, and a radio transceiver. All of these items would help prolong my life and my chances of getting off the island.

I think one theme in this novel could be that even in the darkest of times love can create hope and give us faith to continue on.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of the novel is to illustrate that even times of despair, there will always be glimmers of hope, and there will be meaning to life, such as the boy to his father.

I would take a greenhouse (with hardy edible plants), water filters/irrigation system, a solar power station/ panels for power, necessary tools for construction/defense, and a source of shelter with a very large supply of medicine(s).

These would allow me to have shelter, have adequate food and food sources, clean water sources, a source of power for when warmth leaves and such, and a source of healing to survive if I suffer injury or illness.

I think the theme of this novel is that humans will continue to adapt and survive as long as the conditions permit, through desolation and despair

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of the novel is to show the relationship between the man and his son and also to show how life is after humanity is slowly disappearing.

If I could only take five things to the deserted island, I would take my mom because I love her, a bottle of IB profen because I always get headaches, a knife to cut things from trees and such, a notebook, and my cat Pepper because she's my best friend.

I think the theme of this novel is hold on to the ones you love especially is the world around you is falling apart.
