           银幕上的“超人”是很多同学们心目中的英雄。不过在纽约的地铁站却真的出现了个“超人”。究竟是怎么回事呢?一起去看看吧!      What does the superman look like in your mind? Many Americans think he is like the hero in the
famous film Superman, who uses his great powers to help the people in danger and save the world.       50-year-old New Yorker Wesley Autrey is an ordinary(普通) construction(建筑) worker. He doesn't
have any powers as the superman. However, he became a  “Subway Superman” because of his brave deeds.
    One day, Autrey was waiting for the subway train on the platform(月台) with his children. Suddenly, he saw a young man fall down to the tracks(铁轨) as a train came in. Autrey quickly jumped down onto the tracks andpulled the young man to safety as the train passed just a few centimeters(厘米) above them.
    The story of the “Subway Superman” soon spread through the New York City.  And later Autrey received theBronze Medallion(铜质大奖章) at City Hall in New York from the mayor.(市长) The medallion is the city's highest for civic (市民的) achievement. (成就)
    Besides the civic(市民的) award,(奖) Autrey was given a year's free rides on New York's subway and buses and a lot of money. (一年内免费乘坐所有地铁和公车)The Walt Disney Co. also gave Autrey and his family a one-week trip to the Disney World Theme Park and tickets to the Broadway.(百老汇)
    Many people called Autrey a true hero, but he himself didn't think so. “I don't feel like I did something special. 
    I just saw someone who needed help,” he said. “I did what I felt right.”,美文赏析 地铁超人韦斯利
