Modern society excels in cynicism. Academics and pseudo-academies delight in deconstructing even the most cherished of childhood delights, seemingly determined to rob us【C1】______the pure joy of fantasy. Forget the super villain. For our superheroes, most【C2】______ (death)adversaries are the post-modern academics. For example, a book published in 2002 debates the science behind " Superman, " the world’s most famous【C3】fic______superhero: The Science of Superheroes by Lois Gresh and Robert Weinberg.
According to Gresh and Weinberg, when superheroes were created, little or no attention was paid to the【C4】______(feasible)of their powers and how they could possibly interact with ordinary objects and people. In effect, their thesis appears to be that the science behind superheroes is totally incorrect. Gresh and Weinberg seem to take great delight in debunking superheroes, Superman in particular, in their book, arguing with great effectiveness concerning how impossible it would be for Superman to ever be a【C5】______(real). They point out that the laws of physics are broken time and time again in the Superman story. It would be impossible for him, for example, to perform such stupendous feats of super strength, such as holding cars, trains, and even planes in the air. How, they ask, could he possibly【C6】st______perfectly balanced on Earth while moving a mass far greater than his own over his head?
However, is there really any value to be found in dissecting fantasy characters such as these? After all, the【C7】______(intend)of the fantasy is to entertain and automatically requires that the audience suspend their disbelief. When James Bond, Ethan Hunt, or any of the super spies, perform astounding feats of an impossible physical nature we do not care, we simply enjoy.【C8】______would that matter to any child, or even adult, who simply enjoys the stories? Remember this is not educational material but purely entertainment. Why【C9】spo______the fun? Let Superman , Spiderman, Batman and all the other superheroes continue to bring joy and even inspiration to those who love them and let us leave science to deal【C10】______everyday life, which is so rarely quite as fascinating as the world of our favourite childhood heroes.
