Ⅲ.Compose an essay (60 points)

In some society sports and entertainment stars have higher value than professional workers like doctors, nurses and teachers. Do you think it is a good or bad social phenomenon? Write a short argumentative essay about 300 words to discuss this social phenomenon. In your writing, give a title, underline your thesis and number your paragraphs.

Who have higher value: stars or professionals?

①Nowadays, athletes and movie stars in' some society make more money more quickly

than professionals such as doctors, nurses and school teachers. Though this seems no fair to many people, there are good reasons for such phenomenon. By laws of market, the higher demand for certain goods or services, the higher value such-goods or services would have. Movie stars or famous athletes entertain a nation or even the whole world.

They satisfy the needs of very large populations with greater efficiency than medical professionals or teachers, who usually work for one hospital or school. As a result, stars are able to create greater value for their employers and deserve higher income.

②However, I think that the real value of many stars is superficial. Unlike other professionals,

stars are made to cater the constantly changing pop culture. No matter how popular they are now, the stars would be forgotten as time goes by. Professionals like doctors and teachers create the true value for their society. Their experience and knowledge drive our society forward. By contrast, stars create demand and make their fortune mainly by making news to attract attention.

③Due to the powerful influences of show business, many young people are more interested

in getting famous and rich overnight than working hard in more worthy professions. Such ideas and action would make young people throw away their ambition to become good doctors or lawyers.

④To conclude, the value of stars is more superficial and does not form the real valve of a

society. The true value of our world is created by people with real knowledge and skills like doctors and teachers. We should not encourage young people to waste time and money being stars instead of working hard to be someone more useful to their society.
