model answer:

As a result of constant media attention, sports professionals in my country have become stars
and celebrities, and those at the top are paid huge salaries. Just like movie stars, they live
extravagant lifestyles with huge houses and cars.

Many people find their rewards unfair, especially when comparing these super salaries with
those of top surgeons or research scientists, or even leading politicians who have the
responsibility of governing the country. However, sports salaries are not determined by
considering the contribution to society a person makes, or the level of responsibility he or she
holds. Instead, they reflect the public popularity of sport in general and the level of public
support that successful stars can generate. So the notion of ‘fairness’ is not the issue.

Those who feel that sports stars’ salaries are justified might argue that the number of
professionals with real talent are very few, and the money is a recognition of the skills and
dedication a person needs to be successful. Competition is constant and a player is tested
every time they perform in their relatively short career. The pressure from the media is intense
and there is little privacy out of the spotlight. So all of these factors may justify the huge
earnings.

Personally, I think that the amount of money such sports stars make is more justified than the
huge earnings of movie stars, but at the same time, it indicates that our society places more
value on sport than on more essential professions and achievements.

Most boys must have dreamed of becoming professional baseball player once in their
life.However,the fact is that even a person who is favored by both lack and talent can
not reach their dreams.Only a few people can be succeed as a successful professional
.athletes
Basically,the better results athletes get,the more money they can earn and the more
people can enjoy it.Atheletes playing sports encourage people to be alive in their
 life.Assuming an amount of pleasures by people waching sports is proportional to an
amount of money athletes can obtain,it is even less of a surprise that they are received
such plenty of money.To explain by using business as an example,they just collect
bills which they sells in the most efficient way.They do not nothing wrong.All money
.is what they should take.If no one go to see them,of course they can make no money
From the different standpoint,we can view the mountainous pile of money with
suspicion of whether they,atheletes,really need such a lot of money.It is certainly
necessary for them to have some money to develop their physical strength,but they
reap a benefit more than their workout cost. They can make enough to live on and it is
not difficult to use their money for even their lavish life style.In this respect,it might
.be unfair
In my opinion,if you do not really like them to earn money,you should not spend your
own money on all involved sports or atheletes.Or our nation could not be free

Schools should teach children the academic subjects which
will be beneficial to their future career while other subjects
like music and sports are not important. to what extent do
you agree or disagree with this opinion?

In the modern's society world with the fierce competition, the schooling scores are more
important for schools , students and parents, therefore, they start to ignore the education
about the music and sports.i will express my strong objections as followings.
On the one hand,Students are in the growth period, it is a important age for
everyone.During one day study, they should do some sports to relax and release the
pressure.If they only know sitting in the classroom and lucubrating without any sports,
finally , they will break their bodies in the end easily.
On the other hand,it is not bad a thing to learn music in schools.As everyone knows, music
would give the students thoughts, and promote the student's physical, mental and
emotional development.If students are in trouble , in need, listen to music is a better way
to release their troubles and stresses.
Some students have a tender psychology, which cannot stand any stresses, have the
negative thoughts easily.If they dont release their stresses on time, it will give rise to
some extreme behaviours from them.So,schooling should regarded the education about
sports and education as important also, to make them study better and better.
Above all, do more extra-curricular activities, which is beneficial to students, make them
be wersatile and study better and better to contribute to societal well-being in the future.
