【话题分类】

社会生活类

【题目解析】

题目大意：专业性较强的工作，如医生、护士和教师，对社会有更大的贡献，因此应当比运动员、娱乐明星收入更高。你是否同意这个观点？

【难点】题目的课题具有较大的争议性，大部分同学都很难快速形成清晰的立场。如果题目只是简单的问‘专业较强的工作是否应该收入更高？’或者‘运动员、娱乐明星是否收入过高了？’，是比较容易回答的。但两者收入之间的比较，需要更多维度的考虑，要快速切入的话，同学们可以采用一边倒的思路，或者认为两者应该收入平等。更容易展开。

【写作思路】

开头段：指出两种职业的收入差距现象，转述题目的观点，并表示个人赞同。

主体第一段：论述专业工作对社会产生的价值与他们获得的认可之间的不均衡；通过几种典型职业举例说明。

主体第二段：认可要想成为职业运动员和演艺明星确实需要付出很多的努力，也有一些人对社会做出了较大贡献。但大部分的人所获得的与他们的贡献不平衡，尤其是一些不尊重个人职业及公众的人。

结尾段：强调这种收入差距的不合理，重申观点。

【参考范文】

Professional athletes and entertainment celebrities are often considered to be overpaid, and their value overrated, especially when compared with people working in some socially significant professions, such as medical and education field. Some people argue that the latter should be paid more, because of their contribution to society. I personally agree and believe that the average annual earning of professional workers should be higher than that of people working in sports and show business. 

It is easy to justify why professional workers deserve a higher salary at large. Take teaching for example, which is one of the most economically important occupations because our future economy relies on the education of the youth, yet teachers are paid astronomically less than the average professional athlete is. The situation is the same for doctors, police officers, firefighters, who save lives while risking their own for a fraction of what sports stars, actors and singers make. Similarly, people in the military leave their families at home to defend and protect the country knowing they may never return. It's truly a pity that none of these true heroes are given the same recognition by society as athletes and entertainment stars.

I have to acknowledge that becoming pros in sports and show business is not an easy quest, and that it takes a tremendous number of hours of hard work and dedication to earn a job in these fields. It is also undeniable that a number of celebrities have made use of their fame and fortune to influence the society in a positive way, proving their worthiness. However, a large percentage of sports and entertaining stars fail to justify the fame and fortune unfairly bestowed upon them. Instead, many take it for granted, overlooking the fact that they are public figures whose behaviors and beliefs would project tremendous power over the public, especially the young generation. Some go to extremes or become law breakers, such as using illegal substances, in pursuit of financial benefits. 

To sum up, the income disparity between professional workers and sporting and entertaining legends is hardly justifiable. While admitting the contribution of a portion of these famous figures, I believe most of them are overpaid and people who work in socially important fields need to have more recognition in financial terms.
