Part B 范文

There are two pictures:The first is a photo of a man’s face on which the name of the famous football player Beckham can be seen. In the second picture we can see a man in a barbershop, his hair being done in Beckham’s hair style, costing him 300 yuan.

Obviously,the two persons are fans of Beckham.These pictures, although a little exaggerating and satirical at first glance, can make us ponder: why does this phenomenon appear?As is known to all, with the development of modern communications, more and more people are influenced by some socalled “stars”. Therefore,we have many fans who run after and imitate them-film stars,athletic stars, even stars of supergirl singers. First,they do so because they admire them and want to obtain their fame and reputation. Second, although there is no denying the fact that some people do this out of pure adiration, yet, some just want to become wealthy overnight-without hard work, without sweat, just effortlessly.

Anyway, in my opinion, our government must educate our people-especially the youth-that some famous people get their reputation because they have made great contribution to our society-such as Liu Xiang. And we ourselves also must understand that their achievement is not easy job. We’d better turn our admiration into practical action to learn from them so that we can make even greater contribution to our country in the future.

译文

这里有两幅图：第一张是一个人脸上写着著名足球运动员贝克汉姆的名字。第二张我们可以看见一个人在理发店里，他让理发师按照贝克汉姆的发型给他做头发，花了300元。

很明显，这两人是贝克汉姆的崇拜者。这些图片，尽管第一眼看上去有些夸张和讽刺，仍然可以使我们深思：为什么会发生这种现象?众所周知的是：随着现代传媒的发展，越来越多的人都被这样的“明星”影响。因此，有很多追随和模仿他们的追星族——电影明星，体育明星，甚至“超女”歌星。第一，他们这样做是因为他们崇拜他们，想得到他们的名声。第二，尽管不可否认的是一些人这么做纯粹是出于崇拜，但是，也有一些人只是想一夜暴富——不需努力工作，不需流汗，只是无需努力。

以我的观点，无论如何，我们的政府都必须教育人民——尤其是年轻人—— 一些著名的人得到他们的声誉是因为他们为我们的社会做出了巨大贡献——比如刘翔。我们自己必须理解他们的成就是不容易的。我们最好将我们的崇拜转化为学习他们的实际行动，这样我们才能在将来为我们国家做出更大的贡献。
