134. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Children should be required to help with household tasks as soon as they are able to do so. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
When it comes to the issue whether children should be required to help with household tasks as soon as they are able to do so, different people hold different views. If I were faced with this question, I would probably say children should help with household tasks as soon as possible. In the following discussion, I would like to present a few of important reasons to support my opinion.
The most important reason that we cannot neglect is that helping parents do some household tasks is good for you independence in the future. Household tasks build living skills to children. Every child will grow up to be an adult, and one day they will leave their parents to start their own family life. If they don’t know how to clean the room, how to wash the clothes, how to cook a meal, then how can they survive? Don’t you think it is terrible? My parents taught me do a lot of household tasks since I was a child. So after I went aboard, I could arrange my life orderly. Although I met some trouble, I could solve them quickly by myself. Don't you think this example is very persuasive?
Another head and chief reason that I have chosen to put here is that children helping with household tasks will relieve parents’ stress. Nowadays, it is common for both parents to work. When they back home, they also have more work to do. Life is stressful and there is no time for fun. Children can share and do some simple household tasks with their parents, such as picking up their own rooms, feeding the pets, sweeping the floor, or placing the plates on the dinner table. Then the family can relax together, parents will feel better because you grow up and understand how hard they are.
Last but not the least is responsibility, children will learn it from helping with household tasks. My friend’s five-year-old boy always throws his toys everywhere, but he never tidies them up. I think my friend will require her son to pick up toys himself after he plays. Because this can make him know that he must be responsible for the thing what he does. Don’t you have the same thought with me?
To sum up, given all the reasons discussed above, we can safely reach the conclusion that children should be required to help with household tasks as soon as possible. Because it is not only helpful to themselves but also beneficial to other person, especially their family.
162. Some famous athletes and entertainers earn millions of dollars every year. Do you think these people deserve such high salaries? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
When it comes to the issue whether the famous athletes and entertainers should earn millions of dollars every year, different people hold different views. If I were faced this question, I would probably say that they should deserve such high salaries. In the following discussion, I would like to reason and provide evidence to support my opinion.
The most important reason that I cannot neglect is that most of athletes and entertainers have very short careers. As we all know, most athletes retire when they reach 35 years old. Because at this age, they are unable to jump and run like young athletes are. The trouble of age is also puzzled to the entertainers. Can you imagine that a 50-year-old hoopster plays basketball in the NBA game or a 40-year-old actress plays an 18-year-old role? Many of them gamble early in their lives on making it big in the sports or entertainment world which prevent them gaining a good education. They have little chance to find a stable career after they retire, so they need to earn enough money to support them for a long time. If you can understand this, you can understand my view better.
Another head and chief reason that I have chosen to put here is that it is hard to become a famous athlete or entertainer. The competition is fierce. There are thousands of people who want to be a famous athlete or entertainer, but how many of them will achieve their dreams and succeed at last? For example, I watched a program about selecting “America Idol” recently. Thousands of young American entered for this contest, but only one could win at last. How cruel for this elimination game. So if you want to be a famous athlete or entertainer, not only you have a talent but also you must pay much more than a normal person. Don’t you think this is why they would deserve much more money than a normal person?
Last but not the least is that they bring fun and honour to people. Life is stressful, so people need fun. We like watching the performances of entertainers or athletes on TV after we back home. Also in the Olympic Games, when our athletes win the champion, they bring honour to our country at the same time. Don’t they gain much more award?
To sum up, given all the reasons discussed above. We can safely reach the conclusion that some famous athletes and entertainers should earn millions of dollars every year. Because not everyone can reach the achievement like them, they gain what they pay.
