Do Athletes and entertainers Deserve Such High Salaries?

From the chart above we can see that athletes and entertainers earn much more than writers. Yao Ming, as the most famous basketball star, is the richest while the famous writer Yu Hua has lagged far behind.

The major reason for this phenomenon is that athletes and entertainers get more attention from the public than the writers, and by taking advantages of their fames they can earn money through ads very easily. As we know, writers cannot be more popular than sports or movie stars.

Mayve some people think that this is unfair, for in their opinion, scholars should earn more than stars. But I don’t think so. First, the stars’ salary is just an indication of their hard work and fierce competition; and what’s more, the stars’ splendid career is rather short and many of them have to retire even before their thirties. Finally, the stars bring us so much pleasure and fun, and release us form stressful life. To sum up, they indeed deserve what they have got.

点评

这是一篇图表作文题。文章第一段描述表格，得出结论：体育、娱乐明星收入远远超过作家。

第二段具体分析了产生这种现象的原因。注意The reason for sth. Is that 结构，用来陈述原因。

第三段进行总结，说明明星获得高收入的原因，指出他们对此当之无愧。

注意连接词First, what’more, Finally,To sum up的使用，使得文章结构更加紧凑，行文流畅。
