Professional athletes, such football andbasketball players, do not deserve the high salaries that they are paid.
When reading a sports and entertainmentmagazine, you will never fail to be shocked by the extremely luxuriouslifestyle of some sports stars. Some people maintain that sports players shouldnot get such huge number of salaries, as they are not so competitive with otherexperts, such as scientists and painters, in terms of contributions. Whereasfrom my point of view, professional athletes definitely deserve the highsalaries for all the effort they make, high risk in the games and considerablyshorter career.
Some people hold the view that players don’tdeserve the high salary as they are paid because of the less effort they havemade. These people only see the glorious side of the athletes while ignoretheir hard payment. As a successful athlete, one must come through a long wayof pains and sorrows, endure a whole winter of struggle before his/her springof success. For instance, Yao, the famous and successful basketball player inChina, began to play basketball at age of 6 and practiced more than 8 hoursevery day until then could he become the leader of Chinese basketball.
Another reason is that being a professionalathlete is definitely of high risk and it’s easy for them to get hurt, such asfootball and basketball players. According to a recent survey, every year thereare thousands of players get hurt in the contests and training. To make thingseven worse, some of them are so heavily hurt that can never play sports anymore. For example, Tfoud was once a famous football player in England while hehurt his left foot in a game in 1975, after which he could no longer playfootball and even could not run as fast as normal people. The example of Tfoudis only a typical one while it is widely acknowledged that attendingcompetition is not safe. Once taking the high risk into consideration, we caneasily understand and accept the high salaries they earned.
When it comes to the length of athletes’ career,almost athletes can only show themselves in the playground before 40 years oldor even early. In the other words, when they are old, the physical conditiondoes not allow them to run as fast as before. What occurs inevitably is thatthe fresh blood replaces the old. On the hand, they don’t have any otherskills, which results from contributing all their time to sports when they areyoung, to make a living. Thereby, a high salary is reasonable for theirrelatively shorter career.
Although the high salaries can be explainedby the three factors above, the sports stars, as members of the society, shouldassume their parts of obligations to promote the development of their country.Anyway, an athlete, especially the famous, should strive to set a good examplefor the society instead of being a big spender.
总体写得很不错 局部地方需要修改 1 Some people maintain that sports players should not get such huge number of salaries, as they are unable to make a contribution to the world as much as other experts do, such as scientists and painters.
