　　核心单词 — celebrity

　　参考表达

　　Agree

　　I agree with it. They are good role models because they help the poor and raise public awareness of anti-bullying.For example, my favorite singer and actor Jackson yi. He played a role in the movie “better you”. The movie is about school bullying, suggesting that all the people including teenagers and adults, teachers and parents should take this problem seriously. It is a successful and positive movie.

　　The media do not realize the good they do but they always try to capture the inappropriate things they do. Instead，the media should tell the children all the good they do so that they do it too, not the bad.

　　Life will not shield children from the horrors that do exist in the world. Celebrities that make some mistakes are no different from any other human being.

　　Disagree

　　I don't think celebrities are good examples for young people. Even though they might seem good in public, they have their habits and sometimes their influence can affect many young children, leading them in the wrong direction.

　　For example, reality TV show is dishonest. It pretends to show "reality", but it actually twists the truth to suit the program. The shows are not really "real". Instead, they are carefully cast to get a mix of "characters". Mostly they show a bunch of young, good-looking self-publicists, who will do anything to get on TV. Selective editing may be used to create "storylines".

　　I think we should let the young people be who they really are, not teach them to be who are popular to the majority.
