7、2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： It seems that money is always a companion of fame. Among the high-income groups, many owe their large revenues to fame, such as writers, singers and sports stars. One may ask, why do famous people tend to have higher incomes? For one thing, I believe, the fame of the celebrities pr
8、ovides them with more opportunities to earn money than common people. For another, the celebrities do not get their fame for no reason. They usually become distinguished for an outstanding ability, like extraordinary writing or singing gifts, which is apt to reward them with a respectable income. So
9、me people think its unfair that famous people get rich easier. But in my opinion, to include fame as an income factor is an inevitable tendency.

12、d higher education are more likely to achieve success than people who havent, for their broader vision, larger social network, as well as better opportunities. Therefore, a university education should be encouraged. However, a university education is definitely not the only decisive factor of being
13、successful. At the same time, we cant ignore other important factors of success, such as gifts, diligence and other conditions. In a word, I dont think university education is useless. University education should continue to be promoted. However, we should also keep in mind that ones success doesnt

In other words, challenging goals that are more difficult to realize can inspire people to keep working harder and do their best. The Wright Brothers dreamed of making a flying machine for humans. It was doubted and
25、 deemed as completely crazy. However, they were determined, and eventually devised the worlds first airplane. If the Wright Brothers had had more “realistic goals, they would hardly have achieved such a success. Evidently, such ambitious dreams can also prompt the development of the whole society.
