In students' daily talks, celebrities are usually a hot topic, including their dress, behavior, families and other personal things. Then, is it a celebrity job to be a good role model? Please read the following students' debate.

Is it a celebrity’s job to be a good role model?

It's a celebrity job to be a good role model because people usually look up to stars. If a celebrity drinks and smokes, his fans will follow him because they look up to the celebrity so much. If a celebrity's lifestyle is inappropriate for kids, then their parents should be more careful about what they let their kids see.

I think everyone should try to be a good role model, even if you are not a celebrity! You can still be a role model to your sisters and brothers a younger neighbor, or anyone. But I be very good because they are role models for so many people !

A celebrity doesn't have to try to be a good role model. They are famous because they worked hard at what they love for a living. They should, however, try to make good choices for themselves, not their fans. Lots of stars have to post apology letters after being caught doing bad things. It's good, but if the only reason they do is to win back their fans, it's not good

Although it is a wonderful thing to be a good role model, that's not what the celebrities must do. They are famous because they love what they do and are good at it. Being a role model is never in the job. If the celebrity knows they are affecting the young people, they should try hard to set a good example.

1.Which of the following reasons is Not from the pros?

A.People usually look up to stars.

B.Everyone should try to be a good role model.

C.Although it is a wonderful thing to be a role model, that's not what the celebrities must do.

D.Celebrities are role models for so many people.

2.What does the underlined word “ inappropriate ” mean?

A.难以言说的 B.非同寻常的 C.不恰当的 D.难以置信的

3.According to the cons, how do some people become famous?

A.By working hard at what they love. B.By setting a good example to others.

C.By making good choices for themselves. D.By winning the love of their fans.

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to their words?

A.It is easy for stars to win back fans,

B.Celebrities should apologize to the public.

C.Stars may sometimes do something wrong.

D.Family members should encourage kids to be stars.

5.What conclusion(结论)can we draw from their opinions?

A.When you become a celebrity, you have been a good role model, too.

B.Even though a celebrity makes mistakes, young people should follow him.

C.Parents shouldn’t allow kids to look up to stars.

D.Whether a celebrity is a role model or not, he should care about his behavior.

I used to work in a lab for almost 10 years. It was a well-paid job, and a “ not exactly ” exciting but safe job. Then everything changed in 1998 when my best friend introduced me to a man who wanted to open up a computer training school.

What did he want me to do?

Teach!

Me? Teach? Is he mad?

They knew I had a speech problem. I stuttered.

For me a simple sentence was going to take longer than it should. “Hello, how are you doing?” can take you 3 seconds, where it would take me 10 seconds. And someone asked me if I wanted to stand in front of strangers and speak about computer technology.

Then the most amazing thing happened

I said yes!

To this day I’m still not sure why I said yes. Maybe I didn’t want to live a “safe” life where I did the same thing every day, year after year.

I have always felt I know a better way to describe difficult concepts to listeners than a lot of other people. I'm good at explaining things when I write about it. So I took the class syllabus (教学大纲）and rewrote it MY WAY! I did all I could to make it easier to understand.

In my first class I got the familiar funny looks from people when I started speaking. But after 15 minutes, people were asking intelligent questions that showed they understood. At the end of the class when people were leaving, they shook my hand and thanked me.

You won't get THAT from a “not exactly exciting but safe job”！

1.The writer thought his job in the lab was 　　　　　　 .

A.well-paid and safe B.safe and exciting

C.safe and challenging D.well-paid but challenging

2.The writer uses the example of “Hello, how are you doing?” to show 　　　　　　 .

A.what his speech problem was B.his speech problem was gone

C.his speech problem got better D.how he fought his speech problem

3.As for the class syllabus, the writer 　　　　　　 .

A.deleted the difficult concepts in it B.couldn’t fully understand it first

C.wrote it again in his own way D.explained it to his friend first

4.The writer knew the students understood his class from their 　　　　　　 .

A.smiles B.questions C.funny looks D.thank-you letters

5.What's the best title for the passage?

A.My best friend B.My fantastic class

C.My speech problem D.My challenging choice
