人人都爱名人

提示

　　现今年轻人崇拜偶像名人是一种不可避免的趋势，因此如何教导年轻人由名人身上得到一些正面启示便成为一个刻不容缓的课题，请以 "Everyone Loves Celebrities" 为题，写一篇文长至少 120 个单词（words）的文章，表达偶像名人对年轻人的影响力。文分两段，第一段点出名人对年轻人的重要性，第二段则列举名人对年轻人可能会有哪些好的及不好的影响。

审题

偶像名人对年轻人的影响可谓相当深远，因为他们的一言一行都可能成为年轻人争相模仿的对象。基于此原因，名人们更应该要多注意自己的行为举止，以期能成为年轻人的正面教材。

根据提示，可知本篇作文是论说文。论说文的目的就是要说服读者接受自己的观点或看法。基本上，这种写法是要『晓之以理』而非『动之以情』。其要点如下：

1.『论点』需站得住脚，否则很难说服读者。

2.『论证』宜讲求方法，合乎逻辑。

3.『论据』要真实可靠，不可似是而非或无中生有。

在世界各地，名人对年轻人都有很大的影响。这是可以理解的，因为人们都崇拜名望、财富和成功。人们喜爱跟随演员、歌手、音乐家及运动明星那种刺激而迷人的生活。像是女神卡卡和林书豪等成功的明星吸引了大批来自世界各地的粉丝。

年轻人从名人身上可以学到好的和不好的事情。正面而言，明星可以激发及鼓舞人们去追寻他们的梦想。举例来说，人们可能会想象自己是篮球场上的柯比˙布莱恩或是电影屏幕上的汤姆‧克鲁斯。然而，人们也有可能会受到偶像一些坏习惯的负面影响，包括酗酒和滥用药物等。由于他们的重大影响力，名人们应该要试着为他们的年轻粉丝树立好的模范。
