这是一个经典的议论文题目，而RE3 UNIT 1 第二篇文章讲的就是关于运动员的，希望对你打开思路会有启发。 

(RE3的文章长度越来越长了）

总结一下课文， 是什么造就了奥运冠军？

 1. 基因---- 身体因素（举例：快速抽动肌肉纤维/ 慢速抽动肌肉纤维） 2. 基因--- 身高（举例：高个子的适合游泳， 而体操需要个子更小而灵活）   3.环境因素--- 地理因素（举例：高海拔地区的人先天血液中带有更多血红蛋白，使得身体更适宜跑步。  环境因素还包括文化方面。   4. 坚持不懈的训练和练习 （举例：跳水运动员）

今天我利用这篇RE3的文章， 来写一下这篇议论文， 中间我引用了这篇课文里举的例子。 

Are professional athletes overpaid?

专业运动员的收入过高吗？

Are professional athletes overpaid?

BY  蜜雪老师

When it comes to the topic of whether professional athletes worth such inflated income, some people hold the opinion of opposition when it is frustrating to hear someone earn such a large salary by playing a game . In my opinion, to some extent, they do worth the income, If you look at it objectively.

当谈到职业运动员是否值得如此多的收入时，通过一场比赛就赚这么多钱，听起来令很多普通人沮丧，他们持反对意见。在我看来，在某种程度上，如果你客观地看待，他们确实值得这样的收入。

When the public look at professional athletes’ salaries, it’s easy to say they make far too much money for playing a game. After all, athletes earn more money than teachers, doctors and members of the military. More than half the people in the United States make less than $62,000 a year, which seems tempting to think it is not fair for those athletes receive millions of dollars merely to entertain. 

当公众看到职业运动员的薪水时，很容易说他们打一场比赛赚的钱太多了。毕竟，运动员比教师、医生和军人挣得多得多。在美国，超过一半的人年收入不到6.2万美元，这似乎让人忍不住认为，那些仅仅为了娱乐大众就获得数百万美元收入的运动员是不公平的。

Nevertheless,  it’s important to remember that those athletes aren’t the only people who get the money in this process. They’re an essential part of enormously profitable companies. For example, The National Football League, and the National Basketball Association generate billions of dollars in revenue. Without the players, the leagues wouldn’t exist. Players’ salaries are simply their certain share of all the cash these hugely successful businesses bring in. Plus, not to mention the other parties that are greatly benefit , such as sponsorship. 

然而，重要的是要记住，这些运动员并不是唯一能拿到钱的人， 他们只是利润丰厚的公司的重要组成部分。例如，美国国家橄榄球联盟和美国国家篮球协会产生了数十亿美元的收入。没有球员，联盟就不会存在。球员的工资只是他们从这些巨大成功的企业所带来的现金流中所占的一定份额。另外，更不用提其他的获益方，例如赞助商。

Moreover, the way to become a pro athlete takes hard work of more then a decade. Most athletes began arduous training at young age and it’s hard for ordinary people to imagine the tedious repeated work that fill up their years. As Greg Louganis, winner of four Olympic diving gold medals, says divers must train the same thing to be prefect . “It only takes less than 3 seconds from takeoff until you hit the water, so it has to be reflex.You have to repeat the dives hundreds maybe thousands of times.”  

第二，成为职业运动员需要长达十年以上的艰苦努力。大多数运动员在很小的时候就开始了艰苦的训练，对于普通人来说，很难想象他们的岁月中所从事的单调重复的练习。曾获得四枚奥运跳水金牌的格雷格·洛加尼斯(Greg Louganis)说，跳水运动员要想成为完美选手，就必须反复训练一个动作。“从起飞到出水只需要不到3秒的时间，所以必须是反射性的。你必须重复上千上万次。”

In addition, a pro athlete needs to be extremely tough not only physically, not also mentally. Normal people couldn’t handle the training loads , not to mention the psychological pressure. They need to be able to adjust to such intense anxiety in order to manage to perform their best in the limelight . On the other hand, think about the tremendous amount of frustration if they fail the public’s great expectations. As a result these people are especially prone to depression and emotional disorder. Thus in my opinion, those who can shoulder the most difficulty should gain the biggest returns. 

此外，一名职业运动员不仅在身体上，而且在精神上，都需要极其艰苦的训练。正常人无法承受这种训练的负荷，更不用说心理压力了。他们需要能够适应这种强烈的焦虑，以便在聚光灯下表现得最好。另一方面，想想如果他们辜负了公众的期望，会有多大的挫败感。因此，这些人特别容易抑郁和情绪紊乱。因此在我看来，那些能承担最大困难的人应该得到最大的回报。

Last but not least, when we judge people’s income, it is sensible to think from the contribution of bigger aspects. Those pro athletes enhance not only the image of the team , but more importantly the reputation of a country. They are also constitute a major part of the public ’s spiritual life, which means a lot to the whole society. 

最后，当我们判断人们的收入时，理智的做法应该是从更大的方面来考虑。这些职业运动员不仅提高了球队的形象，更重要的是提高了一个国家的声誉。他们也是我们公众精神生活的重要组成部分，对整个社会意义重大。

In sum, I believe for those who put in years of hard work and demanding training deserve every penny they earn. It still takes luck and multiple factors to be the one who stands out from a thousand , leaving countless still struggling. 

总而言之，我相信对于那些多年辛勤工作和严格训练的人来说，他们挣的每一分钱都是值得的。况且，成功仍然需要运气和多种因素，才能从上千人中脱颖而出，留下无数仍在挣扎的人。
