Rich and Famous

Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher， followed by working in banking and finance， and then medicine． But today's situation is quite different．1. Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star, a pop star， or an actor-in other words，they hope to become a celebrity ．

According to experts， young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame．2. Let's take athletes and singers as an example. Their careers are short-lived． Many athletes' best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career． The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in． As a result， they'll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control．3. The truth is quite simple： they have been so far removed from it for so long．

In spite of these disadvantages， there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status． They are not satisfied just making a living-they want to be rich and famous． Globally， more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months．4. They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction．

While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions， others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals．5.That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success． As a result， many people won't realize their childhood dreams， which could have a negative effect on their happiness．

A． The younger generation don't favor these professions any more．

B． In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture．

C． Unfortunately， they do not always have a positive effect on people's life．

D． Besides， it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life．

E． People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved．

F． This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people．

G． The reason is that they don't realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous．
