Do you think teachers should be paid as much as doctors, lawyers, and business leaders.

It has always been my belief that being a teacher is one of the most inspirational careers amongst all the jobs.Even though many people may tend to categorize teachers as generic people who only deserve plain wages, however,I strongly advocate that teachers should get paid as much as doctors,lawyers and business leaders.

First of all,teachers have always been playing a very significant role in society and they are believed to be the vital medium for knowledge.Teachers convey the knowledge so selflessly from themselves to countless numbers of students,which have had a very positive impact on them and lead them towards every aspects of social roles.From this standpoint,teachers have made almost made the identical contribution to the human society as lawyers andand business leaders.In this sense,they definitely deserve the credit for higher payment.

In addition to that,to be a teacher especially a good teacher takes a lot of efforts as well as pains.If you want to be an excellent teacher,not only should you prepare yourself for gaining sufficient knowledge for the specific area you are teaching,you should also have a good teaching methodology which can be succefully applied to your class.Therefore it's a combination of the knowledge and the way of presenting and disseminating it.What's more,it's also crucial for teachers to be aware that students with different interest or understanding level may react differently to the materials they present, so sometimes teachers need to reevaluate their methods over and over again for the better understanding of their students.

Last but not least,being a good teacher means one has to sacrifice a lot of personal time.For instance when I was in high school, some of my teachers spent a lot of extra time tutoring some of us who didn't understand the lecture well even after class. In this sense, teachers especially those dedicated ones should defintiely be compensated by favorable salary somehow.

It's the teachers who have helped us walk through the gate to the hall of knowledge and encourged us to realize and pursue our personal goals.Their spirits should be spoken highly of and their act should be awarded.Combining all those reasons,I am more than sure to advocate that teachers should be paid as much as doctors,lawyers and business leaders.

Is it better to watch serious movies that make you think,or watch movies that's designed primarily to amuse and entertain you


Movies have been one of the crucial part of the human life since the day when it was born in the world.With its artistic depiction of the human world which makes our life more enriching,we can gain a variety of new perspectives as well as entertain ourselves as well.However,when it comes to the genre of the movies,people usually argue which type of movie they should spend more time on.Are we supposed to watch movies which trigger us to ponder over them or is it more beneficial to simply extract joy from those entertainment-oriented movies?As for this dilemma,my personal opinion is more biased toward the first option based on my understanding of the movies.

Firstly,I think the movies themselves are designed to mainly reflect the human society in more of an artistic way.Therefore by watching the movies we should always be motivated to compare them with the real world itself.Good movies are usually reflective and instructive, even though it may seem to be boring sometimes.Nevertheless, just through these tedious procedures can we gain the maximal comprehension of the topic of the specific movies,which is exactly what the movie directors are trying to convey to the audiences. Upon reaching this purpose,we can live up to the expecations of the movie makers to the full.


In addition,serious movies with human-touch subjects are always very inspirational and sometimes can even touch the deepest part of our inner mindset.In this sense,it's really worthwhile to watch the plots in the movies which we may empathize with.And usually these plots are always part of the serious movies,which can be one of the most attractive part of them.And more than often this resonance will lead us to thinking deeper about both the movies and our lives.And from my standpoint,it's a very precious exeprience to go through all the process.

What's more,even though we can watch entertaining movies sometimes,but that shouldn't be the only reason for us to go to cinema.It's certain that by watching relaxing and humorous movies we can both free our mind and relax ourselves, but what really matters is that how much we can gain by doing that.As for students like me,spending too much time laughing over those commedies is just a pure waste of time because the opportunity cost is way beyond it. On the contrary immersing ourselves in the serious movies can really engender a lot of benefits for ourselves.

Therefore,based on the several reasons,serious movies should definitely be on our favorite item simply because it's more reflective and it has more resonnance with us,in the meantime,it can promote our studies and life for a better direction.
