写作指导

1. 注意时态，用一般现在时即可。

推荐思路：四段式

Opening: 背景介绍，表达观点：名人对国际援助组织的支持确实能使人们关注问题。

Body 1: 名人对国际援助组织的支持能使人们关注问题。

支持细节1. 名人的高曝光率，使得他们参与的活动更容易被知晓。

支持细节2. 名人支持国际援助工作，树立榜样，鼓励更多人参与。

举例：Angelina Jolie支持慈善事业。

Body 2:反对者的意见。媒体关注更多的可能是名人的参与，而不是实际的援助组织。

支持细节1. 名人参与救助了，其他人觉得自己不需要做了。

支持细节2. 有些名人参与救助事业，只是为了进步*度。

Conclusion: 重申立场，总结观点：如果他们能表现出真正的关心并采取积极的行动，那么他们就能对*慈善事业做出巨大的贡献。

写作范文

It has long been noted that many celebrities, ranging from the royal members like princess Diana to Holly-wood movie stars like Audrey Hepburn, are actively involved in international aid activities.  However, this celebrity involvement has raised many disputes recently. From my perspective, famous people’s supporting for global aid organization can bring more benefits.

There is no doubt that celebrities like sports stars and singers are high-profile figures who are surrounded by reporters and paparazzi wherever they go. When they participate in charity work or advocate for some aid programs, the news spread immediately. Therefore, more people will get to know these aid organizations. Besides, when celebrities make a donation or appeal to help the needy, they set a good example for the public, especially for their fans who are keen to follow their idols’ action to help others by fundraising and other contributions. Take Angelina Jolie as an illustration. She has long been involved in humanitarian work, visiting refugee camps around the world and devoting her life to helping poor children. Her actions have successfully helped to highlight the aid organization and relevant problems.

However, those opponents indicate that it is the famous people’s involvement rather than the actual aid organization that more media attention may be given to. This can draw attention away from the real problem itself. Besides, the public may form recognition that since so many celebrities have already got involved and given substantial donations, they have no need to take a real action. What’s worse, some superstars only want to increase their fame by taking part in aid campaigns instead of conveying the intended message of organizations. Without passion, these pop stars are unlikely to take any follow-up or long-term actions. Therefore, the public will soon feel that it is just another show arranged for these pop stars, and may even develop a negative feeling towards it.

In conclusion, although there may be some negative effects, I still strongly believe that famous people’s supporting for charity activities can lead to a far-reaching influence. If they can show their genuine concern and take positive actions, they can contribute to the world charity work considerably.
