注:Beckham(貝克漢姆):英國足球明星。
As is vividly depicted in the photos above, Beckham, the smart British football superstar, is enjoying a striking popularity among the adolescents. In the first picture, Beckhams name appears on a young mans face. The caption indicates that worship for the idol is written on the face. In the second photo, another young man is doing Beckhams chic hairstyle in a barbershop. We are informed that he is spending 300 yuan imitating his idols haircut.
Undoubtedly, the pictures have subtly reflected the social phenomenon that idol worship is prevalent among the teenagers nowadays. Beckham represents the image of sport hero whose handsome appearance and unparalleled football skills are passionately adored by all the sports fans. Likewise, several teenage girls won their fame overnight in The 2005 Super Girl Contest in China, which provoked nationwide noisy debates on the value and harm of admiring these idols. Briefly speaking, young people are inclined to idolize the people who excel in appearance, intelligence or talent.
Hence, idolatry, the thought-provoking social phenomenon, is a double-edged sword which can exert profound influence on the growth of young people. If we simply worship the idols by imitating their hairstyles or pursuing fashions unreasonably, the obsession will certainly waste us a great deal of money or time, endangering the efficiency of our work. On the contrary, we will lead a positive and fruitful life if we endeavor to improve ourselves by bridging the gap between our models and us. Accordingly, the latter attitude should be adopted to direct our way of life.
以上的照片生動地顯示出來,相貌英俊的英國足球巨星貝克漢姆在年輕人中廣受歡迎。在第一張照片中,貝克漢姆的名字出現在一個年輕人的額頭上。文字表明:對偶像的崇拜寫在了臉上。在第二張照片中,這個年輕人正在理發店中做貝克漢姆的時髦發型。我們得到的信息是他正花300元來模仿偶像的發式。
毫無疑問,照片巧妙地反映了這樣一個社會現象:偶像崇拜目前在青年人中非常盛行。貝克漢姆代表了體育界英雄的形象,他的英俊外表以及高超的球技正是球迷們熱情追捧的。同樣,2005年中國舉辦的超級女生大賽中,幾個十幾歲的女孩一夜成名。圍繞著崇拜這些偶像的意義和危害,這個事件激起了全國性的爭論。總之,青年人往往容易崇拜那些在外表、才華和特長方面極其出色的人。
在我看來,偶像崇拜這個發人深思的社會現象,其實是把雙刃劍,可以深刻影響青年人成長。如果我們只是靠模仿偶像發型或追逐時尚的方式來崇拜他們,這種癡迷將必定浪費我們大量的金錢和時間,影響我們的工作效率。相反,如果我們靠彌補我們和榜樣之間的差距來努力提高自己,我們就會過一種積極和收獲顯著的生活。因此,我們應當采取后面一種態度來指引我們的人生。
