2015年秋季MBA英语英译汉练习附答案（1）
In almost every form of media, including television, newspapers andmagazines, a great deal of attention is paid to the personal lives of
celebrities. It seems that the public cannot get enough of this kind of news.
However, I believe that the media have a responsibility to present a balanced
view of the world, as well as respect the lives of public figures. Therefore, I
believe that the media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous
people.
For people who are fascinated with the lives of public figures there are
some forms of media devoted exclusively to this topic. They can satisfy their
curiosity by buying fan magazines and watching TV shows devoted to entertainment
news. The general media should present all types of information because people
have different interests. Furthermore, the practice of dwelling on the private
lives of celebrities can lead people to pay more attention to these matters than
they otherwise would. Perhaps most importantly, the media should respect the
privacy of every individual, including public figures. They may have chosen to
be in the public eye, but that does not give the public the right to know
everything about them. Moreover, many stories about celebrities are untrue; they
are only gossip reported to increase sales of magazines and other media. They
are unfair to the famous and mislead the public.
For all of these reasons, I believe that the media should pay more
attention to matters other than the private lives of public figures. In this
way, they can appeal to a wider audience and encourage people to develop other
interests. In my opinion, the media currently pay too much attention to the
private lives of public figures.
