17、g young people but also envied by many middle-aged men, who long for wealth. An internationally renowned tennis player could make 100 million US dollars a year, an amount average people could not even dream about. However, I think sports professionals deserve this high pay.

24、e sense of social responsibility, we would extend our helping hands to those in need, and we would feel nice and warm in the society.
