问题     It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Don’t the top men in industry earn【B1】______salaries for the services they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign【B2】______— often more than large industrial concerns — and the taxman can only【B3】______their massive annual contributions to the finance. So who would envy them their rewards?
    It’s all very well for people in【B4】______jobs to moan about the successes and rewards of others. People who make【B5】______remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and【B6】______a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be【B7】______what he can earn. But a man who attempts to become a star is taking enormous risk. He knows at the outset that only a【B8】______of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows years of concentrated effort may【B9】______complete failure. But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the rewards for the huge risks involved and if he achieves them, he has certainly earned them. That’s the【B10】______of private enterprise.
【B8】
