问题     When the marriage of Andy Lau, a famous Hong Kong superstar, has been revealed to the public, it has whipped up a raging debate over whether the privacy of famous people should be protected. Some believe the exposure of their privacy is immoral, while others believe it’s just part of being a star and his/her deserved destiny. What’s your opinion?
    Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
    Should the Media Reveal the Privacy of Celebrities?
选项
答案 Should the Media Reveal the Privacy of Celebrities? The privacy of celebrities has long been an issue that sparks fierce debate. Many people argue that famous people should have a price to pay for their high salaries and luxurious life. In spite of that, I believe the media should be discouraged from hounding celebrities for their privacy. Undoubtedly, it is really difficult to quench the desire of journalists and the public for the anecdotes and even lousy stories of famous people. However, celebrities are human beings in the first place and they are also entitled to privacy, the fundamental human right. They are ordinary people in the supermarket when doing their weekly food shopping. Their pain will be exacerbated due to constant exposure of their broken family. As a man, privacy is just a necessity. On the other hand, the media are now going too far by revealing intimate photos and stories about their romances and failing marriages. It has become a harassment to celebrities, hurting them and even their families. In many cases, it is not just the violation of privacy but malicious slander and therefore must be regulated. In conclusion, laws are needed to state what is acceptable in revealing activities of celebrities. Although famous people, who are constantly in the public eye, will never expect that no one talks to them when they go shopping, a boundary does exist, beyond which they will be hurt.
解析     本题是一个对比选择型题目，提出了两种观点：媒体可以曝光名人隐私和媒体不能曝光名人隐私。要求考生选择其中一个观点，并用自己的想法或经历对此问题进行分析比较，然后给出理由进行论证。
    思路1：媒体可以曝光名人隐私。
    首先公众对名人的日常活动和花边新闻的兴趣不会减退，其次媒体不会放弃其中的巨大利润，并且名人在成名的那一刻起，在获得名誉和金钱的同时就意味着必须付出一定的代价。
    思路2：媒体不能曝光名人隐私。
    首先，隐私权是每个人应有的权利，不应被剥夺。其次，对于名人来讲，表演只是他们的职业，和很多人一样，名人也需要有工作以外的私生活。如果记者如此穷追不舍，他们的正常生活也不能保证。另外，一些媒体如今所披露的内容有些过分，甚至伤害到了明星及其家人。
    范文选取了思路2，从整体结构看，先讨论保护名人隐私确实很困难，然后再解释保护隐私权的必要性。
