1. In recent years，the topic whether it is fair for athletes to pocket large sums of money has aroused more and more discussion. Those who support giving sportsmen high salaries think that athletes have won a great reputation for our country in the Olympic Games. What's more，athletes must undergo painstaking physical and psychological training. Besides，they offer a lot of encouragement to young people to take part in physical activities. However，some people have different ideas. They consider that athletes do little to boost the national economy directly. Thus they should not receive so much money. I believe that they should get high salaries，considering all the efforts they have made.
