Too much emphasis is placed on role models. Instead of copying others, people should learn to think and act independently and thus make the choices that are best for them.
------正文------
Nowadays, many successful celebrities are interviewed by the media and their success stories are well known in the world. Instead of considering that the emphasis on role models, in other words celebrities, will prevent people from thinking and acting independently, I assent that their exemplary stories boost up our morale and other people could learn from stories while apply adaptively in different situations.

Undoubtedly, some celebrities, because of their great breakthrough and contribution, have motivated thousands of youngsters in their studies and careers. In many cases, they are the first to successfully achieve the target that was considered to be impossible to attain previously. Their success will inspire others to achieve dreams which may also be considered as impossible. Xiang, Liu, the most famous Chinese athlete, has won the gold metal of 100 meter hundles in the Athens Olympic Games. People have a opinion which last for a very long time that the black people possess the overwhelming advantages in sprint and it is impossible for Asians to have an excellent result in the sprint. And in facts, before Xiang, Liu, no other Asians could win the medal in the sprint. The significance of Xiang, Liu's success not only lies in the refutation of the traditional opinion, but also motivate other Asians in sprints or who are willing to devote themselves in this field. The advent of Xiang, Liu makes them confident that if they could practice more with scientific coaching, they also have the possibility to succeed. So it could be seen that the role model could be a striking motivation force that impels people to move forward.

Besides, the role model's examples provide indispensable traits to the success for others. The story of the role model, will disclose the reason why he or she could obtain the outstanding result and effect of other factors, like outside environment, supports from friends and chances that could help achieve the result. From learning all these traits, other people could apply in their own situations. Dells, whose marketing strategy is the direct sales which makes his business prospective tells us that the advantage of direct sales and how to utilize it to make a fortune. Once realizing the advantage of low cost and intimate contact with customers that the direct sales could bring, businessmen afterward develops the concept of network marking, introducing and delivering the product directly to customers by his sales team which is popular in the skin care market. Not surprisingly, in the lecture of MBA courses, many real case studies of some giant companies are discussed. And experts have proved that it is the most efficient way to learn from those who are successful. So the role model could leave the precious experience which may provide a great help for followers.

Of course, people who copy ways that lead to role models' success without change abandon the independent thinking and acts. Past evidences have already proved that they will fail definitely. Different environment, different policies will make the exact role models' method obsolete. Bill Gates began to succeed at developing the operation system for the computer. At that time, there was nearly no competition in that area and a great potential lied in this field. However, if somebody still try to succeed by developing a new operation system, he will have much less chances to win over Microsoft since Microsoft has conquered the whole market and it is very advance now. Obviously, Bill Gate's way is outdated and can not lead to the success by simply copying without change. And this analogy is prevailing in any other field.

To sum up, role models have many advantages and people who absorb the relevant trait with dependent thinking could benefit a lot.

Nowadays, many successful celebrities are interviewed by the media and their success stories are well known spread in the world. Instead of considering-->consenting to the notion that that the emphasis on role models, in other words celebrities(delete it! this phrase is otiose), will prevent people from thinking and acting independently, I assent that their exemplary stories boost up our morale and other people could learn from stories while apply adaptively in different situations.

Undoubtedly, some celebrities, because of their great breakthrough(-->achievements) and contribution, have motivated thousands of youngsters in their studies and careers. In many cases, they are the first to successfully achieve the target that was considered to be impossible to attain previously. Their success will inspire others to achieve dreams which may also be considered as impossible. Xiang, Liu, the most famous Chinese athlete, has won the gold metal of 100 meter hundles in the Athens Olympic Games. People have a opinion which last for a very long time that the black people possess --> the physical strength that empower them to dominate the track of sprints the overwhelming advantages in sprint and it is impossible for Asians to have an excellent result (I remember there was once a Japanese who did well) in the sprint. And in facts, before Xiang, Liu, no other Asians could win the medal in the sprint. The significance of Xiang, Liu's success not only lies in the refutation of the traditional opinion-->overthrow of the domination of the black atheletes), but also motivate other Asians in sprints or who are willing to devote themselves in this field. The advent of Xiang, Liu makes them confident that if they could practice more with scientific coaching, they also have the possibility to succeed. So it could be seen that the role model could be a striking motivation force that impels people to move forward.

Besides, the role model's examples provide indispensable traits("lessons" or "guidance" would be better) to the success for others. The story of the role model, will disclose the reason why he or she could obtain the outstanding result and effect of other factors, like outside environment, supports from friends and chances that could help achieve the result. From learning all these traits, other people could apply in their own situations. Dells, whose marketing strategy is the direct sales which makes his business prospective tells us that the advantage of direct sales and how to utilize it to make a fortune. Once realizing the advantage of low cost and intimate contact with customers that the direct sales could bring, businessmen afterward develops the concept of network marking, introducing and delivering the product directly to customers by his sales team which is popular in the skin care market (it is better to cite a role model here with accounts of his/her path to success). Not surprisingly, in the lecture of MBA courses, many real case studies of some giant companies are discussed. And experts have proved that it is the most efficient way to learn from those who are successful. So the role model could leave the precious experience which may provide a great help-->be very beneficial to for followers.

Of course, people who copy ways that lead to role models' success without change abandon the independent thinking and acts. Past evidences have already proved that they will fail definitely. Different environment, different policies will make the exact role models' method obsolete. Bill Gates began to succeed at developing(It seems that there is another guy developing the DOS while Gates mainly focused on marketing) the operation system for the computer. At that time, there was nearly no competition in that area and a great potential lied in this field. However, if somebody still try to succeed by developing a new operation system, he will have much less chances to win over Microsoft since Microsoft has conquered the whole market and it is very advance now(Is it? But I think the chance is tenuous not because of Microsoft's domination but because of so far no OS has been proved to be better than windows). Obviously, Bill Gate's way is outdated*(Hi, watch out here! Many will not agree) and can not lead to the success by simply copying without change. And this analogy is prevailing in any other field.

To sum up, role models have many advantages and people who absorb the relevant trait with dependent thinking could benefit a lot.

I'd like to say that it's not that Microsoft's Windows OS is the best available through out the world but the monopoly Microsoft now obtained dominate it.Application programmes are based on Windows,hardwares are based on Windows,services are based on Windows...Right becouse of this reason,The Open Source champaign is stiring up by Linux Torvalds,Richard stallman,Eric Ramond and other great geniuses of computer science along with a vast quantities of programmers all around the world...

其实，在什么时间段，学习心态都是很重要的

能专业些，那么为什么不呢？

不要找太多的借口，这样才能学到更多的知识
