23、s to work and live in line with the publics expectations. He then becomes the slave of his own success. For those who look for fame, failure is not necessarily a bad thing, especially for those who fail to perform well enough, because people tend to be more tolerant towards and sympathetic with them

24、. Though fame brings disadvantages to those who achieve it, people still seek fame for various reasons. It is better to take a critical attitude towards fame. We may all desire to be famous and yearn for the publicity, wealth and power that accompany fame. Few of us, however, realize that fame also

25、has its negative side and, sometimes, it may even destroy ones life. Read the following text and you will get to know more about the adverse impact fame can have on ones life.In-Depth2 Those who gain fame most often gain it as a result of possessing a single talent or skill: singing, dancing, painti

26、ng, or writing, etc. The successful performer develops a style that gains some popularity, and it is Fame is very much like an animal chasing his own tail who, when he captures it, does not know what else to do but to continue chasing it. Fame and the that it, force the famous person to participate

27、in his or her own destruction. Ironic, isnt it?In-DepthFameMelvin Howardspublicityaccompaniesthis popularity that usually convinces the performer to continue performing in the same style, since that is what the public seems to want and to enjoy. But in time, the performer becomes bored singing the s

28、ame songs in the same way year after year, or the painter becomes bored painting similar scenes or portraits, or the actor is tired of playing the same character repeatedly. The artist becomes the slave of his or her own success because of the public demands. If the artist attempts to change his or

29、her style of writing or dancing or singing, etc., the audience may turn away and look to give the momentary fame to another and then, in time, to another, and so on and so on.In-Depth3 Fame brings celebrity and high regard from loyal fans in each field. A performer can easily come to believe that he

30、 or she is as good as his or her press. But most people, most artists do not gain fame and fortune. What about those performers who fail, or anyone who fails? Curiously enough, failure In-Depthoften serves as its own reward for many people. It brings sympathy from others who are delighted not to be

31、you, and it allows family and friends to lower their expectations of you so that you need not compete with those who have more talent and who succeed. Andthey find excuses and explanations for your inability to succeed and become famous: you are too sensitive, you are not interested in money, you ar

32、e not interested in the power that fame brings and you are not interested in the loss of privacy it demands, etc. all excuses, but comforting to those who fail and those who pretend not to notice the failure.4 History has sufficiently proven that some failure for some people at certain times in thei

33、r lives does indeed motivate them to strive even harder to succeed and to continue believing in themselves. Thomas Wolfe, the American novelist, had his first novel Look Homeward, Angel rejected 39 times before it was finally published and launched In-Depthhis career and created his fame. Beethoven

34、overcame his cruel and harsh father and grudging acceptance as a musician to become the greatest, most famous musician in the world, and Thomas Edison was thrown out of school in fourth grade, at aboutIn-Depthage 10, because he seemed to the teacher to be quite dull and ill-behaved. Many other cases

Do you want the media to notice everything you do or say both in public and in private? In-DepthIn some areas it is very obvious that to be famous is to be the of everyone who disagrees wit

37、h you as well as of the media. Fame turns all the lights on and while it gives power and reputation, it takes the you out of you: you must be what the public thinks you are, not what you really are or could be. But targetwhy does anyone want fame? Several reasons come to mind: to demonstrate excelle

38、nce in some field; to gain the admiration and love of many others; to be the one everyone talks about; to show family and friends you are more than they thought you were. Probably you can list some other reasons, but I think these are reasonably common.In-Depth6 I say to those who desperately seek f
