Debate for middle school students - Chasing stars can do more harm than good

Most of us are blind to chasing stars. They blindly imitate their clothes and even their eating habits without having their own direction.

Star chasing fans are usually students. They have no financial income, but they have to buy records and attend concerts, which is a waste of their parents' income. If you don’t understand art appreciation, you will blindly chase stars.

(1) Impact on the physical and mental health of young people

Many young people, in order to chase stars, do not eat well, do not sleep well, listen to music half the time, and fall asleep all day long. Drowsily fantasizing, this obviously affects the young man's growing body and is not conducive to the young man's physical and mental development. Some star-chasing teenagers have to save breakfast in order to chase stars, buy color photos, and buy tapes. Some even go to the hospital to sell their blood in order to buy concert tickets worth one or two hundred yuan! There is a little girl in Chongqing who is willing to dance on the Jialing River in order to force her parents to buy her tickets! There are also many girls who morbidly regard the celebrities they admire as their lovers, suffering from unrequited love. Once they hear that their dream "lover" has a girlfriend or is married, they feel extremely sad and feel that they are not alone. Their "lover" was snatched away by others, resulting in a feeling similar to "lovelorn", decadence and depression, which seriously affected their physical and mental health.

(2) It is not conducive to the formation of moral character of teenagers

Adolescence is a critical period for the cultivation and formation of a person’s moral quality and even personality. The role model and role model in teenagers’ minds are Their imitation of role models, pursuits and behaviors in adolescence have a crucial impact on the formation of their entire mental outlook. Nowadays, star-chasers have a "halo effect" due to their admiration for celebrity idols. They blindly imitate, pursue and love their living habits, hobbies, clothing, and even pets. For example, they deliberately imitate the hairstyles and clothes of celebrities, ask around about the celebrities' hobbies, and learn to do it themselves. There was a boy who heard that a certain star didn't like a certain dish, so he stopped eating it. This kind of blind imitation is not conducive to the formation of young people's moral character. Also, where does the money for chasing stars come from? If you just save breakfast, it will only harm your health, but if you go astray for money, it will harm the moral character of the young man.

There was a girl who racked her brains and had no choice but to reach out to her parents in order to buy a frighteningly expensive ticket of 280 yuan. But she knew clearly that her working-class parents, whose monthly salary was only more than 200 yuan, would never give her money to go to a concert of a certain singer. what to do? Had to lie. So she asked for more than 200 yuan from her father, mother, grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandma, uncle, etc., plus the money she saved, using various excuses such as buying books, buying textbooks, buying school supplies, paying back classmates, donating, and helping classmates. It was easy to scrape together enough pocket money. When she ran to the ticket office with great joy, she realized that tickets were not available at the main entrance, but the black market fare had been "fried" by ticket dealers to 500 yuan a ticket. She was anxious and helpless. She should have stopped at the cliff at this time, but she was already obsessed with pursuing a certain singer. In order to see the true face of her idol, she took a desperate risk - reaching out to her father's wallet with her originally innocent hand... Of course, the money was She didn't "steal" it, and she didn't buy the ticket, but sadly, she paid a heavy price for it. She learns to lie and takes the first step toward dishonorable behavior, reaching the precipice of making a mistake. We hope she never takes another step! In addition to this example, a little girl in Chongqing asked her parents for money (150 yuan per ticket) and jumped into the Jialing River. This behavior was also very detrimental to her moral development. Therefore, I hope that young friends will calm down, check their own behavior, and never make "one mistake that will lead to eternal hatred"!

(3) It increases the financial burden of the family to varying degrees

Look at the price list! An original tape costs at least 10 yuan (9.8 yuan). Which "star-chasing fan" or "enthusiast" doesn't own twenty or thirty games? And new song tapes are still being released continuously! The demand for them by star-chasers is insatiable.

A large color print of a superstar costs about 3 yuan per piece. Look how many there are on the bedside and wall of a star-chasing boy. As for the tickets, they are even more endless: for Jacky Cheung’s concert in Beijing, the official price is 280 yuan; for Andy Lau in Chongqing, the price is 750 yuan, and the black market can fetch 1,500 yuan per ticket! If any of our star-chasing boys and girls want to witness the glory of their idols in person, can your working-class parents bear it? No wonder some girls in Chongqing have to sell blood! In fact, let alone being there, the money spent on tapes and color printing has already made many parents complain! I don’t know if you young friends have ever thought about it. Most of your parents have endured hard times, with low wages and rising prices. They are already frugal in providing for the elderly and raising children. Your parents have worked hard to bring you up. You As a pure consumer class, it doesn't matter that it doesn't contribute to the lives of its parents. How can it increase the burden on its parents with such unnecessary expenses? Think about it, right?

(4) Let bad guys fish in troubled waters and increase social instability

A student from a school in Shanghai came forward to organize a "Lingming Fan Club", attracting a large number of Liming fans. The event they organized was attended by more than 700 people in one park alone, most of whom were girls aged 14 or 15. To join, each person paid a membership fee of 20 yuan, so members flocked to the event and joined enthusiastically. In September this year, Liming held a concert in Shanghai. The fan club president said that he would organize fans to meet Liming. This attracted many star-chasers and enthusiasts. They threw money and eagerly waited to see Liming. Style. Unexpectedly, the first and second waits were like mud cows drowning in the sea without any news. Not only did they not wake up at dawn, but even the president was missing. Later I found out that the so-called president turned out to be a liar. He defrauded fans of their money and ran away with the money. Fans shouted that they had been fooled, but it was too late.

Where there is a crowd, there is good and bad. When innocent boys and girls are obsessed with chasing stars, it is inevitable that there will be lawless people fishing in troubled waters.

Furthermore, every time Hong Kong and Taiwan singers perform, the ticket prices are already set very high. However, due to the large number of fans, the supply exceeds the demand, causing the black market ticket prices to be speculated again and again by ticket dealers, and the prices are frighteningly high. , money flowed into the pockets of ticket dealers, but opened up a "road to wealth" for them, which is probably something that boys and girls with fevers never thought about.

The excessive fanaticism of star-chasers has also added unrest to society. Every time "superstars" hold concerts or meet-and-greets, it becomes an unsettling moment. Both inside and outside the venue (fans without tickets were waiting outside the venue from beginning to end) were shouting wildly. Fans surrounded, chased, blocked, and intercepted the singers. Fans asked for autographs from the singers they admired, etc., which may cause personal harm. . This kind of thing happens from time to time in Hong Kong and Taiwan. For example, when Andy Lau held a concert in Hong Kong, fans were trampled and seriously injured while trying to grab balloons. As for the chaos around the performance venue, thieves taking advantage of the opportunity to commit crimes, etc., let alone that. Young friends, do you know how worried your parents are about your safety when you are fanatically chasing stars?

Therefore, there must be a principle of moderation in chasing stars. If you pursue it to the point of transcendence, it will only cause a hundred harms and no benefits. Some people say that teenagers’ star-chasing craze is a reflection of the excessive academic load in middle schools, and is a reaction of junior high school students seeking to get rid of study pressure. This view is not unreasonable. But whether it's a rebound or a reaction, you can't go the other way and go in the opposite direction. The overload of schoolwork is indeed a problem that needs to be solved. However, it is still feasible to require schools to strengthen music, physical and aesthetic classes and carry out rich and colorful extracurricular activities that are beneficial to the body and mind. Young friends may wish to give it a try, maybe you will know that it is much more meaningful than blindly chasing stars.

Chasing stars among middle school students does more harm than good.

1. Chasing stars among middle school students does more harm than good. The main task of our middle school students is to study, and we should not do things that are not part of our real work, such as chasing stars.

2. Middle school students do not have good self-control ability. Once they chase stars, many of them will be unable to extricate themselves and abandon their studies.

3. Chasing stars not only requires time and money, but also consumes our energy, harms the physical and mental health of our middle school students, and leads to many unnecessary and useless things such as buying posters and so on.

4. Friends may have similar or different idols, and may have a repulsive or even hostile attitude toward others because of their different idols. There are many reasons why middle school students chase stars, for example: the songs they sing are good; their dances are good; they play (kick) wonderfully, they are handsome, and they have personality; they envy them for being carefree and being supported by people... However, In my opinion, the most important ones are: appearance, talent, and moral character. According to the survey, 23% of middle school students like the appearance of the stars they admire, 69% like the talent, and 14% like the character of the stars they admire. It can be said that most people like the talents of stars. As for their qualities, And sentiments are rarely paid attention to. For example, celebrity crimes are common these days.
