Nowadays, athletes play an important role in society. Especially, popular athletes who have a lot of fans, many people like them follow their lead. Gradually, athletes become the role models. Therefore, they have no choice but to be a good role model.Since YaoMing started playing for Huston Rocket in NBA and LiuXiang won the first Olympic gold medal in hurdling, people have been paying more attention to athletes, which includes things far more than sports they are playing. Some even set their favourite athlete as their role model.
It is reasonable that some athletes, especially the excellent ones, have become their fellows’ role models. I believe that it is their tough and indomitable spirit that is encouraging us to overcome difficulties and recover from pain soon. As we all know the fact that SangLan got hurt in a race and became disabled since several years ago. Instead of being frustrated and depressed, she tried her best to struggle with destiny and lived optimistically.There is another reason for people to love athletes, for instance, Michael Jordan attracts people with his superb skill and charming personality both in games and in daily life. So it is easy to understand why athletes are heroes of their fans and are admired.
On the other hand, it is reported some athletes use drugs to compete unfairly. What’s worse, some of them may have a turbulent lifestyle as they indulged themselves. Such performance do made their fans disappointed, there is no doubt that no one want a cheater or drunkard to be his role model.
Every man has his faults, so the athletes do, even some of them are our heroes. It depends on us to choose the sport star who performs well whether in the game or in their life, to be our role model. And then, we will get positive influence from our hero.
