问题     Beggars are often seen begging in the streets, or "waiting for windfalls". Some agree that people should give a hand to beggars. Others think that we shouldn’t show sympathy to beggars, as many of them are sham beggars or even swindlers. What’s your opinion about it? Write an essay of about 400 words entitled:
                Should We Show Sympathy to Beggars?
选项
答案                 Should We Show Sympathy to Beggars?
    It’s very common to see someone in dirty clothes begging on the streets, ranging from little children to the middle-aged and the aged. We can also hear people complain that most beggars beg not because they are poor but because they want to make money more easily. Some of the beggars are even swindlers. They have created a lot of problems, which makes more and more people worried. Some people even begin to doubt whether we should show sympathy to beggars. As for me, I believe that we should not show sympathy to beggars by simply giving money to them for the following reasons.
    In the first place, giving money to beggars does not really help them but encourages laziness as the news reveals that many beggars beg along the street because they want to get money without any labor.
    Secondly, giving money to these beggars sometimes amounts to encouraging illegal activities of criminal gangs. Many children are innocently involved into some criminal gangs and forced to beg along the street. And a large number of them are abducted and then wounded to be disabled by crime syndicates in order to gain more sympathy.
    Thirdly, many beggars actually have the ability to work. If we stop giving money to them for a long time, maybe they will give up begging and try to find other ways to earn money. Maybe they will find a job by themselves to make a living and become a successful person, thus making greater contributions to the society.
    From what I have mentioned above, it is not an ideal way to show our sympathy to beggars by giving money to them directly. Give money to a real charitable organization that will actually use your precious pennies to do something other than encourage organized crime and laziness. Money cannot solve the fundamental problem. There is no reason for losing one’s sense of pride and self-dependence to beg for people who have the ability to make a living by working. We should teach them how to live an independent and decent life on their own.
