What makes people famous? Some people say you can only be famous if you are born in a famous family. No doubt, they say that a daughter of a famous singer and a son of a famous actor are famous. But what to do with the people who are not from a famous family or so-called self-made people?
Arnold Schwarzenegger, for example. He was sixty in 2007. Amie was a small, weak boy, and his father, a local policeman, wasted a stronger son. Arnold liked bodybuilding and started going in for it. He acted in every film he could, and he is a famous actor and a happy family man. He entered a university when he was already a millionaire and got a Bachelor Degree in economics. He was a Governor of California. Everything he has he got himself, not from his father or mother. He became famous because of his strong character.
Or Lady Diana Spenser. Of course she was born to an aristocratic family, but she first became famous for marrying the Prince of Wales. All the British loved her for her democratic, charming yet simple manner, her beauty and her affectionate love to children. She was the member of the Royal family who yet wasn’t haughty or reserved. She was close to the men in the street, who called her People’s Princess. They admired her sense of duty and her quick wit. She won many hearts with her compassion to the sick and her warmth. She obtained the love of simple people herself, not for being a member of the Royal family.
Another example is Bill Gates. Who knows his father or mother? But he is a very famous person even for those who don’t spend much time in front of a computer. Here are some examples which you could use as arguments.
A composer, whose name is associated with the greatest achievements of Russian culture, about Pyotr Chaikovsky.
Pyotr Chaikovsky was born on the 25 of April 1840, in the family of a nobleman. He: began to study French and Russian grammar when he was 4.
When he was six, his father bought a mechanical piano. This was the first classical music the boy heard. His mother showed him how to play the piano; since then every spare minute Pyotr had been at the piano and played. He composed his own pieces, too.
