    Should we invest too much in building theaters and sports stadiums? The rapid-developing society brings people about places where they can enjoy musics or do exercises. Here comes the debate that whether it is worthy or not to allocate massive money to fulfill people's entertainment needs when someone else cannot get access to basic medical cares and education. From my point of view, the problem lies on how to distribute money in a efficient way. Places like theaters and sports stadiums have their irreplaceable values in improving people's health both psychically and psychologically. Musics and dramas always wave their magics to ease people's mind, release people's pressure and spice up their life. It is especially true for the children, who can utilize them to expand their outlook, broaden their knowledge and cultivate aesthetic temperaments. Likely, people also benefit from sports studios as they intensify their strength and flexibility. Besides, buildings of arts and sports are constantly of aesthetic beauty and precious, which boost the design level of buildings and arts. It is these buildings that liven up the city, which turns out to be monotonous normally. In addition, the construction of these buildings, which cost a lot of money, would promote the development of some related industries such as steels, decoration and electrics. Although the advantages are manifest, we cannot deny that they attract a host of money of taxers, which should be invested in medical care and education originally. Living in the lowest level of the society, a multitude of needy people do not have any medical care or education. It is not uncommon that most of them cannot afford the high prices of tickets in the theaters, cinemas and sports stadiums, which seem meaningless for them. Based on the principle that money should be paid at the most required place, many critics believe that it is the government's obligation to maintain people's basic medical and educational rights, which need a fortune invested, while the musical and sports buildings distract the government's attention. To sum up, the government should balance the upsides against the downsides of building musical and sports buildings. On the one side, they boost people's senses of satisfaction, aesthetic temperament and improve related industries as well. On the other side, they distract the government's attention in allocating money in the most required areas like medical care and education. The government should make rules and regulations considering both pros and cons.

    An Brief Introduction to Xi'an Xi'an is a beautiful city situated in the middle of China. With a history of more than 3000 years, the city is surrounded with time-honored atmosphere. The first time I came to Xi'an is when I went to my university 5 years ago. As far as I went off the train, I was astonished by the amazing scenery: beautiful long walls, straight-forward streets, modern high-rise buildings and fantastic historical museums. When I entered to the Shannxi history museum, I was attracted by the amazing amount of precious stuffs of historical value. Apart from the incredible scenery, the people in Xi'an are always helpful and hospitable. If you have any question about the way to go, a satisfied answer will be got from the local residents. At that time, you can feel Xi'an like home constantly. However, the drawback of Xi'an is also various, from the stuffy air to the crowed street, from the bad infrastruction to the disturbing drainage system. It is like all coins have both sides. I like Xi'an not only because of the unbelievable view, but also because of its hospitable residents. Although there are some unsatisfying things, the memory and the expression are of sentimental value.
