　　Ø deserve vt. 值得

　　Body 1

　　Irrefutably, it is justifiable for some to assert that top executive salaries are exorbitant. This is mainly because salaries should be hinged on the number of working hours or the volume of workload, yet it is hard to determine whether top-tier managers work longer or harder than ordinary personnel or whether their efforts and output proportionate to the higher pay. It is not a rare case in most companies, whether manufacturing plants or financial consultancies, that executive positions sit all day having meetings and signing the paper, while average employees are required to do abundant work for the business boom. Such seeming unfairness may further demotivate common workers and render them less productive.

　　解析

　　<让步-高层不应该高薪>：同样的工作时间，无法准确衡量工作量，高管高薪看似不公平。这种不公平性甚至导致普通员工消极怠工。

　　Ø exorbitant adj. 高的离谱的

　　Ø hinge on vi. 取决于

　　Ø top-tier manager 高层管理者

　　Ø output n.[U] 产出

　　Ø proportionate to vi. 成正比

　　Ø demotivate vt. 使失去动力，使变得消极

　　Body 2

　　However, I would like to highlight that top-level managers should receive more generous remuneration as a reward for the vital decisions they have made and onerous responsibilities they have assumed. To specify, though ordinary workers tackle an array of basic working assignments, chief executives are responsible for harnessing and distributing resources, developing strategies catering to governmental policies, and foreseeing changeable market dynamics. In other words, there is a nearly endless supply of average individuals for entry-level positions, but executives are few and far between and difficult to replace, thus deserving higher pay. Additionally, substantial salaries for senior managers can also encourage average employees to improve themselves for job promotion, which in the long term equips corporates with more vigorous workforces.

　　解析

　　<立论-高层应该高薪> 1. 高能力、高责任;2. 鼓励其他员工提升自我

　　Ø remuneration n.[U] 薪资

　　Ø onerous adj. 繁重的

　　Ø assume vt. 承担

　　Ø harness vt. 控制，利用

　　Ø cater to vi. 满足需求，迎合

　　Ø dynamics n.[C] 动态

　　Ø few and far between 非常稀少

　　Ø substantial adj. 大量的

　　Ø job promotion n. 职位晋升

　　Ø vigorous adj. 有活力的

　　Conclusion

　　In conclusion, both individuals and corporates will be the beneficiaries if senior executives are better paid.
