課題:What are the leading factors widening the gap between the rich and the poor?

以下がサンプル例文です。

I consider there are two factors widening the gap between rich and the poor.

Firstly, unequal opportunity directly broadens the gap between rich and poor. Some people was born with a silver spoon, which greatly contributes to constructing a solid foundation of their future successful careers. However some was born in a very poor family, even lost their parents at their early age. These people have tremendous difficulties in receiving good education and finding a well-paid job in real world unless they possess some special talents.

Secondly, unequal wealth-distribution is another reason. In today’s society, wealth is invariably flowing to high-tech and finance related positions which require people to possess essential skills, problem-solving ability. People who have such abilities always get high salaries. In contrast, people who do simple and repetitive jobs, although they work very hard, some of them just receive the minimum wage. I feel it is unfair to these working poor because the gap between salaries of different jobs is too big. Much of manual work is also very important.

For the reasons just stated, I hold that unequal opportunity and wealth-distribution are the leading factors widening the gap between the rich and the poor.
