英文小作文:
Flunkeyism is a social phenomenon that has become increasingly prevalent in modern society. As a result, many people have been influenced by this mentality and become slaves to others or pursue fame and fortune at any cost. However, I believe that we should be true to ourselves and not be slaves to anyone or anything. We should pursue our own goals and ideals, rather than being influenced by others or being slaves to society. In this way, we can truly live our lives and be happy and fulfilled.
