我们听某人之言，可以知其人之性，“言为心声”，是之谓也。我们将这句话往深处一想，便不难悟出这样的道理--以貌取人所反映的往往是一种肤浅。

　　7. If you judge a person by their appearances , this tells people more about yourself than it does about that person . If the only quality that you value in a person is how well he dresses or how attractive he looks , then we can see into yourself , and understand that the things that you really do value are those very superficial qualities .

　　待人接物如此，交友时亦是如此。择友时若唯外表是取，你可能会与志趣相投者擦肩而过：

　　8. If you choose your friend based on who is well dressed or who is more attractive , or other superficial qualities , then you are going to have less likelihood to have a good friend . You are going to miss out on a friend you could have who is much more interesting and much more creative and yet is much less interested in appearances.

　　外表的改变用不了多少时间，而内在素质的养成却远非一朝一夕。不知读者是否同意这个说法？

　　9. People can buy a very nice outfit in just a couple of minutes , and they can change their outward appearances in a few hours by going to a barbar"s shop or a hairdresser"s . And yet how long will it take to develop creativity , or to become very well educated , or to have interests in areas of knowledge ? You can"t gain these so easily and quickly . It takes years , not just a few minutes .

　　以上只是考生中比较普遍的一些想法和观点。不能面面俱到。读者在读过本文之后可以思考一下，理出自己的思路，然后试着将自己的说法表达出来。这样做既可以理清思路，又能提高口语表达时所述内容的精确性和用语的准确性。
