　　Ability and Good Looks

　　Old people usually tell the young, “Don’t judge a person by his appearance.” Meaning ability is more important than appearance. Indeed, we’ve seen so many brilliant but not at all good-looking people. In the film Mozart, an opera singer reiterates (repeat) this view by saying, “For a woman of taste, it is not the looks, but the talent that interests me.” For her, the preference shows one’s taste.

　　However, nowadays, with more and more interviewers putting much emphasis on the looks, the appearance of the job-applicants, a lot of people come to the conclusion that appearance is more important than ability because many beautiful girls acquire very good positions although they don’t have much talent.

　　In my opinion, ability is definitely much more important than good looks, because it demonstrates one’s own self-cultivation. It bespeaks (show) the efforts and the glory of acquiring something through one’s hard work whereas a good look bespeaks no struggle of the individual. Good looks are pleasant, but I like the ability because it really shows something of my own self.

　　然而，如今，随着越来越多的面试将在看起来非常重视，对工作申请人的外观，很多人得出的结论是，外表比能力更重要，因为许多漂亮女孩获得很好的位置，虽然他们不'T有多少才华。

　　在我看来，能力确实比长相重要，因为它表明自己的修养。它体现了(显示)的努力和获得通过一个人的，而一个很好看的东西荣耀努力接引没有对个人奋斗。漂亮的脸蛋是愉快的，但我喜欢这个能力，因为它真正体现了我自身的东西。
