16、he beholder. What one person considers beauty may not be beautiful to another. When we talk about beauty in people, we often refer to their physical attractiveness. Of course, a beautiful or handsome face is pleasant to look at. But to me beauty is not only something that pleases the eyes, but also

17、pleases the other senses and the mind. I think true beauty makes you see beyond the lovely sight.

The most memorable beautiful people are those who have attractive personalities behind the pr

18、etty faces.In one of my previous classes, there were two beautiful girls, Sue and Lin. Both had almost perfect faces and slim figures. But Lin was used to getting her own way.

19、er beauty in a matter-of-fact way and she was nice to everyone. She was also a member of the debating team. Her personality was mostly accepted by others and it made her a more outstanding beauty than Lin. Inner beauty is another kind of beauty that attracts people greatly. People who have beauty ha

20、ve attained inner peace. They care about their fellowmen, and try to right the injustices in this world. Two well-known personalities who are typical examples of this are Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa. Mandela is willing to sacrifice his life and freedom to obtain equal rights for the blacks in

Whats the authors opinion on beauty?A. Beauty is a perfect face and a slender figure.B. Beauty is something that pleases the eyes.C.

24、 Beauty is an attractive personality behind the pretty faces. D. Inner beauty doesnt attract people.DStudies show that you may be lied to every day anywhere from 10 to 200 times. We say, “Nice song.” “Honey, you dont look fat in that, no.” But another study showed that strangers lied three times wit

25、hin the first 10 minutes of meeting each other. We lie more to strangers than we lie to coworkers. Men lie eight times more about themselves than they do other people. Women lie more to protect other people. If youre married, youre going to lie to your wife/ husband in one out of every 10 communicat
