Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay explaining why it is unwise to judge a person by their appearance. You can give examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

There is an old saying that it is unwise to judge persons by their appearances. I cannot agree with this point of view any more. This proverb aims to deliver that in order to truly know a person, we need to go beyond their looks and dresses and focus on more profound aspects.

It is true that an attractive appearance is of great significance not only for daily life but also for the job. However, it is unwise to judge one person by the appearance for the following reasons. Firstly, people are so diverse that some of them are not willing to demonstrate themselves by their appearance because they may dedicate more time to their work and their hobbies. Moreover, it is too busy for the modern urban people to maintain their appearance. If we judge a person by their appearance when he or she is in a bad state, we might lose a possible good friend or an opportunity. Thus, the appearance should not be the merely criterion for judging an individual, considering that there are more important factors, including manners, kindness, honesty and so on.

In conclusion, judging a person by their appearance is highly undependable. Therefore, we’d better draw a conclusion about a person through a long period of observations, interactions, and communication.

参考译文

有一句谚语说：通过外貌判断一个人是不明智的。我十分同意这个观点，这个谚语的目的是提供一个信息，为了真正认识一个人，我们不能只看他们的外观和衣着，应专注于他们更深刻的方面。

有吸引力的外表确实是会对日常生活还有工作有重要意义。但是，出于以下原因可以说明用外貌判断一个人是不明智的。首先，不同的人很不一样，有些人不愿意表现自己，因为他们可以投入更多的时间在工作和爱好上。而且，现代都市人士太忙了以至于不能时刻保持外表。如果我们在一个人状态不佳的时候判断一个人，那么我们可能会失去一个可能的好朋友或一个机会。因此，我们必须考虑到更为重要的因素，包括礼貌，善良，诚实等等，外观不应该成为判断一个人的唯一标准。

总而言之，通过外观判断一个人是不可靠的。因此，我们最好通过长时间的观察，互动和沟通来得出评价一个人。

根据题目，我们可以列出以下提纲：

第一段：引出观点，并说明寓意。

第二段：分析原因。

第三段：做出总结，并给出建议。
