Question

I once thought that outer beauty is the only factor to become a great person．When I was young, I read many kinds of books, most of which described characters who are handsome or beautiful. So I think that being beautiful is the only way to become a success.

As I grew up，the story of my best friend made me realize that outer beauty was not so important to make a person successful. She is so beautiful a girl that every classmate liked to chat with her, but she was very arrogant(傲慢)．In her opinion, she could get all she wanted because of her beauty, but all of her friends left her one by one! Only then did she come to know the importance of the beauty in a person's heart, which changed her attitude and she made friends again．

Turning on TV，we can see many advertisements, most of which seem to give us a feeling that, physical attractiveness is the most important thing．There seems to be a boom in plastic surgery．It is surprising that more and more people，especially girls and women, try it like the first man-made beauty in China, Hao Lulu. It is a common sense that attractive people can easily find work. Most good looking guys, usually get higher scores in the job interviews. But, what is real beauty? I want to say that is inner beauty because those who have beauty in their soul are really beautiful persons．

As is known, the beauty judged with eyes is temporary, so we should concentrate on inner beauty. And if we make the efforts to make our minds beautiful, we’ll live a happier life.

【解析】

試題分析：作者受小說的影響，非常重視外在的美，以為只有漂亮就能成為一個成功的人，面試中也能得高分，這也正是整容手術(shù)越來越繁榮的原因，而朋友的經(jīng)歷使作者深刻的認(rèn)識到， 內(nèi)在美才是真正的美。

1.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段可知作者之所以變得漂亮，是因為小時候愛讀書，而書中描寫的男女主人公都很有魅力，所以自己也想擁有漂亮的外表，故選D項。

2.C 推斷題。文章第一段作者豎起了靶子，早些時候認(rèn)為外在美是成功的唯一因素，第二段舉例反證它的錯誤，引出作者的觀點，外在美是暫時的，它不是一個人成功的關(guān)鍵因素，故選C項。

3.A 推斷題。下文對這一句話作了解釋，越來越多的人為了追求外在美，象中國第一位人造美女郝璐做了整容手術(shù)，可知很多人注重自己的外在美白，故選A項。

4.B主旨大意。作者受小說的影響，非常重視外在的美，以為只有漂亮就能成為一個成功的人，面試中也能得高分，這也正是整容手術(shù)越來越繁榮的原因，而朋友的經(jīng)歷使作者深刻的認(rèn)識到， 內(nèi)在美才是真正的美，可知選B項。

5.D推斷題。由全文可知，一個人真正的美在于內(nèi)在，不論一個人漂亮與否，都要注意發(fā)展自己的內(nèi)在美，否則就會和作者的朋友一樣，發(fā)展到連一個沒有的地步，故選D項。
