In order to discover what “me” means to other people, Dr Hart, a psychologist, made some interviews and comments.

Jade is a plain-looking girl who would love to look good. Since she    19    (discover) selfie apps that could beautify one’s image, she has become addicted    20     them. Dr Hart says that obsessive online photo editing indicates    21     lack of self-confidence and a desire for attention and that    22     Jade does tends to misjudge herself.

Anthony, 21, a college student, never used to care about his    23    (appear). However, a TV programme changed him. He realized that external beauty wasn’t    24    (total) worthless. Dr Hart agrees with him, saying that inner beauty is very important, but external beauty can’t be completely    25    (overlook).

Emma, 17, a senior high school student, has been    26    (large) than other girls. She tried every means possible to lose weight, only    27    (bring) herself nothing but pain and poor health. The success story of a plus-size model changed her ideas about what it means to be beautiful. She realized that    28    (keep) fit was the most important thing.

There is a saying “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.” What one individual considers beautiful 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 pleases the other senses and the mind. I think true beauty makes you see beyond the lovely sight. It will give you insight or realization of something interesting beyond just the outward appearance.

The most memorable “beautiful people” are those who have attractive personalities behind the pretty faces. In one of my previous classes, there were two beautiful girls, Sue and Lin. Both had almost perfect faces and slender figures. But Lin was used to getting her way. She felt that her looks could help her get anything she wanted, especially among the boys, whilst Sue treated her 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 this kind of beauty have attained inner peace. They care about their fellow men, and try to right the injustices in this world. Two well-known personalities who exemplify this are Nelson Mandela and Mother Teresa. Mandela is willing to sacrifice his life and freedom to obtain equal rights for the blacks in South Africa. Mother Teresa’s mission is to help the poorest of the world’s poor. This inner look makes the world a better place.
