1.IsGoodAppearanceMoreImportantthanCapability?[1]Nowadaysmanyjobseekerswithgoodappearancebutlowerabilitiescanstillgetdecentjobs.[2]BasedonthisfactsomepeopledrawaconclusionthatgoodappearancIsGoodAppearanceMoreImportantthanCapability?[1]Nowadays,manyjobseekerswithgoodappearancebutlowerabilitiescanstillgetdecentjobs.[2]Basedonthisfact,somepeopledrawaconclusionthatgoodappearanc解析：本篇是論述題，要求對某一種觀點(diǎn)(外貌比能力更重要)提出肯定或否定的看法，并加以論證。此類作文的基本寫作模式是：介紹某個(gè)觀點(diǎn)-提出自己的意見-論證自己的觀點(diǎn)。寫作重點(diǎn)是論證自己的觀點(diǎn)。

假如我們支持“外貌比能力更重要”的觀點(diǎn)，怎么落筆?我們可以把論點(diǎn)設(shè)置為：盡管能力很重要，但如果沒有較好的外貌，一個(gè)人也難以獲得成功。理由：①第一印象影響深遠(yuǎn)，這是人之常情。在能力相差不大的時(shí)候，決定因素就是外貌。②有能力的人如果不注意形象，會招致誤解，影響工作。比如占代的龐統(tǒng)就因?yàn)槊渤蟊粍浞值揭粋€(gè)偏僻地方當(dāng)小縣令。結(jié)論：外貌也是生產(chǎn)力，我們沒有理由不注重自己的儀表。

當(dāng)然，更多人會選擇“公認(rèn)”的論點(diǎn)，認(rèn)為能力比外貌更重要?？梢园颜擖c(diǎn)設(shè)為：盡管外貌漂亮具有優(yōu)勢，但長遠(yuǎn)來看，還是能力更重要。理由：①任何實(shí)際問題的解決都需要能力，光靠外表于事無補(bǔ)。盡管賞心悅目的外表可以給人較好的第一印象，但如果能力不夠，不能勝任工作，照樣還會被淘汰。②有能力的人在工作中能夠展現(xiàn)自信，會越來越呈現(xiàn)出自己的人格魅力，越來越受歡迎；而僅有美貌沒有內(nèi)涵的人，接觸久了就會越來越喪失魅力。③外在的美是具有時(shí)效性的，會隨時(shí)間的推移而喪失，而注重能力的提高，可以使自己不斷得到充實(shí)。

Analysis

[1]描寫outline提到的現(xiàn)象。

[2]介紹outline提到的觀點(diǎn)。

[3][4]說明自己的態(tài)度，正面提出自己的觀點(diǎn)。

[5]強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，說明能力更為重要。secureyouto…使用得當(dāng)，可以為文章增添色彩。

[6]從能力與外貌二者隨時(shí)間推移此消彼長的角度論證能力比外貌更重要。

[7]簡要總結(jié)文章的小心論點(diǎn)。
