     How important is your appearance? Although everyone want to be good-looking, are beautiful people
always happier people? For example, it must be a problem to be a really beautiful woman, because some
people may be more interested in looking at you than talking to you. They think of you as a picture rather
than a person. There are also some people who think that women who are exceptionally (格外地) pretty
and men who are particularly handsome must be stupid. They believe that only unattractive (无魅力的)
people can be intelligent.
     On the other hand, no one wants to be really ugly, and have a face that even your mother doesn't
want to look at and no one wants to be plain, either-that is, to be neither attractive nor unattractive, and
have a face that is easily forgotten.
     Being attractive is like being rich it can help you find happiness, but it doesn't always make you happy.
So maybe the best thing is not to worry too much about how you look, but simply try to be a interesting
person. For interesting people have interesting faces, and interesting faces are almost always attractive.
(     )1. Everyone wants to be attractive.
(     )2. No on likes to talk to a very pretty woman.
(    )3. Some people think that handsome men are unintelligent.
(    )4. A plain face is easily forgotten.
(    )5. Not many interesting people are also attractive.

     We are in a world full of competition. Our parents compete (竞争) with others in their offices, our
brothers and sisters compete with others in their colleges, and we compete with our classmates in school.
Many of us give up in the face of competition and will never be successful. ①can't, others, why, we, do,
better, than One important reason is that we have no self-confidence (自信).
     In fact, everyone is born equal. You can do what others do. Although your classmates may be better than
you in some ways, you may be better than them in other subjects. So everyone has his or her own advantages.
Don't look at things from a single (单个的) point of view. Try to discover your own advantages, and believe
that you can do better than others in those ways.
   Competition is not so terrible. Don't be afraid of it. And don't be afraid of those classmates who are better
than you. ②Remember that self-confidence is the first step to success. Believe in yourselves, and you will be
