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(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：介紹某個觀點-提出自己的意見-論證自己的觀點。寫作重點是論證自己的觀點。

假如我們支持“外貌比能力更重要”的觀點，怎么落筆?我們可以把論點設置為：盡管能力很重要，但如果沒有較好的外貌，一個人也難以獲得成功。理由：①第一印象影響深遠，這是人之常情。在能力相差不大的時候，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。比如占代的龐統就因為貌丑被劉備分到一個偏僻地方當小縣令。結論：外貌也是生產力，我們沒有理由不注重自己的儀表。

當然，更多人會選擇“公認”的論點，認為能力比外貌更重要。可以把論點設為：盡管外貌漂亮具有優勢，但長遠來看，還是能力更重要。理由：①任何實際問題的解決都需要能力，光靠外表于事無補。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自信，會越來越呈現出自己的人格魅力，越來越受歡迎；而僅有美貌沒有內涵的人，接觸久了就會越來越喪失魅力。③外在的美是具有時效性的，會隨時間的推移而喪失，而注重能力的提高，可以使自己不斷得到充實。

Analysis

[1]描寫outline提到的現象。

[2]介紹outline提到的觀點。

[3][4]說明自己的態度，正面提出自己的觀點。

[5]強調句型，說明能力更為重要。secureyouto…使用得當，可以為文章增添色彩。

[6]從能力與外貌二者隨時間推移此消彼長的角度論證能力比外貌更重要。

[7]簡要總結文章的小心論點。
