Winston Churchill never thought a man wearing a simple outfit and having a simple lifestyle could make India independent. He simply underestimated his rival due to first impression. He once addressed Ghandi, a poor half-naked person who was striding toward the Royal Palace. In addition, Adolf Hitler was quite short, but his ability in speech and having a charismatic character made him a powerful man. In Germany he still has some followers. These examples show how we can make false judgement by external appearance.Today, our judgement is formed by mass media. We are bombarded with a huge amount of advertisements on cosmetic products and outfits. We have the Miss World contest to determine who is beautiful and fit. TV programs such as “Fashion police” or “What not to wear” form our minds and ideas about a descent individual. But, in society everything is different. Criminal statistics present that most girls are sexually assaulted by handsome well-dressed men. Even though the exterior may somehow reflect personality, it cannot guarantee what is in one’s heart and mind. One may seem so elegant at first glance, but after getting to know him, he may exhibit unattractive personality traits. The opposite can be true in this case. Someone with ugly dress is thoughtful and caring. Thus, we should separate the images constructed by mass media from what we confront in reality.Secondly, true beauty is not aesthetically appealing to the eyes. Physical beauty fades away with age, sickness, accident, etc. Permanent beauty nourishes the soul. In other words, what matters most is how one has helped humanity. Mother Teresa is not internationally acclaimed for her physical attraction, but because of her humanitarian actions to the poor, the sick, the orphaned and the dying public. The magnitude of a man is determined according to who he really is and not according to what he has. So, real beauty is to own a great soul.Lastly, I remember a story. One day, Nasreddin went to a party while he put on ordinary cloths. At the party, no one talked with him and he sat close to the exit door. Next month, he was invited to the same party once again but, he put on excellent cloths and went there. This time, they warmly welcomed him and asked him to sit in a fine place in the room. Then, at dinner, he poured all the food into his sleeve and said: Cloth! Eat. Cloth! Eat. This story refers to how public respect of one another is done according to the external appearance while a man should be judged as a good human being no matter what he wears or has. I think external appearance is not a good factor to judge and see someone’s heart. It also fades away with time. So, we should judge people according to inner beauty.*I very much appreciate dear Bill for correcting my essay.I got the picture from here.

Since I joined this group, you are the one I most admire. The way you present your writing can attract audience attention and makes me want to see more of your writing for my collections.
I guess with such a perfect english you succeed at your TOEFL exam:)
Yes of course i agree with this topic, unfortunately, much of our life is based on appearence and i think i can see exemples everyday. Though many of us here will agree with your essay, i am not sure we sometimes act different with people according to the way they look. I have to be careful about this sometimes, always telling myself that the important is not visible to our eyes.
Nice topic for a TOEFL essay. Bravo dear Nafis.
