1．Whatcanweinferfromthefirstparagraph?

A．Weshouldfocusonouradvantages.

B．Don'tbecheatedbyothers'praise.

C．Judgingoneselfinarightwayisimportant.

D．It'sunnecessarytoknowthemeaningofbeauty.

答案：

C　推理判断题。

根据第一段“...selfknowledgeisthemostimportantbeautysecret.”可知，人的自知之明是美丽的最重要秘诀。

由此推之，正确评价自己很重要。

2．Whatdoestheexampleinthesecondparagraphsuggest?

A．Goodlookingpeoplearemorepopularthanordinaryones.

B．Somebadlookingpeopleareafraidtolookinthemirror.

C．Somepeoplejudgeonebyhisappearancesimply.

D．Sometimeswemakeourownimperfectionsbigger.

答案：

D　推理判断题。

根据第二段“Thatbumponyourfriend'snose.It'sherfeature！

Itgiveshercharacter！

Buttoyou，thatthingonyournoseiscompletelyugly.Ouropinionsofourownlooksarealsochangeable.”可知，“你”可能认为朋友鼻子上的凸起是她的特色，赋予她个性。

而如果在自己身上，就会看起来很丑陋。

由此推断，有时我们把自身的瑕疵放大了。

3．“HotorNot”________．

A．isawebsitewhichallowsotherstocommentonyourcharacter

B．can'tchangeyourideascompletelyunlessyou'reconfident

C．isagoodwaytomakefriendsandmakesyoupopularonline

D．cansatisfyone'scuriosityaboutothers'secrets

答案：

B　细节理解题。

根据第三段“Butit'snotthebestwaytoimprovethejudgmentofyourselfbecauseyouhavenoconfidenceyetinyourmind.”可知，这个网站不是提升“你”对自己评价的最好方法，因为在心里，“你”仍然没有自信。

所以，除非“你”有自信，否则这个网站不能完全改变“你”的想法。

4．Fromthelastparagraphwecanlearn________.

A．hangingourlookscanmakeusmoreattractive

B．peopleshouldn'tcareabouttheirowndisadvantages

C．wecanmakeourselvesmorebeautifulinthemind

D．it'suselesstopayattentiontoyourappearance

答案：

C　细节理解题。

根据最后两句“Improveyourimpressionfromtheinside.Understandingyourownadvantagescanhelpyoustopworryingaboutyourappearanceandlookbetter.”可知，作者建议从内部提升“你”的形象。

了解自身优势有助于“你”不再担忧自己的外表，从而（让自己）看起来更美。

所以，“我们”可以从内心中把自己“武装得”更美。
