Only then did she come to know the importance of the beauty in a person's heart,which changed her attitude and she made friends again.Turning on TV,we can see many advertisements,most of which seem to give us a feeling that,physical attractiveness is the most important thing.There seems to be a boom in plastic surgery.It is surprising that more and more people,especially girls and women, try it like the first man-made beauty in China, Hao Lulu.It is a common sense that attractive people can easily find work.Most good looking guys,usually get higher scores in the job interviews。
