解析：本次六級(jí)延續(xù)“引語評(píng)論”式作文命題形式，且給出具體寫作要求。如題，話語為“為何依據(jù)外貌判斷一個(gè)人不是明智的做法”，可以“舉例”證明觀點(diǎn)。值得注意是，經(jīng)多方查證，話語本人有語法錯(cuò)誤，即a person和their appearance，不知是出題人疏忽還是有意為之。令人尋味呀！但是，作文話題不難，比較容易上手。
范文：
There is a common but enlightening remark: “it is unwise to judge a person by his/her appearance.” Obviously, this saying can be naturally associated with the key to judging an individual: if we intend to know what exactly a person is, it is not advisable for us to depend only on his appearance, because appearance does not mean one’s ability or virtues.

有這樣一個(gè)常見但有啟示性的評(píng)論：以貌取人不明智。顯然，這句話使我們自然聯(lián)想到判斷一個(gè)人的關(guān)鍵所在：如果我們想真正了解一個(gè)人，僅僅以貌取人是不理智的，因?yàn)橄嗝膊坏扔谝粋€(gè)人的能力或美德。
In contemporary society, it is a common phenomenon for every one to meet, know and get acquainted with a host of colleagues or friends. However, in communication, intelligent people find it rather unwise to judge a person merely by his appearance. Taking a look around, we can notice a great many examples like this: a teacher can not judge a student’s academic performance by appearance; an employer can not judge an employee’s working performance through appearance. By contrast, wise men judge a person by his ability or virtues. It is one’s ability or virtues that enable him to gain others’ love, respect and trust.
在當(dāng)今社會(huì)，每個(gè)人都會(huì)與很多同事或朋友相識(shí)、相知到相熟。然而，在交往中，明智者發(fā)現(xiàn)僅憑外貌去判定人是不明智的。我們身邊有很多這樣的例子：老師不能根據(jù)外貌斷定學(xué)生的學(xué)業(yè)表現(xiàn)；老板不能根據(jù)外貌斷定雇員的工作表現(xiàn)。相反，智者根據(jù)能力或美德判斷一個(gè)人。正是一個(gè)人的才或德使其贏得他人的尊愛戴、尊重和信任。
As a college student, I am convinced that it is of great necessity for youngsters to learn to judge persons in a rational way. Thus, we should educate, advocate and encourage our friends, classmates and acquaintances to pay more attention to others’ ability and virtues, rather than appearance. （214 words）
作為一名大學(xué)生，我堅(jiān)信年輕人有必要學(xué)會(huì)理性判斷一個(gè)人。因此，我們應(yīng)該教育、倡導(dǎo)和鼓勵(lì)我們身邊的朋友、同學(xué)和熟人更多關(guān)注他人的能力和美德，而不是外貌。
