The speaker asserts that you can tell much about people or a society by observing the appearance and behavior. While it is true to some extent but it is unfair to generalize a conclusion from people's external or temporary expression.

It is advisable to make preliminary judgment of people or a society in the way the assertion said. We often talk about first impression of somebody and people believe that it will last forever. That is to say we often judge a people from their appearance and behavior. When people browse a group of photos of a country they gain information about the history, culture and value of the society. When we are watching Notre-Dame de Paris we get to know something of state of existence of Gypsy and people’s moral value in that time of that society.

However, we cannot always make true estimations according people's external or temporary expression. That because sometimes the way people look, dress or behavior not completely from their own opinion. A simple example is that you cannot say that children are luxurious just because they wear expensive clothes, since a child is not born to like that kind of clothes and they are not free to decide which to wear. We should look at a person or a society with an eye on the course of development. People often make ridiculous mistakes to take scientists as psychotic persons just because the way their appearance and behavior.

Furthermore, it is not right to take a static view of people of society. Young people often know little about how to make up properly and how to get along with their leader and colleagues, so they turn out to be awkward and blunted. But you never look down up on them because they learn fast and they can transmute at any time. So is to a society like China. People who called on China in the 60's may think that people of the society like dark blue and gray best but only provided further information can people come to understand the various sense of fashion.

To know people’s attitudes and interests or a society’s ideas and values, the only way and also the best way is to get along or even be a part of them with long term. A people or a society is a complicate unity and everything happens to them has several causes and effects. Only with a glance at somebody or a random encounter, we cannot comprehensively understand anything like attitudes and values. The famous Pride and Prejudice tells us a romantic story about that kind of mistake, however it not always turns out to be so romantic to judge a person by a temporary expression.

In summary, people often make mistakes by judging by external or temporary expression. To see though people or a society, we should never generalize a conclusion that the way the issue recommends.

注意不是a people。 看题目You can tell much about a society's ideas and values by observing the appearance and behavior of its people，这里所说的people，是一个社会的大多数群众，至少是一群人的团体，绝对不是一个人。你的习作很多地方都忽略了这个问题，比如，穿着奢华的小孩，放在这篇文章里就不合适。
