or Roosevelt once said that she had one regret: She wished she had been prettier. Who hasn’t felt the same way？ We are all too awake to our physical imperfections. To overcome them, we spend billions upon billions of dollars every year on cosmetics, diet products, fashion, and plastic surgery.

Why do we care so much about how we look？ Because it matters. Because beauty is powerful. Because even when we learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny, we are still moved by beauty. No matter how much we argue against it or pretend to be immune, beauty exerts its power over us. There is simply no escape.

Aristotle said, “Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction.” It’s not fair, but it’s true. We simply treat beautiful people better than we do others. Attach a photograph of a beautiful author to an essay, and people will think that it is more creative and more intelligently written than exactly the same essay accompanied by the photo of a homely author.

As children, beautiful people are more likely to become favorites with parents and teachers. Later, they’re more likely to get good jobs and promotion. Beautiful lawyers get paid more than their less attractive colleagues. Good-looking criminals are more likely to win the sympathy of judges and juries. Attractive people in need are more likely to receive help from strangers.

Dialogue : Beautiful Packing

John: Glad to see you again, Sherman.

Sherman: Hi, glad to see you too.

John: Please, sit down．Would you like to try our new tea？

Sherman: Great! The main purpose of my visit today is to place another order of your Longjing tea．Actually, we will place regular orders from now.

John: Oh, it is a good news for us．I have the confidence that our tea won't make you disappointed.

Sherman: That is true．But before that, I'd like to talk something about the packing of Longjing tea.

John: Did you find any problems with the packing？

Sherman: No．My meaning is to improve the packing of your Longjing tea．There is no doubt that the quality of your tea is good．It is the packing that often gives the first impression on customers rather than the products themselves so we believe the packing is as important as the quality of the products themselves.

John: I agree with you．But could you be in details？

Sherman: Sure．Firstly, we believe the out-look of the package should attract customer．A beautiful packing is surely a great help in pushing sales．To be honest, your packing is not attractive enough to buyers.

John: Do you mean the color of the design should be more bright and eye-catching7

Sherman: Eye-catching with traditional Chinese style．You see, customers even can smell your culture before they open the box and drink the tea．As you know, one function of packing is to stimulate the buyer's desire to buy.

John: I'll pass your idea onto our designers and ask them to improve it.

Sherman: Thank you John．Secondly, if it is possible, we would like to advise you to improve your methods of packing.

John: Our packing is typical tin for tea．Any questions about this method of packing？

Sherman: I am thinking about how to let your packing speak for the good quality of the tea itself．Can we find some other packing ways to show off the appealing green and sl~ape of the tea？

John: We can leave an open window on packing.

Sherman: You get the point.

John: Thanks for your suggestion.
