问题     For my own part, I should certainly hesitate to hire a clerk on his face alone. Appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance, you might as well commit an error in judgement if you went by appearances only with people like Edward Hyde Burton, the character created by Maugham. As far as appearances and manners were concerned, Burton seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes. Kind, gentle and candid, he was described by many as one of the most respectable people on earth. Nevertheless, he turned out to be cruel to a friend in need of his help. He insulted and fooled Turner who was down and out and made him commit himself an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Turner’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.

选项

答案 就我来说,如果要雇个职员我肯定不会单凭他的长相就作出决定。外表往往是靠不住的。比如说吧,要是你凭外表去判断诸如毛姆笔下的爱德华-海德·伯顿这样的人,你就错了。从外表和举止来看,伯顿好像是个浑然一体的人。他个子很小,满头白发,有着一双温和、蔚蓝的眼睛。他文雅坦率、和蔼可亲,许多人都说他是个世上最令人尊敬的人。然而,他对需要他帮助的朋友却很残忍。他侮辱和愚弄山穷水尽的伦尼,让他去做那样的蠢事。更让人吃惊的是,他对伦尼的死全然冷漠无情。毫无疑问,他是个铁石心肠的家伙。
