Question:

Complete the sentence with the most appropriate word or phrase out of the given options.
A good looking girl does not necessarily have a good character, __________________________.

Options:

don't go by the appearance

beauty is only skin deep

never judge by the appearance

all that glitters are not gold

Correct Answer:

beauty is only skin deep

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2: beauty is only skin deep

It is a proverb implies that physical beauty is superficial and does not reflect a person's true qualities or character. It implies that inner beauty, such as kindness and integrity, is more important than outward appearance.

Option 4, "All that glitters are not gold," is a proverbial saying that cautions against being deceived by appearances. While it conveys a similar message about not judging based solely on external appearances, it may not be the most appropriate completion for the given sentence because it focuses more on material things rather than specifically addressing the context of character or personality traits.

The sentence "A good-looking girl does not necessarily have a good character" suggests a discussion about the correlation between physical attractiveness and inner qualities. Option 4, while relevant in a broader sense, may not directly address the idea of character as the option 1 do. Therefore, while it conveys a similar sentiment about not judging based on appearances, it may not be the most precise fit for completing the sentence.
