We are familiar with an old saying that “Clothes make the man”，which means goodlooking outfits may possibly make a person better respected and look more like a true gentleman.__ 【1】_ Naturally，he may be well respected and gracefully treated even though he doesn't seem so respectable as others imagined. Instead，if a man is poorly or commonly dressed，he can't avoid being looked down upon and unfairly treated，_【2】_ As far as these people are concerned，what one wears is taken as an essential signal of status and an expression of characteristics. Consequently，clothes do seem to help make a good impression on others，and gain more respect.

__【3】_ I think the good impression one leaves on others based on clothes doesn't last long. Only good internal quality and beauty will impress people forever and never fade.__ 【4】__ On the contrary，when people who are fascinated by a person's clothes eventually find out that he is an undesirable person，they would think he is pretentious and may even treat him with contempt(蔑視)．On top of this，people who attach too much importance to clothes would waste their time and money on it. Besides，it adversely affects their effort on the things that really matter.

In summary，__【5】__Nothing can count more than good internal quality in building up the man. Therefore only one's internal beauty and knowledge are more decisive of a person's value.

A．clothes do help in making an initial image，but do not make the man.

B．As a result，all the people spare no money to buy expensive fine clthes.

C．Clothes just make a man look better but will in no sense make a better person.

D．But I have a different view on this issue.

E．Thus，a man should be always dressed like a gentleman.

F．for many people judge others only by the way they dress.

G．If a man is well dressed，he will probably gain more confidence and dignity.
