II. Correct the following essay considering the following (10 points):


Our appearance, the way we dress, etc., reflects who we are. It is therefore important to be consistent in the stile we adopt throughout our lives.



Nowadays, the way we dress is a clear refleccion of our lifestyle. Things such hair style or clothes can communicate the miusic we like, our favorite books and our personality. However, not everybody understands well this kind of languaje, and this might produce a lot of prejudgments between piople in our society



On the one hand, when you see someone you have never seen befor, you just can find out things about him by seeing his appearance. It happens in our life every day. Accordingly, we should adopt a consistent style which expresses the things wi want to project.

On the other hand, sometimes we have to adapt our style to certain contexts. Therefore, it creates an illusion or a blurred image of ourselves. We like expressing ourselves with our own style, but samtimes it can be offensive or not appropriated for some people or contexts. For ixample, someone who likes rock music is usually long-haired, but when he wants to apply for a job he is told to cut his wonderful hair in order to be consistent in the “style” of the corporation.

To sum up, I think it’s important to try to be consistent in the style we dress as it is what we “say” to people who see us. Nevertheless, it creates a false image of everybody forcing us not to rely totaly on what we see.
