To me this is an easy choice..I would pick extremely smart because to me smart IS beautiful and one of the features I find the most attractive in another person. I would love to be extremely smart. Ugly as a foot or busted like a drain pipe I would not care because I would be smart enough to know.... well I do not know what I would be smart enough to know because I am not extremely smart, but I am sure it is something great I do not know now.
Another reason, smart lasts longer. Exterior beauty will fade quickly in comparison to extreme intelligence which will continue to grow until the actual brain starts to degrade due to old age, injury, or disease. The extreme beauty of youth is disappearing quickly after middle age unless one readjusts the parameters by which they measure beauty.
Beauty entertains me... smart is impressive.
To me, this is a pretty hard question, yes like how buddawiggi said beauty will fade quickly, but I wouldn't like to be ugly, I would love to be smart, honestly I am not very smart... but I'm not dumb. To be honest I would have to be extremely smart.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
