“Have you done the MBTI personality test?” “Yes, I’m an INTJ,” replied Gu Ailing in a recent interview． Gu’s response became a hot topic online and drew people’s attention to the test．

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a test designed to discover a person’s personality type． The test result is based on four sets of opposing qualities: Extroversion (外向) VS Introversion, Sensing VS Intuition (直觉), Thinking VS Feeling and Judging VS Perceiving (感知)． After answering more than 90 questions, test-takers get their four-letter personality result, including a detailed description． Gu Ailing’s result of INTJ is one of the 16 possible personality types that the test shows．

Developed by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers in the US in the 1940s, the test grew to become the standard for personality tests． Many companies and organizations use it to help them choose people for certain positions． And now in China, Internet users are using it as a tool to guide their lives and relationships．

The key problem with the MBTI is that the test is too “black and white” according to The Guardian． The results place people into only one of each of the four categories; for example, someone is either an introvert or an extrovert． But many people would surely sit somewhere in the middle of these two． In short, the MBTI only gives a “simplified view of human personality”, claimed The Guardian article． It can only really describe the surface of who people are． And don’t forget that people’s behavior and characteristics also change over time． Tests and tools that help people better understand who they are and how they think are very powerful and can still help in some parts of life． As science and technology develop, people can look forward to more accurate tests that truly embrace how wonderfully complex and ever-changing humans really are．

32．What does the article tell us about the MBTI?

A．It was developed about 90 years ago．  B．It has been supported by psychology experts．

C．It groups people into 16 different personality types．    D．It was created to help companies choose people for certain positions．

33．How can people discover their personality types?

A．By giving a detailed description．         B．By answering more than 90 questions．

C．By changing the standard for personality tests． D．By reading the 16 possible personality types directly．

34．The underlined word “simplified” in the passage probably means ________．

A．in general         B．in detail                 C．trustworthy             D．too simple

35．What is the purpose of writing this article?

A．To find out how to practice MBTI．      B．To explain why MBTI is becoming popular．

C．To generally describe the MBTI personality test． D．To help readers understand themselves through MBTI．

Family VS Friends

It is Saturday afternoon． You and your friends are planning to go to the movies and then have a dinner together． Just as you start to get ready, your dad reminds you that it is your aunt’s birthday and the whole family is going out to dinner to have a celebration． How can this end without a quarrel?

The tension (紧张情绪) between teenagers and their families mainly comes from how to balance what they want with family hopes． You once spent most of your free time with your parents． When you want to spend more and more time with your friends, your parents’ feelings may get hurt． They might feel that they are losing control (控制) of you during the period． You might feel angry that so many family requirements are placed on you．

Here are a few things you can try to make it a little easier to ease (缓解) the tension between you and your family．

*Tell your plan to your parents first and ask your parents whether there is anything else planned at that time．

*When your buddy activities come with a family event, try to find out if there is any way you can do both． You can spend a little time with each group． You can go to the family event and ask to be with your friends next time． You can also invite your friends to the family event．

*Suggest something you would really like to do with your family． When your parents know you want to spend time with them, they will feel better．

Sometimes the results cannot always make both pleased． However, the tension can be eased if you think about the feelings of your family as well as those of yourself and your friends．
