Jill Wesson is hiring staff for her company’s new office in Taipei. She’s started going through a pile of applications, taking note of work experience, and skills in computers and foreign languages. But one bit of information keeps turning up, and she can’t make heads or tails of it.
    "Why are all of these people telling me what their blood type is?" She asks. "What difference could that make? It’s an office, not a coal mine—nobody’s going to need a blood transfusion."
    East Asia’s obsession with blood types comes from the work of Furukawa Takeji, a Japanese doctor who nearly a century ago was sure that personality was caused by blood type. According to his theory, each blood type had a distinctive, corresponding personality type:
    Type A people are conservative and passive, and are concerned with appearances. Although type A people are superficial and have a touch of mental instability, they are very patient and finish what they start.[16]Type B people gel along well with others because they are straightforward, and are noted for their creativity. But type B people are also moody and become bored and annoyed easily.[17]Type O people are stubborn and impulsive. Their redeeming quality is that they are loyal to their friends. Type AB people are indecisive and picky. They tend to be demanding and impatient, and they have trouble seeing things through.
    Despite any real evidence to support these ideas, Takeji’s theory quickly caught on.[18]In 1930, standard job application forms included a blank for blood type, and today market researchers use it to predict buying habits, and ordinary people use it to choose friends and romantic partners.
16. What can we know about people of blood type B according to Furukawa Takeji?
17. Which of the following types of people feature loyalty to their friends according to Furukawa Takeji?
18. When did blood type first appear in standard job application forms?

选项 A、They are patient and finish what they start.
B、They are moody and become annoyed easily.
C、They are stubborn and impulsive.
D、They are conservative and stick to convention.

答案B

解析 细节题。文中提到,根据Furukawa Takeji的理论,B型血的人与人相处和睦,因为他们很直爽,而且富有创造性,但B型血的人容易情绪化(moody),容易感到厌烦和苦恼(become bored and annoyed easily),B)符合题意,故为答案。
