Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pigeon,can learn to recognize faces, we all take this ability for granted.
We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.
Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so.
But if you were asked to describe a "nice person", you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.
There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Fordin Allport, an American psychologists, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types people and deserved with such terms.
People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the hero’s role. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask". Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearances as well as in actions.
Which of the following is the major point of the passage?
选项
A、Why it is necessary to identity people’s personality.
B、Why it is possible to describe people.
C、How to get to know people.
D、How best to recognize people.
答案
B
解析
本文主要讨论的是:因为人与人的身体特征、行为特点都不相同,所以区分人、描述人才变的可能,A项符合题意。A项是说确定人的个性特征为什么是必需的、必要的。而文章显然没有谈及这方面的内容,也没有谈及如果不确定人的性格特征会引起什么样的问题。C项和D项与文章无多大关系。
