六、阅读短文,回答问题
Are you an "I" person or an "E" person? People have talked about it a lot online recently. They are part of a popular personality test called MBTI.
Everyone's result has four letters. "I" and "E" are the first letters. People are either "I", meaning introverted (内向的), or "E", meaning extroverted (外向的).
But sometimes introverted people can be outgoing (外向的) too. For example, an "I" person will hang out with a group of introverted friends. The person may do things a more extroverted person would do. For example, he or she may share their thoughts and feelings with others and ask strangers for directions.
I'm one of
these kinds of people. Sometimes, I show an interest in new classmates and friends. I talk with them to show I'm easygoing. But most of the time, I like being alone and staying quiet.
Don't label yourself just for MBTI results.
I have to say, the personality test is just for fun. Everyone's personality is different. Don't let the test tell you who you are.
In this case, I was a bad example. I used to be very curious about my friends' MBTI results. I would get upset (不快的) if their results didn't match the way I see them.
Soon, I think everyone might have a "personality stamp (标签)". For example, "P" people don't like to make plans. And "J" people are planners and list-makers. My sister is a "P" person. She never plans. But one day, she was happily making a day-to-day travel plan for the holiday.
"I thought you were a 'P' person," I said to her.
"Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me?" she replied.
"Oh no," I said to myself. "I've taken the result too seriously."
The four letters don't tell you everything about a person. And no one should live according to what four letters tell you.
