Answer the questions

You are invited to a large party. Loud music is playing, and lots of people are dancing. Do you dance or talk to as many people as you can call all night? Later, you cannot fall asleep—you want more conversation! Or do you prefer a quieter corner? Or perhaps you cannot wait to go home early and relax by yourself.

Which of these people sound most like you? Person A, who tries to talk to everyone and stays late? Or Person B, who prefers to keep quiet and leaves early?

If you said Person A, you are probably more extroverted（性格外向的）. If you said Person B, you are probably more introverted（內向的）. Or perhaps you are Person C and fall somewhere in the middle. Introverted and extroverted people are two commonly used words to describe a person’s personality. And they are also commonly misused and misunderstood.

Introverts may be thought as quiet, shy and timid. Extroverts may be thought as bold, confident, loud and full of energy. Introverted and extroverted people may fit those descriptions. But these same descriptions do not define（下定義）introversion and extroversion properly.

Introverts and extroverts use their brains differently, and they get their energy differently. Introversion is the state of being mostly concerned with one’s own mental life. Extroversion is the opposite. Extroversion is the state of being mostly concerned with what is outside oneself.

People who consider themselves introverts may say they “need to be alone to charge their batteries”. However, introverts may still live being social and going to parties. But such activities require time to prepare.

Extroverts may say, “I don’t need ‘a(chǎn)lone time’, I feel more relaxed being around other people.” Even so, extroverts can still feel unsure or not confident among other people.

So where do you fall on the introversion/ extroversion chart?

1.If Person B is invited to a large party, what does he probably do?

2.Which three words in this passage are used to describe introverts?

3.What’s the main idea of the 5th paragraph?

4.What do “such activities” refer to in paragraph 6?

5.How do extroverts usually make themselves relaxed?

6.Which personality do you prefer, introverted or extroverted? Show your reason!

" The teacher smiled, used a pleasant voice, and acted in a friendly way. She told the students her name and wrote it on the blackboard. Then she told them something she liked to do and hoped to do with them during the year. The students knew that she liked many of the things they liked. Everyone felt that she meant what she said. Each of them wanted to know her better and be her friend. Then she let the students tell something about themselves. So they felt that the teacher knew them. Could you make friends as the teacher did? How do you get to know your classmates? One way is to find out more about them. During the break you can talk to them. You may ask them their names and the names of the schools they went to last year. They want to know about you, too. You may tell them about your interests or your holiday experiences. It is often easy to be friends with whom people have the same interests and play the same games. As you talk, the others may think, " I like to do the same things you do. It would be fun to be friends with you. "Remember! Just talking together in a friendly way is one good way to make friends.

A farmer grew some vegetables in his garden. One day his wife was ill and he had no money. He had to sell some cabbages and carrots in the market.
