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. Gordon Allport, an American psychologist, 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 are described 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 villain' s(坏人)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 appearance as well as in actions.
By using the example of finger prints the author tells us that ().
A.people can learn to recognize faces
B.people have different personalities
C.people have difficulty in describing the features of finger prints
D.people differ from each other in facial features

First of all, good talkers ask questions.Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answera question.And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers.And to find outwhat sort of person you are talking to, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.
Real listening at least means some things.First it means not to change the subject of the con-versation.Real listening also means not just listening to words but to tones of voice.If the voicesounds dull, then, it&39; s time for you to change the subject.
Finally, good talkers know well now to deal with the occasion of parting.If you want to seethat person again, don&39; t keep it a secret.Let people know what you feel, and they may walk awayfeeling as if they&39; ve known you half their life.
