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、In 1911.
B、In 1913.
C、In 1930.
D、In 1931.
答案
C
解析
细节题。短文最后提到,尽管没有实质性的证据能够证明FurukawaTakeji的观点,但他的理论很快就流行起来。到了1930年,正规的求职申请表(standard job application forms)上已经有了血型一栏,故答案为C)。
