Questions 77-80 refer to the following article.

Myers-Briggs Personality Test
Has someone ever told you that you are introverted or extroverted? These
characterizations of personality come from the Myers-Briggs personality test.
Psychologists, therapists, job counselors, and dating services all use variations of
the test to try to determine the most prominent traits of one’s personality. But is the
test accurate?
Myers and Briggs, the originators of the test, weren’t even scientists. Katharine
Briggs was a housewife married to a physicist and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers
had a bachelor’s degree in political science. They became interested in the test after
reading a book by the psychiatrist Carl Jung in the 1920s. Using a simplified version
of his ideas, they developed a questionnaire and a scoring system.
Page
17


Job counselors often use this type of test to get an idea of people’s strengths and
weaknesses and then attempt to match their personalities with a job that matches.
For example, a job counselor may discover from the test that an individual is an
adventure-seeker and then recommend a career in firefighting or police work. Similar
tests are used for dating services where potential partners attempt to find
personalities that best match with their own personalities. For example, a person
who likes to be in charge would not match well with another person who likes to be in
charge; instead, this type of person should seek a person who prefers to have others
make decisions for them.
Many scientists question the value of this type of test. One reason is that the results
aren’t falsifiable, meaning that any of the personality types could fit just about any
person. Another reason is that the results depend on the test-takers being able to
answer each question about themselves honestly and accurately. Critics argue that
this type of test may reveal information about how an individual’s self-perception but

does not necessarily reveal a true picture of their personality.
77. Where would you most likely find an article like this?
A. a scientific journal
B. a newspaper
C. a magazine
D. a novel
78. What is the main point about the Myers-Briggs test?
A. It may not be the best judge of someone's personality
B. It is helpful for finding romance and work
C. The creators weren't qualified to make a test like this
D. It is losing popularity
79. Who inspired Myers and Briggs to make the test?
A. Briggs's husband
B. Briggs's daughter
C. Carl Jung
D. Myers's job counselor
80. Some people disagree with the test because _______________.
A. It's too old.
B. A person's opinion about themselves might not be accurate.
C. Scientists have proven that it doesn't work.
D. It’s boring.

Workshop schedule

Ms. Bao,
I have attached a draft of the schedule for the upcoming workshops. I wish we
had scheduled it for a week from today instead of for the day after tomorrow.
There is still so much to do get ready; however, we can’t change the date now. I
really appreciate your support in getting things ready.
Here are some things I need you to take care of. Tea and snacks should be
served immediately after Mr. Chang’s presentation. He plans to talk for just an
hour, so there will be time for this before the next presentation begins. Also, the

room that we have scheduled for lunch is one of the smaller rooms, and serving a
meal there would be difficult. In addition, we have a workshop scheduled in the
same place right before lunch, so there would be no time to set up. See if you can
exchange places with the Demographics workshop. The room we have scheduled
for that seems more convenient and comfortable for eating.
Please make sure there are enough chairs in each room for everyone. So far,
45 people have registered for the workshop, but a few more registrations could
come in today or tomorrow. You should have 15 extra chairs in each room just to
be safe. There is one last schedule change. Mr. Wang will have to leave right after
lunch, so please give him Ms. Lee’s time slot, and she can take Mr. Wang’s
afternoon time slot. Send me the revised schedule this afternoon. Thank you.
