Whatever your hands touch, your phones touch. It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times mo
17、re bacteria and viruses than any surface in a public restroom. So it probably wont surprise you that a 2011 University of London study found that one in six of our phones have bacteria and viruses on themspecifically, the bacteria called E. coli.The research on bacteria and viruses led to the invent
18、ion of PhoneSoap. It is not actually liquid like dishwasher soap. It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation (辐射) used in hospitals to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses, cleaning your phone while it charges.“There are really certain types of bacteria and viruses that we sh
19、ould not be in touch with, and they are really on our phones,” says Wes Barnes, the PhoneSoap co-founder. It all started while his cousin and co-founder, Dan LaPorte, was in his cancer research lab at college. “He realized he got the idea of getting rid of bacteria and viruses on the phones,” said B
20、arnes. “In the lab they used UV-C light for destroying them. He realized this would be the fastest, most powerful way to kill any bacteria and viruses living on electronic machines.” PhoneSoap looks like a little metal suitcase. Your phone rests in to charge and get cleaned at the same time. Instead
21、 of plugging your phone into the wall, youd plug it into the PhoneSoap charger box. The process only takes a few minutes but, Barnes says, “The idea is that you can leave it in there overnight if you want to keep charging. Reflective paint keeps the light completely around the phone so it cleans the
22、 phone fully.”The co-founders spent 2013 finding the right companies and they started shipping the product in late November. By last weeks International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, PhoneSoap was all grown-up. Both co-founders have left their previous jobs and are selling PhoneSoap nonsto

28、job performance. These tests are now included in almost all graduate recruitment (招聘) and are widely used in the selection of managers.The most popular of these personality tests is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). It is based on the theory that we are born with a tendency to one personality
29、type which stays more or less fixed throughout life. You answer 88 questions and are then given your “type”, such as Outgoing or Quiet, Feeling or Thinking.Critics of personality testing raise doubts about “social engineering”. Psychologist Dr. Colin Gill warns that the “popular” personality traits
30、(特性) have their disadvantages. “People who are extremely open to new experiences can be butterflies, going from one idea to the next without mastering any of them.” However, the psychometric test is here to stay, which may be why a whole sub-industry on cheating personality tests has sprung up. “Its
31、 possible to cheat,” admits Gill, “but having to pretend to be the person you are at work will be tiring and unhappy and probably short-lived.”So can we change our personality? “Your basic personality is fixed by the time youre 21,”says Gill, “but it can be affected by motivation and intelligence. I
32、f you didnt have the personality type to be a doctor but desperately wanted to be one and were intelligent enough to master the skills, you could still go ahead. But trying to go too much against type for too long requires much energy and is actually to be suffered for long. I think its why were see
33、ing this trend for downshiftingtoo many people trying to fit into a type that they arent really suited for.”Our interesting personality now exists in every part of our lives. If you ask an expert for advice on anything, youll probably be quizzed about your personality. But if personality tests have
34、any value to us, perhaps it is to free us from the idea that all of us are full of potential, and remind us of what we are. As they say in one test when they ask for your age: pick the one you are, not the one you wish you were.5. TheMyers-BriggsTypeIndicatorisbasedonthebeliefthat_.A. certainpersona

Children can get lucky money from relatives. In the following days, we will visit relatives home and bring New Years wishes to them.In short, its a time for family gathering and all of us enjoy it.
