语篇类型：说明文  主题：人与自我(身心健康) 

Do you know why you get angry so easily, but your friend smiles all the time? It's because you both have different personalities. Then what is personality? It's about how people think, behave and react (作出反应) to everything around them.

So what makes people think and behave in certain ways? Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its genes(基因) and blood type (血型) when it is still inside its mother. These may help decide what the baby will be like.

But one’ s personality doesn’ t stop here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. But this doesn't mean you can't change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don't get too worried if you don't have a good personality.     ▲     This is a good way to start making changes.

For example, if you don't know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you' re too shy? If so, tell yourself to smile at people. Start talking to people kindly. But don't give yourself a hard time about it all. After all, it's not easy to change lifelong habits in one night.
