"Shoes convey thin but useful information about their wearers," the authors wrote in a new study. " Shoes serve as a practical pur?pose,and also serve as nonverbal cues （暗示） with symbolic messa?ges. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear."

Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits (特点) found includes a person's general age,gender,income and other personality traits like one's emotional stability.

Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgements were based on the style,cost,colour and condition of someone's shoes. In the study,63 University of Kan?sas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most com?monly worn shoes? and then filled out a personality questionnaire.

Some of the results were expected：people with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes,and flashy (闪光的) shoes were typically worn by outgoing people.

However,some results are puzzling. For example, " practical" shoes were generally worn by more "agreeable" people,while ankle boots were more closely connected with "aggressive" personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore "uncomfortablelooking" shoes tend to have "calm" personalities.

And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take too much care of them,you may suffer from "attachment anxiety", spending a large amount of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.

The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality.

Y. E. S. ―a small group of high school students is not just learning about the envi?ronment around them,but they're actually doing something to improve it.

"This group has done a series of projects,from recy?cling about 600 pounds of tennis shoes,to over 50 cellpho?nes ,"said Patrick Merrick,a school teacher and Y. E. S. adviser.

The idea for environmental projects came about two years ago and it gradually became a part of an environmen?tal science class. In class,students would learn about a topic? design a project,carry it out and then take it to the community（社区) .

"Before every topic,we spent several weeks learning about the how,what and why of the idea," said Maddie Frank and Shawn Hanson,students in Y. E. S.

One of the goals,Frank and Hanson said,was to find out how much energy their school used throughout a school day.

"We decided to carry out a school energy audit (审计) ”，they said. " We divided up the classrooms among the students in our class. Each student recorded how much energy was being used in each classroom."

"We have been able to save money with the help of our school energy audit,make money with both the shoe and the cellphone recycling,keep a large amount of garbage out of the landfills (废物填埋地) with those recycling projects and make it possible for community members to use energysaving things”，Frank and Hanson said.

While the group is working towards making a differ?ence in the environment around them,they express their thankfulness for people's support.

"Without the help of our community and school,we would not have been able to make these recycling projects possible," Frank and Hanson said.

Australia is nearly as large as the United States,but most of it is too 1 for people to live in. Around the 2 of this huge dry part are large sheep and cattle 3 . A few of them are as large as the smallest 4 in America. Often the nearest neighbors are many hundred miles away.

Since the large forms were 12 far away from the towns,the children could not go to school. Radio schools were 13 for them in some areas. 14 a certain time each day,the boys and girls turned on their radios and listened to 15 in cities miles away.

Families on the large farms wanted to 16 news to their neighbors. " Round robin" talks by radio were started to 17 families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away or who was sick or who was 18 married. The men could talk about their sheep and cattle and how much money the market would 19 for them. In many ways the radio became a 20 for the farm people of Australia.
