What Does the Length of Your Fingers Say About You? Are you the peace-loving type or the ambitious go-getter?
Your finger length might be a clue. Take a look at your fingers. Would you believe me if I told you that the length of your fingers in relation to one another can predict your personality? I know that it sounds like one of those silly tests you see on Facebook, but I have to admit that it is exactly correct for me. Here's how it works.
Look at your three middle fingers of your hand. Is your index finger longer than your ring finger? Is your ring finger longer than your index finger? Or are the two of the same length? Find the situation that best matches your hand and see if what follows is an accurate description of your personality.
Longer ring finger: The Sweet Talker
If your ring finger is longer than your index finger, research shows that you're likely a charming type, and you can probably talk yourself out of any situation. Others often find this personality type irresistible and will go to great lengths to help you. You're more likely to take risks, and you're good at problem-solving. People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crossword-puzzle solvers.
Longer index finger: The (Over) Confident One
If your index finger is longer than your ring finger, chances are you are full of confidence—possibly even to the point of being over-confident and proud. You are not necessarily introverted (内向的), but you do enjoy time to yourself, especially when you're trying to complete a project. You are a dream pursuer who can make things happen, but you may be shy when it comes to taking the first step in a relationship. You are also probably happy with what you have, but you're always wishing for more.
Index and ring finger are of the same length: The Peacemaker
If your index finger and ring finger are roughly of the same length, you are likely to avoid conflict at all costs and seek to keep the peace in your relationships. You are well-organized, faithful and sympathetic. But deep down under all of that caring and peace-loving, you also have a hot-tempered side that can appear unexpectedly when you're pushed too far. You will try your hardest to avoid a fight.
How well do these descriptions match your personality? I was surprised at the accuracy in my case, but I'm not going to tell you which one it was!

【解析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了根据手指长度判断人的性格。(1)考查细节理解。根据Longer ring finger:The Sweet Talker部分中的“People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crossword-puzzle solvers.”可知,无名指较长的手可能是工程师的手,故选A。(2)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“I was surprised at the accuracy in my case, but I'm not going to tell you which one it was!”我对我的例子的准确性感到惊讶,但我不打算告诉你是哪一个!可知,作者觉得这个测得特别准,而没有提到他属于那种类型,故选D。(3)考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“What Does the Length of Your Fingers Say About You?Are you the peace-loving type or the ambitious go-getter? ”你的手指长度告诉了你什么?你是爱好和平的人还是雄心勃勃的干将?以及第二段中的“Your finger length might be a clue. Take a look at your fingers. Would you believe me if I told you that the length of your fingers in relation to one another can predict your personality?”你的手指长度可能是一个线索,看看你的手指,如果我告诉你,你的手指长度的关系 彼此可以预测你的个性,你会相信我吗?,接下来文章都在介绍不同的手指长度对应什么样的性格,所以全文告诉我们手指长度可以反映出人的性格,故选B。(4)考查推理判断。A.
