2025年单元自测试卷青岛出版社八年级英语上册人教版第36页答案
D
If someone asks you to describe yourself, what would you say? It can be difficult at times to think about your personal traits( 特点) or characters in an objective ( 客观的) way.
Our characters mainly make up who we are, and are about how we are thought of by other people around us in a way. Here are some common characters. Believe it or not, some of them are negative( 消极的). Let’s have a look at them.

clever: quick at learning and understanding things
creative: having the ability to create
sociable: trying to meet people and spend time with them
friendly: easy to get along with
impatient: not having patience(耐心)
selfish: caring only about yourself
lazy: hating to work or doing little
careless: not giving enough attention
Of course, there are also many other words to describe our characters. And it is impossible that a person has only a single one. You can get to know what kind of person you are by asking yourself some searching questions, like “when and where are you happiest?” “What kind of friend do you like best?” “If you find a dog hurt, what will you do?” or “If you win the lottery( 彩票), how will you spend the money?”
You can change your negative characters by taking active steps in your daily life to become a better person. Taking up a hobby is a great way. Sports can help you learn teamwork. Arts can make you more patient. Even just reading a book can push you to be better. Why not try some of them?
