He thinks he is not too much talkative WRITING: Do you believe that personology is accurate? What other ways are there of analysing a person’s personality without knowing them? (Possible answer: It’s unfair to judge people without knowing them.) Another way is looking at people’s handwriting It is called “graphology” Audio File Links: Part 1: http://filecloud.io/stlebm65 Part 2: http://filecloud.io/psevtlu0 Part Elsa:Hi, everyone I’m Elsa Fuller, and I believe that every face tells a story Our face is the key to our personality, and personology is the art that can teach us how to read a face like a book Just by looking at the shape of someone’s face, and their eyes, nose and lips, you can discover a lot about their personality Through personology, we can learn about ourselves, the way we think and feel, and what our talents are We can make better decisions about the career we want Personology can also help us with relationships Let’s say we’ve met someone new and gorgeous – but are they right for us? Personology can give us the answer! And there’s the business aspect, too – today, more and more businesses are using personology to find the right people to work for them Part Elsa:The first thing I’d like to is demonstrate Could I have a volunteer, please? OK, how about you sitting at the back over there? Come on up here … thanks very much … what’s your name, then? Matthew:Matthew Elsa:And how old are you Matthew? Matthew:I’m eighteen Elsa:And where you live? Matthew:Here in London, in Croydon Elsa:OK, Matthew, let’s have a good look at you First of all, the general shape of your face … It’s quite wide, which means you’re confident, but you can be impulsive – sometimes you don’t think enough before you take action You’re a natural leader, but you can be too bossy Your nose … hmm your nose is quite small and it’s round at the tip This shows that you like to help people You also like to know everything about people – you’re too curious sometimes! Your eyes are far apart, which means that you see the big picture, and you don’t focus on details You’re relaxed and open-minded But you’re late a lot, because you try to too many things at once Your mouth … your lips are quite thick This means you’re a generous person But you also talk quite a bit, sometimes too much! Your eyebrows are rounded and far from your eyes, which also means that you’re talkative Well, Matthew, what you think? Matthew:I’m not sure I’m hardly ever late, and actually I don’t talk very much Elsa:Oh, but Matthew – personology can tell you things about yourself that you didn’t even know!
