it
is
puzzling thatonly
iron anchors of quite a late date seem to have been lost there, despite local evidence of sea trade during a period nearly four thousand years ago, when stone anchors would havebeen in use Among the anchors and other remains there are an extraordinary number of Roman millstones, which were
widely
traded throughout the ancientworld (5)

ispersonality?
A
We areall
familiar
with
the idea that different people havedifferent
personalities, but what does this actually mean?It
implies that different people behavein
different ways, butit
must be more than thatAfter
all, different peoplefind
themselves in difl'erent circumstances, and much of their behaviourfollows
from this fact However, our cofllmon experience reveals that different people respond in quite remarkably different ways even when facedwith
roughly the same circumstancesAlan might
be happyto iive
alonein
a quiet and orderly cottage, go out once a week, and stayin
the samejob
for
thirty
years,whilst
Bethlikes nothing better than exotic travel and being surrorinded by vivacious friends and loud music
B
In cases like these, we feel thatit
cannot bejust
the situation which is producing the differencesin
behaviour Something about the way the personis
'wired
up'
seemsto
be atwork,
determininghow
they reactto
situations, and, more than that, thekind of
situationsthey
get themselvesinto
in
thefirst
place This is why personality seems to become stronger as we get older; when we are Yoffig, our situation reflects extemal tbctors such as the social andfamily
environment we were bom into As we grow older, we are more and more affected by the consequencesof
our own choices (doing jobs that we were drawn to, surounded by people like us whom we have sought out) Thus, personality ditferences that might have been very slight at bir"th become dramaticin
later adulthoodC
Personality,then,
seemsto
bethe
setof
enduring and stable dispositionsthat
characterise aperson These dispositions come
partly from
the expressionof
inherent featuresof
the nervous system,and partly
from
learning
Researchers sometimesdistinguish between
temperament,which
refers exclusivelyto
characteristicsthat
areinborn
or
directly
causedby
biological
factors, and personality,which
also includes social and
cultural
learning
Nervousness,for
example,
might
be
a
factor
of
temperament, but religious piety is an aspect of personality
(10)D
The
discovery
that
temperamentaldilferences
are real
is
one
of
the maior findings
of
contemporary psychology
It
could
easily have beenthe
casethat
there wereno
intrinsic
differences between peoplein
temperarnent, so that given the same learning history, the same dilemmas, they would all respond in much the same way Yet we now knorry that this is not the caseE
Personality measures turn out to be good predictors of your health, how happy youtypically
are-
even your tastein
paintings Personalityis
a much better predictorof
these things than social class or age Theorigin
of these diff'erences isin
part innate That isto
say, when people ale adopted atbirth
and brought upby
nerv tamilies, their personalities are moresimilar
to those o1'their blood relatives than to the ones they grew upwith.
F
Personality differences tendto
manifest themselves throughthe quiok,
gut-feeling,intuitive
and emotional systems of the hnnran mind The slorver, rational, deliberate systems show less variation in output fiorn person to personl)eliberate rational strategies can be used to orrerride
intuitive
patterns of response, and this is how peopie wishing to change their personalities or feelings have to go about it As human beings, we have the uniqueability
to look in at our personalitylrom
the outside and decide what we want towith
itG
So what are the major \vays personalities candiffer?
The dominant approach is tothink of
thespace
of
possible personalities as being definedby
a numberof
dimensions, Each person can be given alocation in the space by
their
scores onallthe
dilTerent dimensions Virtuail-v ai1 theories agree ontwo
of
the main dimensions, neuroticism (or negative emotionalit)') and extroversion (or positive emotionality) Hon'ever theydifler

Offices and bars are
fulI
of casual obscenity, but most British newspapers are well, not necessarily careful about language, but careful about bad words anyway Thephrase'family
newspaper'is an ineluctable part of our lives Newspapers are not in the business of giving gratuitous offenceIt
is alimitation
of newspaperwriting,
and one everybody in the business, whetherwiting
or reading, understands and accepts There are many other necessarylimitations,
and most of these concem time and spaceNewspapers have dominated sportswriting in
Britain
for years, and have produced their own totem figures and doyensBut
ten
years ago,a
new player
enteredthe
gameThis
was the
phenomenonof
men's magazines; monthly magazines for men that had actual words in them - words for actually readingGQ
was1 aJ
(11)the pioneer and, in my
totally
unbiased opinion as the long-term author of the magazine's sports column,it
leads the way
still,
leaving the rest panting distantly in its wakeSport,
is
of
course, ablindingly
obvious subjectfor
a men's magazite-
but
it
couldnot
be tackedin
ablindingly
obvious way Certainly, one of thefirst
thingsGQwas
ableto oflbr
was a new way ofwriting
about sport, but this was not so much a cunning plan as a necessity.The
magazine was doomed, asit
were, to offer a whole new rangeof
freedoms to its sportwriters Heady and rather alarming freedoms Freedom of vocabulary was simply the most obvious one and, inevitably,it
appealed to the schoolboywithin
usBut
space andtime
werethe
others, and these possibilities meant thatthe craft
of
sportswriting hadto
be reinventedUnlike
newspapers, afiragazine canoffer
a decent length of time to research and towrite
These are, you wouldthink,
luxuries-
especially to those of us who are often required to read an 800-word match report over the telephone the instant thefinal
whistle has gone Such a discipline is nerve-racking, but as long asyou
can
get
it
doneat all, yol
have done
a
goodjob
No
one
expectsa
masterpieceunder
suchcircumstances
In
some ways the ferocious restrictions make thejob
easierBut
a long magazine deadline gives you the disconcerting and agoraphobic freedom to researeh, towtite,
to thinkTo write a piece for a newspaper, at about a quarler of the massive GQlenglh, you require a single thought The best method is to
find
a really good idea, and then to pursueit
remorselessly to the end, whereideally
you make a nice
joke
and bale out stylishlyIf it
is an interview piece, youlook
for a few good quotes, andif
you get them, that's your piecewritten
for you For a longer piece, you must seek the non-obvious Thisis
a goodquality in
the bestof
newspaperwriting, but
an absolute essentialfor
anywriter
who hopes to complete theterri$ring
amountof
wordsthatGQrequires
If
youwrite for
GQyau
are condemned totry
and
join
the best There is no other wayGQ is not restricted
by
the same conventionsof
reader expectation as a newspaperYou
need notworry
about offending peopleor
alienating them; the whole ethos of the magazine is that readers are there to be challenged Therewill
be readerswho would
find
someof
its
pieces offensiveor
even impossiblein
anewspaper,
or
evenin
adifferenl
magaaineBut
the same readerswill
read the pieceinGQ
andfind
it
enthralling
That is because the magazine is always
slightly
uncomfortable to bewith
It
is notlike
a cosy memberof
thefamily,
nor evenlike
a friend I1 is the strong, self-opinionated person that you can never quite make up yourmind
