Sue and Jim were neighbors for five years but they were never interested in each other.Then one day,Sue saw Jim’s music collection.She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned.At that moment,she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking.Sue said,“I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.”They are now married and living with each other.

Some psychologists(心理学家)think that your taste in music is related to(有联系的)your personality.As part of a test at the University of Texas,Austin,USA,volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs.The volunteers then listened to each other’s CDs and made guesses about the CD creator’s personality—outgoing,adventurous,happy,and so on.These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films.For example,Sue and Jim love punk music,which means they have outgoing personalities.
The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg(hip-hop)fans are likely to be energetic and talkative.People who like U2(rock/pop music)are generally independent and adventurous.
The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz)fans tend to(倾向于)be shy.The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.
