Read the passage below and choose A, B, C or D to answer each question from 41 to 45.
We often have stereotypical images of rockers as rebellious, classical music fans as quiet and modest, and lovers of rap as talkative and outgoing. But is it really true that our musical tastes show our personality? According to recent research from a university in Edinburgh, it is.
Professor North, who did the research, says that people often express their identity through the kind of music they listen to, the kind of clothes they wear and their hobbies and interests. So it isn't surprising that people's taste in music says something about their personality.
The researchers interviewed more than 36,000 people from around the world, asked them about their musical tastes and gave them personality tests. But did the research show that our stereotypical images are right? Here are some of the results:
• Lovers of indie music aren't very confident, gentle or hard- working, but they are very creative.
• Country and western fans are hard-working and not shy. Rap fans are outgoing and confident.
• Fans of pop songs aren't creative, but are hard-working, gentle and outgoing.
• The best fan to be is a soul fan, because they are creative, confident, outgoing and gentle!
Perhaps the most surprising result was that classical music fans and heavy metal fans have very similar personalities. People think of heavy metal fans as being very sad and unhappy. But like classical fans, they are in fact easy-going and creative, and not very outgoing.
Professor North says that the results explain why so many people are good friends with people who like the same music. Heavy metal fans in Sweden have more in common with heavy metal fans in Brazil than with, say, Swedish fans of pop.
The results also explain why some of us are so passionate about what we listen to, since music is likely to be closely linked to our personality. However, the research doesn't say what people who listen to lots of different types of music are like. Perhaps they are perfectly balanced! So, what does your music say about you?
