4．　　When might you need to give blood for a personality test? The answer is that you need to do so when you ask for a job.
　　Some people believe that your blood group hides no secrets. It shows the "real you". And the owners of certain blood groups might be particularly good or bad at certain tasks. This is the very reason of why you could be asked to offer your blood group before being given a job.
　　The new idea was carried out first in Japan and now it has been brought over to other parts of the world. One important business company in Japan is quite special about this need:"For our office members, we must have 30 percent of group A and 15 percent of AB, 25 percent of O and 30 percent of B".
　　Do you happen to know your own blood group? It seems that if you belong to blood group O, you can get things done and sell the goods well. Blood group A are the thinkers, while blood group B are highly creative. And if you have problems, ask the ABs to solve them. So if you visited the Japanese company, you would find the O types out selling goods and A types keeping order in the office.

　　"We found that good memories seem to have a good effect on health. Perhaps they can reduce stress or help us keep healthy choices in life. " said the researchers of the study.
　　The researchers used more than 22, 000 people in two studies. The first period followed adults in their mid 40s for 18 years and the second period followed adults 50 and over for 6 years.
　　In both groups, people who remembered higher levels of love from their mothers as children experienced better physical health later in life. Those who had memories with more support from their fathers also had less feelings of sadness.

Report Two
　　Keeping away from depression (低落的情绪) has become the main goal for many people nowadays, but hugging the depression may be more helpful, a new study reports.
　　Many people may experience the time when they are sad or feel they can 't enjoy anything. They hate being weak. So they hide their true feelings. But the report says this behavior can even make the depression worse. The more attention people pay on happiness, the more disappointed they might probably be.
