听力原文： Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize
people？ Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pigeon can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.
We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone's personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.
Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone's personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a "nice person", you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm-hearted, and so on. There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. An American psychologist found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people's behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types: people are described with such terms.
People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains' or the heroes' role. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask". Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easi]y tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.

听力原文： Some people believe that Edgar Cayce, an American man who lived in this century, had psychic powers. Cayce lived from 1877 to 1945 mostly in a small town in Virginia. He was not an educated man. As a child, he was a poor student, and attended school only until the sixth grade.
When Cayce became a young man, he discovered he had the power to hypnotize himself. He could put himself into a very special mental state called a trance. While in this trance, he could answer many questions about people's lives and futures. He could tell sick people how to become well. Often he answered questions about people's health that even doctors could not answer.
Cayce also answered questions about the future of the world, he correctly predicated when the first and second world wars would begin and end. He foresaw the Great Depression of 1929.
Today in Edgar Cayce's town of Virginia Beach, there is a special organization called the Association for Research and Enlightenment. At this place, there are films and lectures about Cayce's predictions and philosophy. There is a bookstore and a library with all of his psychic "reading". If you are in the US, you can visit the Association and learn more about this American psychic.
