Chuck Wall teaches management and human relations at Bakersfield College. He walked into class one day and told his students that their hwas to perform one act of random(任意的) kindness. His students did not understand the assignment(任务), but the professor would not answer their questions. He e
his students to find it out for themselves.
One week later, the students entered the classroom excited to stheir stories. One student told of distributing blankets to the homeless, another had contacted a long, lost friend, and another student r
that he had helped a dog to find its owner. Students were energized(激励) by the homework assignment and wanted other people to be kind too. W
the support of local businesses, the students made stickers to put on cars that invited people to do something k
for others. They sold the stickers and decided to donate the money to a center for the blind –not surprising as Professor Wall is blind.
Since then, skindness activities have been organized in schools all over the world. Many schools organize a Random Acts of Kindness Week, a
November 13, to celebrate World Kindness Day. Some schools use each day of Random Acts of Kindness Week to perform d
kind acts, such as making a new friend, helping someone, doing community service, or raising money for a charity. Students learn to c
other people and think about how small actions can make the world a better place.

Sue and Jim were neighbours 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 serious and intelligent While fans of classical music are also likely to enjoy jazz music and tend to be shy.The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.
