29、ren who spend time together take on one anothers personalities, a new research has found. The study shows that environment plays a key role in shaping peoples personalities. While genetics still forms the central part of the human psyche(心理), the research finds that personality traits(特征)are “contag
30、ious”(传染的)among children. “Our finding flies in the face of common assumptions that personality cant be changed,” said Dr. Jennifer Neal, co-author of the study.

Rudeness could include leaving someone off an invite to a company event, sending unkind emails, finding fault with others or failing to give praise. Dr. Torkelson believes

49、are trying hard to attract and keep young people for their technical skills and enthusiasm for change, office culture is becoming an extension of youth culture. This may be no bad thing.
