All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results     2     total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted” (内向的) and “extroverted” (外向的), respectively.

Even if someone is rather quiet, many online discussions suggest that an “I” person can still act outgoing at times. For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become     3     (much) social like an “E” person.

Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. And what kind of person you are     10     (decide) mostly by your genes and home influence, not just by the four letters.
