托福写作素材：通过书来认识一个人

The book genre you love most definitely says a lot about who you are as a person. Books can shape you, so it's only natural that you learned from the characters within, whether they were fairies, aliens, or your average human. So, grab your favorite books, figure out your favorite kind of novels and shorts, and get ready to find out what it means for you. Better than your zodiac sign, your most loved book genre will reveal your truest self:

Classics

You have and will reread just about every classic there is. Jane Austen and Sylvia Plath, Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck — this is the crew that will always be your favorite writers. You were the kid in high school who actually read all of the mandatory books and enjoyed them. You prefer getting to know one person deeply, rather than knowing a couple people on the surface. You tend to cherish the simplicities in everyday life more than anything else.

Fantasy

You prefer to read about huge and complex worlds where your imagination can roam as it pleases. Ever since you were a child, you've been more interested in mythology than anything else. You're a daydreamer, and often zone out while at school or work thinking of the next great adventure you'll go it comes to your friends, you've got some of the best, and you'll never treat them wrong because you know how valuable true friendship is after reading The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.

Horror

Like Stephen King, you believe everyone should read more horror books. You aren't scared easily, and the feeling of adrenaline rising in you is almost addicting. You're the risk-taker in your friend group, and when you go to an amusement park, you're the first one in line for the wildest rides. You're one heck of a storyteller, and your friends know that when you pull out the flashlight at a bonfire, they're in for a story that'll haunt them for the rest of the week.

Romance

For you, no book is a great book without a powerful love story included. Your tastes range from Gone with the Wind to Fifty Shades of Gray, and everything in between. You're a passionate person at heart, and always go the extra mile to satisfy someone you love. You always manage to keep a positive outlook on life, even if you've hit rock bottom. You have high expectations when you go on dates, but you're also pretty talented at wooing just about anyone that glances in your direction.

　　Science Fiction

You love reading about intergalactic adventures and futuristic events that could one day happen. When you were a kid, you didn't always fit in because you were thinking about new worlds and characters bigger than the boring middle school you were stuck in. You often have really great ideas but are sometimes afraid to speak up. With your smart wits, you and everyone around you knows you'd be the one to live through any apocalyptic event.

　　Young Adult

You're often found in the YA section of Barnes & Noble, scanning for new releases and recommendations. You’re young at heart, and that only makes you more curious and willing to learn new things in life. You're in tune with your emotions, and are almost always the one your friends go to when they need solid advice. More than anything, you're independent and take pride in both your successes and failures. You know it's all part of the process.
