6.(10分)In 1901,Karl Landsteiner,an Austrian scientist,discovered that there are four types of blood.These four blood types are named A,B,AB and O.People have one of these four types.Blood type O is the most common around the world.Blood type A is the second most common,and type AB is the least common.If people with type A blood are given type B blood,or people with type B blood are given type A blood,they will probably die.
In 1927,a Japanese doctor,Furukawa Takeji,did a research and found that people with different blood types also have different personalities(性格).He said that people with type A blood are usually calm and serious;people with type B blood are curious(好奇的),cheerful,and outgoing;people with type O blood are generous(慷慨的)and honest;while those with type AB blood are often caring,creative and careful.
More recently,a doctor in the United States wrote a book that connects blood types with what people eat.For example,his book suggests people with type O blood should eat more meat and less bread and people with type A blood should eat more vegetables.His book,Eat Right for Your Type,has been popular with people who want to lose weight.However,Dr.Peter D'Adamo believes that if a person wants to lose weight easily,he had better eat food that matches his blood type.He thinks it will make the person healthier in other ways,too.
