Writing exercise

These days my favourite TV show is I’m a big detective. It is a reality show. Some stars take part in this show and one of them is criminal suspect，others need to catch the criminal suspect through the clues or evidences. At the end of the show, every one needs to vote a criminal suspect and the person who voted the right one can win a gold bar. It is a very interesting show and audiences also can guess who is the criminal suspect. I like it. After reading the description of the ISTP, I think some of the parts are similar to me, but some are totally different from me. For example, the description says people whose type are ISTP prefer solitary activities and get exhausted by social interaction. I prefer solitary activities than social activities, but social interactions will not make me feel exhausted. At the energy part, I think that says me! I’m highly practical and down-to-earth. For the nature part, I think I’m objective and I think efficiency is very important, but I think cooperation is important too. In the tactics and identity parts, I think I’m the opposite with the description because I misunderstood the questions.
