1. convert arguments to array

2. use Array.forEach() to pick the property

   Object.prototype.pick = function(...args) {
      var obj = {};
      args.forEach(k => obj[k] = this[k])
      return obj
   }
   var a = {0:"a",1:"b",2:"c"}
   var b = a.pick('1','2')  //output will be {1: "b", 2: "c"}
