Success Comes with a High EQ
Most students do an IQ (Intelligence① Quotient) test early in their school life. Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is what determines② how well they are going to do in life. When they see other students doing better than them, they usually believe that those students have a higher IQ and that there is nothing they can do to change their situation. However, new research into EQ (Emotional Quotient) suggests that success is not simply the result of a high IQ.
even if 引导让步状语从句,主句中that their IQ is what determines how well they are going to do in life是宾语从句,作feel的宾语;宾语从句中含有表语从句what determines how well they are going to do in life,表语从句中又含有宾语从句how well they are going to do in life。
①intelligence/In'telədʒəns/n.智力,智慧,理解力
intelligent/In'telədʒənt/adj. 机智的,有才智的;有智慧的,聪明的
IQ=Intelligence Quotient智商
EQ=Emotional Quotient情商
②determine/dI'tɜːmIn/vt.决定,直接影响;测定,确定
determined adj. 坚决的;有决心的
determination n.决心;决定
成功来自高情商
大多数学生在学习阶段的早期就做了智商测验。即使从未看到自己的测验结果,他们仍然感觉自己的智商决定了他们将来在生活中的发展状况。当看到其他学生比自己做得好时,他们通常会认为那些学生的智商更高,并且他们对改变这些事实无能为力。然而,对情商的最新研究表明,成功并不仅仅是高智商的结果。
While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are, your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence. Professor Salovey, who invented the term EQ, gives the following description③: at work, it is IQ that gets you employed④, but it is EQ that gets you promoted. Supported by his research, Professor Salovey suggests that when predicting⑤ someone's future success, their character, as measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their IQ.
本句包含两个强调结构,分别强调主语IQ和EQ。
supported...为过去分词短语作状语;主句中含有that引导的宾语从句;宾语从句中含有when 引导的时间状语从句。
③give the following description 给出下面的描述
④employ/Im'plɔI/vt.& n. 雇用
get sb. employed 被录用 (get sb. done 使某人被……;处于……的状态)
⑤predict/prI'dIkt/vt.预言,预料,预测
你的智商表明你到底有多聪明,而你的情商表明你如何善用智慧。提出“情商”这一说法的沙洛维教授指出,在职场,一个人的智商决定你是否被录用,但情商却决定了你能否被提拔。沙洛维教授在他学术研究的基础上提出,在预测一个人未来的成功时,由情商测定的性格实际上可能比智商更为重要。
Professor Salovey may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the smartest students in your class, who you think deserve⑥ good grades, sometimes end up⑦ failing exams? Perhaps their failure is because of⑧ their lower⑨ EQ. People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well⑩. This association⑪can exist, but it is just as possible for someone with a low IQ to have a high EQ or someone with a high IQ to have a low EQ.
⑥deserve/dI'zɜːv/vt.应得,应受到(奖赏或惩罚)
deserve good grades 应取得好成绩
⑦end up doing sth.以做……结束
⑧because of因为
⑨lower/'ləʊə/adj.(数字或数量)较小的;较低级的;下面的
⑩as well 也,还
⑪association/əˌsəʊsi'eIʃən/n.联系;协会,社团
沙洛维教授也许是对的。例如,你是否曾有过这样的困惑:为什么班里有些你认为应该得到好分数的最聪明的学生有时却考试不及格?他们的失败也许是因为他们的低情商。人们经常错误地认为高智商的人也总是拥有高情商。这种联系可能存在,但是一个低智商的人有高情商或者一个高智商的人有低情商也是有可能的。
It is generally believed that people with high EQs are open to⑫ new ideas and have positive attitudes towards⑬ life. They are also less likely to be⑭ troubled by internal⑮ problems. On the other
hand⑯, there is little doubt that people with low EQs often have problems getting⑰ on with⑱ other people and dealing with⑲ difficult situations; hence⑳ they have a harder time adjusting㉑ in life and in their careers.
it作形式主语,后面的that引导主语从句。
that引导同位语从句,解释说明doubt的内容。
⑫be open to愿意接受的;对……开放
⑬have positive attitudes towards sth. 对……有积极的态度
⑭be likely to do sth.可能做某事
⑮internal/In'tɜːnl/adj.内心的;内部的;国内的
⑯on the other hand 另一方面
⑰have problems/trouble (in) doing sth. 做某事有困难
【同义】have a hard time doing sth. 做某事有困难
⑱get on with 与……相处
⑲deal with 处理,应付
⑳hence adv.今后;因此
㉑adjust/ə'dʒʌst/vi.& vt.适应,(使)习惯;调整,调节
人们普遍认为,高情商的人往往善于接受新观点,并且对生活持积极的态度。他们也较少被自身问题所困扰。另一方面,几乎毫无疑问的是,低情商的人在与别人相处和处理困难情况时经常存在问题,因此,他们适应生活和职业生涯中的变化也就更困难。
People generally believe that a person's IQ is determined by birth. However, most social scientists agree that EQ has a lot to do with㉒ education. Some are trying to study the possibility of improving a person's EQ, especially in terms of㉓ “people skills”, such as understanding and communication.
㉒have...to do with...与……有……关系
㉓in terms of 谈及,就……而言
人们普遍认为,人的智商是一出生就决定了的。然而,大多数社会学家认为,情商与教育有很大关系。一些社会学家正试图研究提高情商的可能性,特别是“人际技能”方面,例如:理解和沟通。
Professor Mayer, recognised by many as a leading expert in the study of changes to people's EQs, recently announced㉔ the results of a study on senior secondary school students. When students were introduced to those who had disabilities㉕, they found that, afterwards, the non-disabled students were more willing㉖ to help people with difficulties. Compared to㉗ students who had not been involved in㉘ the study, they also showed a better understanding of㉙ the disabled students' feelings. There was also an obvious change in the disabled students' attitudes. They became more positive about life and more willing to try new things.
㉔announce/ə'naʊns/vt.宣布,宣告,公布
㉕disability/ˌdIsə'bIləti/n.伤残,残障,障碍
disabled/dIs'eIbəld/adj.残障的,残疾的,有学习障碍的
the disabled 残疾人(表示一类人)
㉖willing/'wIlI/adj.乐意、愿意(做某事)的
be willing to do sth. 乐意去做某事
unwilling adj.不愿意的;不乐意的
㉗compared to与……相比较
㉘be involved in 涉及,卷入
㉙show a better understanding of...对……有更好的理解
梅尔教授是公认的人类情商变化研究领域的顶级专家,他最近公布了一项针对高中生的研究结果。他们发现,介绍学生认识有残障的学生之后,这些身体健全的学生会更愿意帮助残障人士。与未参与这一研究的学生相比,他们能更好地理解残障学生的感受。同时,残障学生的态度也发生了明显的变化,他们对待生活更加积极,更愿意尝试新事物。
Altogether㉚, the results of studies show that EQ is as important, if not more important than IQ. To get ahead㉛ in the world and lead a happy successful life㉜ requires getting on well with other people and being able to understand and react㉝ to situations in the best way possible㉞. A high EQ is necessary for this—the higher the better. And the fact that it might be possible to raise EQs means that schools need to make sure㉟ that their students are receiving an education they really need, not solely㊱ based on㊲ IQ but on developing the entire character.
that引导宾语从句;if引导的状语从句省略了it is。
该句为“the+比较级,the+比较级”结构,表示“越……,越……”。
㉚altogether/ˌɔːltə'ɡeðə/adv.总而言之,总的说来;完全,全部
㉛get ahead 取得进步,获得成功
㉜lead/live a(n)...life 过……生活
㉝react/ri'ækt/vi. (作出)反应
react to 对……作出反应;回应
㉞in the best way possible 以可能的最好的方式
㉟make sure 确信
㊱solely/'səʊl-li/adv. 唯一地,仅仅
㊲be based on 以……为基础
总之,一系列研究表明,情商即使不比智商更重要,至少也是同等重要。要在这个世界上出人头地,过上快乐又成功的生活,必须与他人相处融洽,能够以最好的方式理解和应对各种状况。要做到这些,高情商必不可少,而且是越高越好。此外,情商是可以后天提高的,这就意味着学校需要确保他们的学生接受真正所需的教育,是学生整体性格发展的教育,而不仅仅是基于智商的教育。

A
Both IQ and EQ are considered important to our career success.But nowadays,as technology redefines how we work,the qualities we need are developing too.Take adaptability quotient (AQ),a subjective set of qualities loosely defined as the ability to improve in an environment of fast and frequent change.
Every profession will require adaptability and flexibility.Your IQ gets you through the examinations to become qualified for the job.Your EQ helps you connect with an interviewer,land a job,and develop relationships with customers and colleagues.Then,when systems change or aspects of work are automated,you will need AQ to adjust to this change and adapt to new ways of performing your role.
All three quotients are somewhat complementary,since they all help you solve problems and therefore adapt.AQ is now increasingly being sought at the hiring level.While there is no specific method of measuring adaptability like an IQ test,companies are changing their hiring processes to help identify people who may be high in it.
Natalie Fratto suggests three ways AQ might show in potential candidates: if they can picture possible versions of the future by asking “what if” questions;if they can question incorrect information of an authority;and if they enjoy exploration or seek out new experiences.
Experts say you can work to develop AQ.First,limit distractions and learn to focus so that you can determine what adaptations to make.Second,ask uncomfortable questions to develop courage and normalize fear.Third,be curious about things that fascinate you by having more conversations rather than searching for the answer on the Internet and something that reduces your ability to solve difficult challenges.
Because of automation,many people in the world may need to be reskilled.We may not all be comfortable with the pace of change—but we can prepare.The ability to learn,change,grow,experiment will become far more important than subject knowledge.

By the time she turned 18,Khadijah Williams had attended twelve schools.She had lived in shelters,in parks,and in motels,never in a permanent residence for more than a few months.She had been laughed at and looked down upon by students at a dozen schools who thought of her as “different”.
Homeless since early childhood,Khadijah struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students.However,academic achievement proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again.For instance,at the age of 9,she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam,and her teacher told her she was “gifted”.From that moment forward,Khadijah decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category.“I was so proud of being smart.I often heard my fellow students say,‘You got the easy way out because you're homeless,’” she told The LA Times.“But I never saw it as an excuse about living a less successful life.”
By the second year of high school,she realized that she could not succeed in getting the education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer.She talked to teachers and advisers who helped her apply for summer community college classes,scholarships,and enrichment programs.And in the 11th grade,when she enrolled at Jefferson High School,she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a.m.and not getting home until 11 p.m.
Here's the end of the story—when Khadijah poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application,she was accepted.
