Unit 7Lesson 1 EQ:IQ第一课 EQ:IQSuccess Comes with a High EQMost students do an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) test early in their school life. Even if they never see theirresults, they feel that their IQ is what determines how well they are going to do in life. When they see other studentsdoing better than them, they usually believe that those students have a higher IQ and that there is nothing they can doto change their situation. However, new research into EQ (Emotional Quotient) suggests that success is not simplythe result of a high IQ.大多数学生会在学生生涯早期做智商测试。即使从未看到过测试结果,他们也认为是智商决定了自己日后生活中的表现。当看到其他学生比自己优秀,他们通常会认为那些学生智商更高,无论做什么也改变不了自身这一劣势。然而,最新的情商研究表明,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 youuse your intelligence.Professor Salovey,who invented the term EQ,gives thefollowing description: at work, it is IQ that gets you employed, but it is EQ that getsyou promoted.Supported by his research, Professor Salovey suggests that whenpredicting someone's future success, their character, as measured by EQ tests,mightactually matter more than their IQ.智商表明你到底有多聪明,而情商表明你如何善用智慧。最先使用情商一词的沙洛维教授这样描述:帮你找到工作的是智商,但让你升职的是情商。在其研究的基础上,沙洛维教授建议,在预测某人未来的成功时,由情商测定的性格实际上可能比智商更重要。Professor Salovey may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the smartest studentsin your class, who you think deserve good grades, sometimes end up failing exams? Perhaps their failure is becauseof their lower EQ. People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well. T...
