1.【线索词】theory 【定位处】首段首句
【解 析】选[D]。
本题涉及到情感智商这个理论的提出。
首段首句提出,这个理论首次引起公众注意的是在戈尔曼的书发表之后,然后话锋一转,事实上,这个理论本身是由彼得·塞拉维和约翰·梅耶两名美国人提出的,所以这个理论的提出还是应该归功于这两位美国人,故答案为[D]。
情感智商包含五大内涵,故排除[C]。
【设题处】转折处设题
2.【线索词】controllingemotions 【定位处】第二段倒数第四句和第五句
【解 析】选[A]。

其他几项表述错误。
【设题处】举例处设题
3.【线索词】intangible 【定位处】第三段第五句
【解 析】选[D]。
本题涉及到情感智商是无形资产的问题。
该段第五句提到,情绪不是有形资产(tangible),很难分析和量化(analyzeandquantify),它是以上所列出的几点的综合(compounded),并不能孤立处理(doesnotoperateinisolation),intangible意为“有形资产”,故答案为[D]。
【设题处】事实处设题
4.【线索词】Misreadingthebehavior 【定位处】第三段倒数第二句
【解 析】选[C]。
本题涉及到对他人行为的误解。
该段倒数第二句提到,然而这却发生在我们所有人际关系的日常基础(happensonadailybasis)——甚至误解那些和我们很亲近的人的行为!
,本句中的this指的是破折号后的misreadingthebehavior,故选[C]。
其他三项都是对文章的误解。
【设题处】破折号处设题
5.【线索词】Employers 【定位处】第三段末句
【解 析】选[C]。
本题涉及到雇主的情况。
该段末句提到,Andsoitmakeseconomicsenseforbusinesstobeawareofitanddevelopstrategiesforemployingpeopleanddealingwiththeiremployees,也就是说,雇主因为涉及到工资,应该对雇员的情商进行考查,故答案为[C]。
【设题处】举例处设题
6.【线索词】GolemanlinksEmotionalIntelligence 【定位处】倒数第二段第二句
【解 析】选[B]。
本题涉及到戈尔曼对情感智商的看法。
该段第二句提到,戈尔曼自己甚至曾今建议,情感智商仅仅是描述能力的一种新方法,所以说,戈尔曼将情感智商与能力练习在一起,故答案为[B]。
【设题处】观点处设题
7.【线索词】socialinteractivities 【定位处】末段
【解 析】选[D]。
本题涉及到情感智商理论的出现与社会合作行为的关系。
该段提到,但是情感智商作为理论的出现说明了过去在家庭环境和其他社会关系中占据重要地位的社交技能正在快速的消失,故答案为[D]。
【设题处】观点处设题
8.【线索词】Knowingone'semotions 【定位处】首段末句
【解 析】recognitionandidentification。
本题涉及到自我情绪认知的内容。
该段末句提到,情感智商包括五大内涵:
第一是自我认知,即能够认识(recognize)到自己的情绪状态,有能力辨别(identify)自己正在经历的情绪,甚至承认嫉妒不是一种特别令人舒服的情感,本题需要填名词形式,所以需要填recognize和identify的名词形式:
recognitionandidentification。
【设题处】事实处设题
9.【线索词】recognizeemotionsinotherpeople 【定位处】第三段首句
【解 析】havingsocialradar。
本题涉及到认知他人情绪的问题。
该段首句提到,认知他人的情绪。
也就是说,事实上,拥有或发展“社会雷达”(socialradar),也就是说学会读懂周围群体和个体的“天气系统”。
