1、IQSuccess comes with a high EQMost students do an IQ test early in their school career. Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is _determines _well they are going to do in life. When they see other students _(do) _(well) than them, they usually believe that those students have
2、 _higher IQ and that there is nothing they can do _(change) facts. However, new research into EQ suggests that success _(be) not _ (simple) the result of a high IQ.While your IQ tells you _intelligent you are, your EQ tells you _well you use your _(intelligent). Professor Salovey, _invented the term
3、 EQ, _ (give) the _(follow)_(describe): At work, it is IQ _gets you _ (hire) but it is EQ _gets you_(promote). _(support) by his academic research, Professor Salovey _(suggest) that when _(predict) someones future success, their character, as _(measure) by EQ tests, might _(actual) matter _(much) th
4、an their IQ.Professor Salovey may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered _ some of the smartest students in your class, _you think _(deserve) good grades, sometimes end up _(fail) exams Perhaps their _(fail) is because _their low EQ. People are often _(mistake) in _(think) that those with h
5、igh IQs always have high EQs _well. This association can exist, but it is just as possible for someone with a low IQ _(have) a high EQ or someone with a high IQ _(have) a low EQ.It is _(general) believed _people with high EQs are open_new ideas and have positive attitudes _life. They are also less _
6、(like) to _(trouble) by problems. On _other hand, there is little doubt _ people with low EQs often have problems _(get) on with other people and _(deal) with difficult situations; thus they have a _(hard) time _ (survive) in life.People _(general) believe that a persons IQ _(determine) by birth. Ho
7、wever, most social scientists agree that EQ has a lot to do _education. Some are trying to study the _(possible) of _(improve) a persons EQ, _ (especial) in terms _“people skills”, such as _(understand) and _ (communicate).Professor Mayer, _(recognize) by many as a _(lead) expert in the study of cha
8、nges to peoples EQs, _(recent)_(announce) the result of a study _senior high school students. When normal students were introduced _ students _disabilities, they found that, afterwards, the normal students were more _(will) to help people _difficulties. They also showed a better _(understand) of the
9、 disabled students feelings _(compare) to students _had not been _(involve) in the study. There was also an obvious change in the disabled students attitudes. They became more positive about life and more _(will) to try new things.The results of studies such as these show that EQs is as important, i
10、f not more important than IQ. _(get) ahead in the world and lead a happy successful life means _(get) on with other people and _(be) able to understand and react _situations in the best way possible. This requires a high EQ-the _(high) the _(good). And the fact that it might be possible to raise EQs
11、 means that schools need to make sure that their students are receiving the education they really need, and know that their futures are not _(entire)_(determine) by their IQs.Lesson 4 First impressionsThe day that I met my best friend _the first time, I was full of _ (anxious). I was trying to do so

In fact, Im surprised there wasnt steam _ (come) out of my ears!I picked up my books, glared_her and whispered _(angry), “Thanks _yo
15、ur noise, Ive been unable to study. Youre so selfish!”I still hate _(think) of that moment. Let me tell you the rest of the story though.Because I left the library_such a hurry, I left my most important textbook _. It was only_I got home two hours later_I realized Id forgotten it and there_nothing I
16、 could do_the library was closed. I was_upset that I almost cried. Just then, the phone _(ring). I answered it and a gentle voice introduced the speaker as Jenny and asked if I was Jane.

Of course youve guessed _Jenny was. She
18、was the girl I had shouted _for singing. When I recognized her in the convenience store, I was filled with shame and apologized several times_my rude _(behave). I felt so _(guilt), but Jenny just laughed and told me she was glad to see that Id also left my glare in the library! I couldnt help _(laug

Were very much alike and we tell each other everything. _(be) honest, I trust her more than anyone else. I often think how _(luck) I am. If Jenny hadnt been a kin

I asked her _she had achieved success and she told me that _(be) curious, _(work) hard, and _(believe) in _was true made her the success she is today. “It was my mother_taught me to be curio
22、us. She had a great love of everything in the universe and she taught me to be _(interest) in mankind and nature, everything from plants_insects,” Junyan told me. “We would look in old nests to find birds feathers and we would even turn over stones to look at the little _ (create) there. I loved doi
23、ng that,” remembered Junyan. She said, “My mother was a strong character. Although there were lots of difficulties _(overcome), she never let her problems defeat her. She worked _(extreme) hard to support me through school and during my time at Fudan University in Shanghai. ” Her attitude _ life wil

She said she chose to be a _(journal) because it is important _ people grasp_is going on around them. I asked her if there was any special moment _made her realiz

Her report helped the people_had been affected and it also helped the government inspect the company and catch the _(guilt) people. “That is when I realized the _(import) of being a journalist, ” said Junyan. “_(write)
26、 that report wasnt easy, but I realized_people needed to know and so I didnt give up,” Junyan told me. This paid off because she won an award for the report. “I discovered then that as long as I am _(commit) and never give up I will be able to produce high quality reports.” Thats exactly what Wang J
