高中英语北师大版选择性必修第三册课文英汉对照Unit7 Lesson 1 EQ: IQLesson 1 EQ:IQEQ: IQSuccess Comes with a High EQMost students do an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) test early in their school life. Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is what determines 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.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 tel Is you how intelligent you arc, your EQ tel Is you how we 11 you use your intelligence. Professor Salovey, who invented the term EQ, gives the following description: at work, it is IQ that gets you employed, but it is EQ that gets you promoted. Supported by his research, Professor Salovey suggests that when predicting someone * s future success, their character, as measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their TQ.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 students in your class, who you think deserve good grtides, sometimes end up failing exams? Perhaps their fai lure is because of their 1 ower EQ. People are often mistaken in thinking thcit those with high IQs always have high EQs as well. This association can 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.沙洛维教授或许是对的。举个例子,你有没有想过,为什么班里那些最聪明的学生,那 些你认为本应取得好成绩的学生,有时却考试不及格?也许他们的失败是因为情商较低。 人们常误以为高智商的人也同样拥有高情商。这种关联可能存在,但同样也有可能低智 商拥有高情商,或者高智商的人拥有低情商。Tt is generaly believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life. They are also less likely to be troubled by internal problems. On the other hand, there is little doubt that people with low EQs often have problems getting on with other people and dealing with difficult situations; hence they have a harder time adjusting in life and in their careers.人们普遍认为,情商高的人容易接纳新思想,对待生活积极乐观,很少为自身问题所困 扰。另一方面,情商低的人毫无疑问往往在与人相处、解决困难方面存在问题。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 with education. Some are trying to study the possibility of improving a person, s EQ, especially in terms of *people kills",such as understanding and communication.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。一些科学家正试图研究提升情商的可能性,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 announced the results of a study on senior secondary school students. When students were introduced to those who had disabilities, they found that, afterwards, the non-disabled students were more willing to help people with difficulties. Compared to students who had not been involved in the study, they al so showed a better understanding of 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. 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 帮助残隙人士。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。Altogether, the results of studies show that EQ is as important, if not more important than IQ. To get ahead in the world and lead a happy successful life requires getting on well with other people and being able to understand and react to situations in the best way possible. 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 sure that their students are receiving an education they really need, not solely based on IQ but on developing the entire character. 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,过上快乐乂成功的生活,必须要与他人融洽相处,并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学生接受真正所需的教育,是全人发展的教育,而 不仅仅是基于智商的教育。
