Lesson 1 EQ:IQ.

Success comes with a high EQ.

成功来自于高情商

Most students do an IQ test early in their school career.

大部分学生在开始学习生涯之前都会进行智商测试

Even if they never see their results they feel that their IQ is what determines how well they are going to do in life. 即使他们看不测试结果，他们认为智商决定了他们将来生活的好坏。

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 facts.

当他们看到别人做得比他好的时候，他总是愿意相信那些学生的智商比自己高，自己做什么也改变不了这个事实。However, new research into EQ suggests that success is not simply the result of a high IQ.

然而，关于情商新的研究指出显示成功不简单地依靠高智商

While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are，your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence.

你的智商表明你的聪明程度，而你的情商则表明你能否很好的利用聪明才智

Professor Salovey, who invented the term EQ, gives the following description.

萨洛维教授提出情商这一概念并对其做了如下解释

At work, it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.

在职场上，一个人的智商决定了他能否被录用，而情商则决定了他能否得到提拔

Supported by his academic research

在他的学术研究基础上

Professor Salovey suggests that when predicting someone's future success their character, as measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their IQ.

萨洛维教授提出：在预测一个人未来的成功时，他们的性格，即通过情商测试来测量，也许比他的智商更为重要。Professor Salovey may be correct.

萨洛维教授也许是对的

For example, have you ever wondered why some of the smartest students in your class who you think deserve good grades, sometimes end up failing exams?

例如，你是否有过这样的困惑：为什么班里有些聪明的学生，你认为应该得到好的分数却难过考试关？

Perhaps their failure is because of their low EQ.

他们的失败也许是因为他们的情商低

People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well.

人们经常错误地认为高智商的人总是拥有高情商

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.

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情商的人有低智商也是有可能的。

It is generally believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life. 人们通常相信高情商的人善于接受新观点，对生活持积极的态度，

They are also less likely to be troubled by problems.

他们较少被问题所困扰

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 thus they have a harder time surviving in life.

另一方面，毫无疑问的是低情商的人，经常在与别人相处和处理困难时有问题，因此生活得比较艰难。
