内化读文技法
依据论证方法,识别作者观点
本文是一篇论说文,论述了情商对于成功的重要性以及情商的可塑性。文章在论述过程中使用了道理论证、举例论证、因果论证、事实论证、引用论证等多种方式以及设问的写作手法使论证更令人信服。如作者在第三段采用了举例论证的方法为沙洛维教授的观点提供佐证。作者以考试成败与情商高低之间的因果关系为例,运用设问的修辞手法自问自答,阐明了考试失败与低情商有关,使作者的观点更加具有说服力,并启发读者思考。在阅读时注意通过分析论证方法,找出作者的观点。
(一)赏用词之妙
1.While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are, your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence.
赏析:句中使用了tell,比show更加形象地刻画出情商和智商的不同特点。
2.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.
赏析:句中使用副词“solely”这一高级表达,突出全面教育的特点。副词在句中主要用来加强程度,作状语,常用来修饰整个句子、动词或形容词。

________________________________________________________________________
(二)赏句式之高
1.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 IQ.
赏析:本句中Supported by his research为动词 ed短语作状语; that when predicting ...than their IQ为that引导的宾语从句,when predicting someone's future success为状语从句的省略,as measured by EQ tests为as引导的非限制性定语从句。该句句式凝练,提出了教授的新观点。
2.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.
赏析:本句中that it might be possible to raise EQs为that引导的同位语从句;that schools need ...the entire character和that their students are receiving an education为that引导的宾语从句;they really need为省略关系词的定语从句。该句说明了提高情商的途径。

(三)赏逻辑之巧
It is generally 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.
赏析:本段对高情商的人和低情商的人进行了比较。用On the other hand引出下文,提出相反的一方面。用hence顺承上文,引出结果。前后衔接自然,易被读者接受。

Work to live, live to work
If you were asked the question,“Do you work to live or Some might say that we work because we have to, not least because we need the salary that enables us to be financially independent. It studies are completed.Indeed, it could be argued that our education is geared towards preparing us for a life of work.However, earning a living is by no means the only reason why we work — there .
Through the work we do, our goals can be attained and our dreams achieved.All of us have had dreams of one kind or another and work often enables us to pursue those dreams.Henry David Thoreau said, “...if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.” Yang Liwei, for example, driven by his passion for flying, became a pilot and then China's first astronaut in space. work allows us the opportunity to be engaged in something we are fond of, and consequently, it can give us a great sense of achievement and satisfaction.
Work can also help develop our skills, thus providing room for personal growth.When we work, we Our rapidly changing workplace makes it necessary for us to keep up and develop new skills.Twenty years ago, positions in social technologies or energy efficiency did not even exist, and it is difficult to anticipate the new positions which will emerge twenty years from now.However, it is certain that no one can afford to be satisfied with the status quo.In order to better adapt ourselves to new circumstances, we must be ready and willing to acquire new skills.This can add to our sense of achievement and our knowledge that we are developing as individuals while we move along our chosen career path.
Not only does work benefit us personally, it also contributes to the health of society.At the most basic level, different types of jobs are like gears in a machine.They work to ensure that the machine we call “society” functions properly.In a successful, stable and productive society, all jobs are equally important and no one is superior to another, so we should not have prejudice against any of them.Whether we are scientists, lawyers, doctors, public servants, consultants, clerks, receptionists or butchers, we all make our respective contributions.Moreover, there are people who choose to step out of their comfort zone and commit themselves to working for the benefit of others.For example, teachers in remote rural areas are devoted to changing the lives of the people with less access to the advantages enjoyed by many others.In this way, we work to advance our communities and bring success to our nation.
Wherever life takes us and whatever choices are laid out before us, something worth remembering is that our work, when done well,will not only help us make a living but also and for others.We can take pride in the knowledge that hard work is essential for our individual well being as well as for the benefit of our society as a whole.

As people worldwide focus on a healthy planet, renewable (可再生的) energy engineers are key.These engineers work on cool projects that use the power of the sun, wind, and water to create energy.Their work combats climate change, leading to a cleaner world.Here are details.
Key responsibilities:
System Design: It's like being an inventor who figures out the best way to turn sunlight, wind, or water into electricity that we can use to power things like homes and schools.
Project Management: This is like being the leader of a team working on a school project, but instead, it's for big energy projects.The engineer makes sure everything is done right on time, and doesn't cost too much money.
Technical Research: Here, the engineer is like a detective or a scientist, always looking for new and better ways to make energy.They try to find methods that are more effective and less expensive.
Maintenance and Optimization: This part is about taking care of the energy systems that are already built.The engineer checks the systems, fixes any problems, and makes improvements so they work even better.
Skill requirements:
Engineering background: A degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field.
Analytical Skills: Abilities to analyze data and system performance to propose improvements.
Innovative Thinking: Maintain (保持) an openness to new technologies and methods, constantly seeking innovation.

Many people believe it is crucial to have gender equality in the workplace.But achieving equality means overturning centuries of social norms.Recent research by Oxford University suggests that sometimes it is women themselves who are limiting their career opportunities.
The study surveyed 3,698 students from 63 schools and colleges across the UK .It found out that female students tend to choose “worthwhile” jobs, while male students often go after jobs that offer big salaries.Researchers noticed that secondary school girls said they were more willing to accept low-income jobs like charity work or museum positions, while boys focused more on getting high-prestige careers, reported The Guardian.
“Compared with boys, girls are more concerned about each aspect of job application.They are more interested in careers that offer job security, in a cause they ‘feel good about’,” Jonathan Black, director of the Oxford University Careers Service, told The Telegraph.
China faces a similar gender gap.This month, a poll by Chongqing Morning Post indicates that female college graduates care more about their working environment.As for male graduates, career prospects are more important.“This has the knock-on effect that girls may be self-limiting their choice of careers, especially because the types of jobs they seek often have informal entry processes, like getting an internship or doing unpaid work,” Black said.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个研究发现,女性侧重关注工作环境,更倾向于从事有保障的职业。
4.What kind of job do girl graduates tend to look for

√
6.The author develops the article mainly .
A.by comparison B.by classification
C.by order of space D.by order of time
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中“It found out that female students ... reported The Guardian.”以及第三段中“Compared with boys ...in a cause they ‘feel good about’”可知,文章在论述的时候是将男学生和女学生的职业选择进行了对比,故推断本文的写作手法主要是对比法。
√

A.Girls are fighting against restrictions in jobs.
B.There are not many jobs open to girls after graduation.
C.The gender gap in employment has narrowed recently in China.

√
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Compared with boys ...told The Telegraph.”以及最后一段中“China faces a similar gender gap.”可知,在职业选择上的确存在性别差异。

How to be more productive in your first hour of work
After you grab a coffee, chat with your co-workers and scan your emails, the first hour of your workday has blown by. 8 .
Have breakfast before work
9 .Sitting in front of the computer with food and coffee make you more likely to surf blogs and social media instead of jumping to important tasks.You can't really work when you've got a spoon in hand and are constantly reaching for something.
Make the right to-do list
Most people write to-do lists with easy tasks on top so they can feel good about crossing those items off. 10 .Instead, organize your list with long-term goals on top to remind you of what's most important, and daily goals at the bottom to plan how you'll reach them.Daily tasks should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and have a timetable.
11
Instead of scanning through your email or social media, figure out what's challenging you the most.Ideally, tackle the thing that most has your attention.Often it's the thing that's most bothering you. Getting that stressor out of the way will make you more relaxed throughout the day.
Set a timer
Force yourself to stay in the zone by setting strict periods of uninterrupted work. Setting a 50-minute timer will give a long enough period to get into the zone and make progress in your work before taking a 10-minute break. 12 , but a separate kitchen timer or hourglass are recommended for a visual reminder that keeps your hands away from the distraction of your phone notifications.
A.Remind yourself of the big picture
B.Most phones have built-in stopwatches
C.Here are some ways to keep you energetic
D.Start with the task that you think about most
E.Here's the recipe for a more productive morning
F.But this method helps self-esteem, not productivity
G.Don't wait until you get to the office to have your morning yoghurt
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何高效率地开始一天 的工作。

Key responsibilities:
System Design: It's like being an inventor who figures out the best way to turn sunlight, wind, or water into electricity that we can use to power things like homes and schools.
Project Management: This is like being the leader of a team working on a school project, but instead, it's for big energy projects.The engineer makes sure everything is done right on time, and doesn't cost too much money.
Technical Research: Here, the engineer is like a detective or a scientist, always looking for new and better ways to make energy.They try to find methods that are more effective and less expensive.
Maintenance and Optimization: This part is about taking care of the energy systems that are already built.The engineer checks the systems, fixes any problems, and makes improvements so they work even better.

Many people believe it is crucial to have gender equality in the workplace.But achieving equality means overturning centuries of social norms.Recent research by Oxford University suggests that sometimes it is women themselves who are limiting their career opportunities.
The study surveyed 3,698 students from 63 schools and colleges across the UK .It found out that female students tend to choose “worthwhile” jobs, while male students often go after jobs that offer big salaries.Researchers noticed that secondary school girls said they were more willing to accept low income jobs like charity work or museum positions, while boys focused more on getting high prestige careers, reported The Guardian.
“Compared with boys, girls are more concerned about each aspect of job application.They are more interested in careers that offer job security, in a cause they ‘feel good about’,” Jonathan Black, director of the Oxford University Careers Service, told The Telegraph.
China faces a similar gender gap.This month, a poll by Chongqing Morning Post indicates that female college graduates care more about their working environment.As for male graduates, career prospects are more important.“This has the knock on effect that girls may be self limiting their choice of careers, especially because the types of jobs they seek often have informal entry processes, like getting an internship or doing unpaid work,” Black said.
4.What kind of job do girl graduates tend to look for
A.Well paid. B.Promising.
C.Challenging. D.Safe and easy.
5.What's the article mainly about
A.Women's self limit in career.
B.Social gender discrimination.
C.Men's attitude towards jobs.
D.Job application in the UK and China.
6.The author develops the article mainly ________.
A.by comparison B.by classification
C.by order of space D.by order of time
7.What can we learn from the passage
A.Girls are fighting against restrictions in jobs.
B.There are not many jobs open to girls after graduation.
C.The gender gap in employment has narrowed recently in China.
D.Research in the UK shows that the gender gap exists in employment.

How to be more productive in your first hour of work
After you grab a coffee, chat with your co workers and scan your emails, the first hour of your workday has blown by.__8__.
Have breakfast before work
__9__.Sitting in front of the computer with food and coffee make you more likely to surf blogs and social media instead of jumping to important tasks.You can't really work when you've got a spoon in hand and are constantly reaching for something.
Make the right to do list
Most people write to do lists with easy tasks on top so they can feel good about crossing those items off.__10__.Instead, organize your list with long term goals on top to remind you of what's most important, and daily goals at the bottom to plan how you'll reach them.Daily tasks should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and have a timetable.
__11__
Instead of scanning through your email or social media, figure out what's challenging you the most.Ideally, tackle the thing that most has your attention.Often it's the thing that's most bothering you. Getting that stressor out of the way will make you more relaxed throughout the day.
Set a timer
Force yourself to stay in the zone by setting strict periods of uninterrupted work. Setting a 50 minute timer will give a long enough period to get into the zone and make progress in your work before taking a 10 minute break. __12__, but a separate kitchen timer or hourglass are recommended for a visual reminder that keeps your hands away from the distraction of your phone notifications.
A.Remind yourself of the big picture
B.Most phones have built in stopwatches
C.Here are some ways to keep you energetic
D.Start with the task that you think about most
E.Here's the recipe for a more productive morning
