As a senior high school student, do you have a high IQ? Do you have a high EQ? Do you know there is a close connection between IQ and EQ? Perhaps you think IQ determines your success and failure. However, in fact, EQ also plays an important role. According to his academic research, Professor Salovey says when predicting someone's future success, EQ is more important than IQ. People are often mistaken in believing that those with high IQs deserve good grades in study, but there is a possibility that they will fail because of their low EQs. That is because those with higher EQs have strong personality, positive rather than passive attitudes towards study, work and life, thus they are less likely to be troubled by problems and easily gain success.
One of my classmates, Jack, has a high IQ and is gifted in maths, but his EQ is a little low. When Jack devotes himself to working out maths problems, he seems to forget the whole world.But he is allergic to others' assessment of him and full of anxiety. He has a strong desire to succeed. Sometimes he can't help losing temper for a small thing. Many students accuse him of being selfish, which makes him guilty and upset. I know by chance on TV that one's EQ can be improved, and this idea has been confirmed. To help him, I asked Jack to use his strength in maths to help others rather than only concentrate on his study. To our great satisfaction, after a month, Jack corrected his shortcomings and weaknesses and has become a popular student. He is very grateful to me., 作为一名高中生，你有高智商吗？你有高情商吗？你知道智商和情商有密切的联系吗？或许你认为智商决定着你的成功与失败，而实际上，情商也起着重要的作用。根据萨洛维教授的学术研究，他说当预测一个人未来的成就时，情商比智商还重要。人们常常误认为那些有高智商的人在学习上理应取得好的成绩，但有可能会因为他们的低情商而失败。那是因为那些有高情商的人有坚强的个性，以积极的而不是消极的态度对待学习、工作和生活，因此他们不大可能受问题的困扰，从而很容易获得成功。
我的一个同学杰克智商很高而且在数学方面很有天赋，但他的情商有点低。当他致力于解答数学题时，他似乎忘记了整个世界。但他对别人的评价很敏感，而且充满了焦虑。他强烈地渴望成功。有时候他会为了一件小事忍不住发脾气。许多同学都谴责他自私，这使他羞愧和沮丧。我偶然从电视上知道情商可以提高，而且这一说法已得到了证实。为了帮助杰克，我告诉他要利用自己在数学上的优势去帮助别人而不是只集中精力于他的学习。令我们非常满意的是，一个月后，杰克改正了自己的缺点和弱点，成了一个很受欢迎的学生。他非常感激我。
