握紧你的拳头

       一次,我去拜会一位事业上颇有成就的朋友,闲聊中谈起了命运。我问:“这个世界到底有没有命运?”他说:“当然有啊。”我再问:“命运究竟是怎么回事?既然命中注定,那奋斗又有什么用?”

       他没有直接回答我的问题。但笑着抓起我的左手,说不妨先看看我的手相,帮我算算命。给我讲了生命线、爱情线、事业线等诸如此类的话之后,突然,他对我说:“把手伸好,照我的样子做一个动作。”他的动作就是:举起左手,慢慢地而且越来越紧地握起拳头。末了,他问:“握紧了没有?”我有些迷惑,答道:“握紧啦。”他又问:“那些命运线在哪里?”我机械地回答:“在我的手里呀。”他再追问:“请问,命运在哪里?”我如当头棒喝,恍然大悟:___________________     ________。

1、根据文意,将最后一句话补充完整。

     ______________________________________________________________________                              

2、读完这个故事,我想,当我们握紧自己的拳头时,请再看看拳头,你会发现你的生命线有一部分还留在外面,没有被握住。所以有人说命运绝大部分掌握在自己手里,但还有一部分掌握在“上天”手里。你同意这种看法吗?试发表一点看法。

A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation early on were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible .

Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test.

The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.   

Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people’s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.

EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one’s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the elements for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.
