A recent survey shows that the alarming rate of child suicide(自杀) in Hong Kong, raising levels of stress and anxiety among young people, increasing conflicts between children and teachers, and children’s complaints that their parents do not understand their problems—all point to a drop in “emotional quotient” (EQ) (情商), the ability to handle relationships.
EQ is defined as the ability to deal with oneself and others effectively. High EQ, psychologists say, is easy to spot. Some of the greatest humanitarian (人道主义的) leaders have high EQ, along with successful managers and inspirational and respected teachers. The problem is not how to spot high EQ but to improve on low EQ, so society as a whole can benefit.
In the United States, declining EQ among young people is seen as one of the factors behind rising young people’s crime because youths fail to understand others’ feelings—one of the key components of EQ. While the situation in Hong Kong is not so bad, there are warning signs that the levels of anxiety among youth may become critical. Declining EQ among Hong Kong teenagers has been acknowledged by several studies including a key study by the education concern group, the Learning-Teacher Association, which found a high degree of anxiety among students over the future and also that young people lacked confidence in dealing with problems. Parents and teachers will also need to develop their own EQ skills in order to deal with them effectively.
Daniel Goleman cites a number of basic elements of high EQ: first, awareness of your feelings as you experience them which is very important to making good decisions in life; second, feeling or awareness of what others are feeling. “90% of emotional information is expressed non-verbally and people vary in their ability to pick it up,” Dr. Goleman says in his book.
Dr. Goleman argues that without high EQ even highly-educated, highly-intelligent people will not find success in life. Or those with low EQ, even though they may be brilliant, tend to lack feeling and impulse control. They fail easily, and they are easily intolerant and often aggressive in interpersonal relations. Some educational psychologists believe work on EQ may be important in Hong Kong with its high rate of suicide among school children. EQ test may be able to help predict those most at risk, and those least able to deal with their own emotions or unable to deal with others, including parents and teachers.

Phyllis Lee of Singapore knew something wasn’t right. Her younger son, Alex, then six years old, was getting good grades in his private kindergarten classes. But Lee realized something was wrong when Alex came home one day, crying, with “zeroes” on his Chinese spelling test. Lee decided to investigate. According to Lee, the teacher would frequently describe Alex’s Chinese writing as ‘ghost writings’ and made him a laughing stock in class instead of helping him out.

Lee, 46, spent the next 12 months teaching Alex and still helps him when necessary. She not only taught him the formation of the Chinese words but also their origin so that he could understand better, often taking more than an hour to read a simple paragraph. Visits to the library and surfing the Internet kept her up to speed on teaching materials. Alex’s grades improved and by the end of Year One, he had become one of the top students in Chinese in his class.

Alex is keeping an A plus average in all subjects, and his mother’s involvement is a big reason behind it. Alex, now 11, recently wrote a book recording his struggles with Chinese, which an international education center has published to inspire its students. He sometimes writes for local student magazines as well.

Lee has always had input into the education of Alex. She reads to him “all the time.” As a result, he is an eager reader who regularly visit the library.

To Lee, one of the most valuable things she does is to take turns with her husband to drive Alex to school. “We’d talk along the way. Talking enables me to have a better understanding of my child and reminds me of changes every now and then so that I know when to get involved, she says.”

60．Alex arrived home with tears because           .

       A．he failed in the Chinese exam                  B．his teacher punished him

       C．he didn’t want to learn Chinese             D．his classmates did him wrong

61．Alex succeeded in learning Chinese with          .

       A．his teacher’s guide                               B．his classmates’ help

       C．his father’s influence                            D．his mother’s instruction

62．For Alex the great achievement recently is that         .

       A．he gets A’s in some subjects                  B．he wrote a book

       C．he earns some money                             D．he understands Chinese better

63．Lee’s education method succeeds mainly because of her         .

      A．involvement         B．communication    C．tolerance             D．encouragement
