Now there is a new umbrella that can solve both of those problems. Oombrella, a smart umbrella from Paris-based Wezzoo. started
12、 a move on Kickstarter Thursday to bring the clever invention to life. The research team behind it says that the umbrella will tell you through an app on your smartphone if it is going to rain in the next 15 minutes as well as let you know on your phone if you have left it behind. The product also c

Eve
18、n if they never see their results, they feel that their 1Q is what determines how well they are going to do in life. 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 this fact. However, new
19、research into EQ suggests that success is not simply the result of a high IQ. While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are. your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence. Professor Salovey suggests that when predicting someones future success, their EQ might actually count more than their
20、IQ. 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? Perhaps their failure is because of their low EQ. It is generally believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive att
21、itudes towards life. They are also less likely to be troubled by 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; thus they have a harder time surviving in life. The good news is that m
22、ost social scientists agree that EQ has a lot to do with education. Compared with IQ that seems to be fixed the moment you were born, EQ could be improved with right approaches. Some are trying to study the possibility of improving a persons EQ, especially when it comes to “peoples skills”, such as
23、understanding and communication. To get ahead in the world and lead a happy successful life means getting on with other people and being able to understand and react to situations in the best way. This requires a high EQ the higher, the better.12Why do most students think others have a better perfor
24、mance?ABecause they have a higher EQ.BBecause their teachers help them.CBecause they have more luck.DBecause they have a higher IQ.13What does the underlined word “count” in paragraph 2 mean?ASum.BMatter.CList.DName14What will people with a high EQ usually do?AThey dont accept new ideasBThey are tro
25、ubled by problems.CThey get along well with othersDThey have negative attitudes15As for EQ, which would the author agree with:AIt is fixed the moment we were born.BIt has little connection with education.CIt can be improved with right methodsDIt will surely lead to an unsuccessful life.Trust is the
26、basic of any relationship in both a professional and a personal capacity (能力). Here are some ways to build trust and be trustworthy.Be always honest. Honesty is a quality that must be developed fully if you desire to build trust with others. Half-truths and white lies result in disasters. 16 Communi
27、cate effectively. Poor communication is one of the main reasons why trust is unable to be developed in any environment. 17 It can cause disagreements and the breaking of trust. If you want to avoid any issues, its important to communicate openly and freely with other involved parties in the beginnin
28、g. 18 Promises are not meant to be broken. Once you make a promise, its as binding (必须遵守的) as legal papers. Its important that you honor your commitments if youre interested in building trust.Do not be too quick in making decisions. There is no need to take too much pressure if youre faced with a to
29、ugh situation. 19 If the other part asks you to make a commitment immediately and you have reservations about it, you can refuse the task and say no in the beginning.Take the necessary time. 20 Its an ongoing process that needs time to take root and develop effectively. Steady progress is possible o
30、nly if its a regular activity; therefore, prepare to take small steps if you are looking for ways to build trust. Focus on the desired result and do not expect results in the beginning.AKeep your word.BDont take everything for sure.CTrust cant be built in a short time.DTherefore, avoid them if you a
31、re trying to build trust.EThe failure to explain your stand may cause unpleasant results.FYoud better take the time to consider your way from every aspect.GMake sure you are paying attention to old and new relationships equally.二、完形填空When I was eight years old, Mother told me to put my coat on becau
