21、oleon III would be with his army in northern Italy,so he travelled to the city of Solferino to lookfor him.Dunant arrived on the night of 24 June and found a battlefield filled with 40,000 dead and wounded soldiers.Dunantwas horrified by the scene and was filled with compassion for the wounded men.A
22、t once,Dunant began attending to thewounded men.In the days that followed,he led local people in helping take care of the wounded and dying.They lookedafter the soldiers without regard to country or uniform,saying,“All are brothers!?,When Dunant returned to Switzerland the following month,he wrote a
23、 book about his experience called A Memory ofSolferino.Within the book,he described the battle,its costs,and the chaotic circumstances afterwards.He also developed theidea that in the future,a neutral organization should exist to provide care to wounded soldiers.Dunant began to travelthrough Europe
24、to distribute the book and promote his ideas.His book was largely positively received.This eventually led tothe forming of the International Committee of the Red Cross in 1863.The first act of the Red Cross was to organize an international conference(the Geneva Convention)where countriesadopted guid
25、elines and measures for protecting the wounded and medical workers during and after battles.While the RedCross is mostly tasked with helping people in times of war,it also responds to natural disasters and gives aid to people whohave to leave their homes.For example,the Red Cross provided aid and re
26、lief after the May 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake inSichuan,China.Dunant himself gave up everything to save the world.His business failed because he was too busy with his work in theRed Cross.Then Dunant had to leave the Red Cross because of a personal conflict.Despite this,he continued to work as avolunt
27、eer,helping provide relief to people caught up in war.In the end,he lost all his money,fell ill,and had to be taken inby a charity.By this time,the Red Cross had become famous,but he was mostly forgotten.In the last years of his life,though,he was discovered by a newspaper reporter.From then on,he w
28、as celebrated around the world as the manresponsible fbr saving many thousands of lives.Though he is long gone,his spirit continues with us until this day.24.Where does Dunants idea of forming the Red Cross come from?A.The encouragement of other devoted volunteers.B.His travel through Europe to dist

32、ises(危机)like the Californias wildfires and Hurricane Laura that occurred last year could havebeen described as natural disasters”.Thanks to climate change,this is no longer the case.Around mid-August last year,thetemperature in Death Valley once reached the highest ever recorded on Earth.A hotter,dr
33、ier California is much more likelyto burst into flames(突然着火).The Gulf of Mexico too is heating up.Hurricanes draw their energy from the warmth of thesurface waters and so are becoming stronger and more likely to increase.Perhaps we should call these events in a new term,“man-made natural disasters”.
34、People now play such an important role on the planet.By cutting down forests and digging mines and building cities,weve changed half of the ice-free land on Earth.With our advanced tools,we move around more earth than all the worldsrivers and streams.As a result,all sorts of disasters extend across
35、the line between man and nature.Many earthquakes,forexample,are now caused by human activity.Meanwhile,as the climate continues to warm,wildfires will grow even largerand storms more damaging.Whats to be done?According to some scientists,the best way to deal with human intervention(干涉)in the natural
36、world is to intervene better.Old technologies got us into this situation;new ones will get us out.Supporters of this view notethe striking advances that are being made all the time,in fields ranging from computing to material science.To preventclimate change,engineers have built machines that take C
37、O2 out of the air.Today the numbers are limited,but perhaps oneday they91 1 be as common as telephones.As for me,I think that the choice we face is not whether to change the world;that decision unfortunately has been made.The decision going forward is how are we going to change it.Over the years Ive

41、e world any moreB.we should feel proud of humans,intelligenceC.we should reconsider the way we change the worldD.people should be aware of the potential threat from human activityDMost students do an IQ test early in their school career.Even if they never see their results,they feel that IQ is whatd
42、etermines how well they are going to do in life.When they see other students doing better than them,they usually believethat those students have a higher IQ and that there is nothing they can do to change facts.However,new research into EQsuggests that success is not simply the result of a high IQ.W
43、hile your IQ tells you how intelligent you are,your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence.ProfessorSalovey,who invented the term EQ,gives the following description.At work,it is IQ that gets you hired,but it is EQ(hatgets you promoted.Supported by his academic research,Professor Salovey su
44、ggests that when predicting someones futuresuccess,their character,as measured by EQ tests,might actually matter more than their IQ.Professor Salovey may be correct.For example,have you ever wondered why some of the smartest students in yourclass,who you think deserve good grades,sometimes end up fa
45、iling exams?Perhaps their failure is because of their low EQ.People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well.This association can exist,butit is as possible for someone with a low IQ to have a high EQ or someone with a high IQ to have a low EQ.It is genera
46、lly believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life.Theyare also less likely to be troubled by problems.On the other hand,there is little doubt that people with low EQs often haveproblems getting on with other people and dealing with difficult situat
47、ions;thus,they have a harder time surviving in life.People generally believe that a persons IQ is determined by birth.However,most social scientists agree that EQ has alot to do with education.Some are trying to study the possibility to improving a persons EQ,especially in terms of peopleskills”,suc
48、h as understanding and communication.Professor Mayer,recently announced the results of a study on senior high school students.When normal students wereintroduced to students with disabilities,they found that,afterwards,the normal students were more willing to help peoplewith difficulties.They also s
49、howed a better understanding of the disabled students feeling compared to students who had notbeen involved in the study.There was also an obvious change in the disabled students9 attitudes.They became more positiveabout life and more willing to try new things.The results of studies such as these sh
50、ow that EQ is as important,if not more important than IQ.To get ahead in theworld and lead a happy successful life means getting on with other people and being able to understand and react tosituations in the best way possible.This requires a high EQ-the higher the better.And the fact that it might
