20．When you hear "I have a dream…"，one of the most famous speeches in human history，you'll never have the idea how the audience on the scene were fueled by emotional intelligence.When Martin Luther King.Jr.presented his dream，he chose language that would stir the hearts of his audience.Delivering this electrifying （震撼性的） message required emotional intelligence- the ability to recognize，understand，and manage emotions.
Emotional intelligence has been highly recommended by leaders，policymakers，and educators as the solution to a wide range of social problems.Emotional intelligence is important，but the uncontrolled enthusiasm has obscured （掩盖）a dark side.New evidence shows that when people sharpen their emotional skills，they become better at controlling others.When you're good at controlling your own emotions，you can hide your true feelings.When you know what others are feeling，you can motivate them to act against their own best interests.
Social scientists have begun to document this dark side of emotional jye.aitelligence.In a research led by University of Toronto professor Jochen Menges，when a leader gave an inspiring speech filled with emotion，the audience was less likely to scrutinize （细察） the message and remembered the content.Ironically （讽刺的是），audience members were so moved by the speech that they claimed to recall more of it.
The authors call this the awestruck effect （敬畏效应），but it might just as easily be described as the dumbstruck effect （惊吓效应）.One observer reflected that Hitler's persuasive impact came from his ability to strategically express emotions- he would "tear open his heart"- and these emotions affected his followers to the point that they would "stop thinking critically and just emote （强烈地表现情感）."
Leaders who master emotions can rob us of our abilities to reason.If their values are out of step with our own，the results can be destructive.New evidence suggests that when people have self-serving motives，emotional intelligence becomes a weapon for controlling others.
Throwing light on this dark side of emotional intelligence is one mission of a research team led by University College London professor Martin Kilduff.According to these experts，emotional intelligence helps people disguise （伪装） one set of emotions while expressing another for personal gain.Professor Kilduff's team writes， "The strategic disguise of one's own emotions and the controlling of others' emotions for strategic ends are behaviors evident not only on Shakespeare's stage but also in the offices and corridors where power and influence are traded."
Of course，people aren't always using emotional intelligence for nefarious ends.More often than not，high EQ is helpful in most aspects of our life.Emotional intelligence- like any skill- can be used for good or evil.So whether it is a gift or a curse lies in your hand.

21．Kevin Randall，a biology teacher at Grandville High School，runs the environmental club at the high school，which has around 2，000 students.The club is known as the GHS Green Team，and it aims to raise awareness among students.It also works on projects to reduce the environmental footprint of the building itself.
One of the club's recent projects focused on reducing waste in the school cafeteria.Randall said their cafeteria supervisor told them that the school went through 54，000 plastic forks every year.The club applied for a financial help，built recycling centers for the cafeteria，and purchased metal silverware.
And now every student uses a durable metal for kora spoon instead of disposables （一次性用品） ， "and that's just one way we're trying to capture the low-hanging fruit，if you will，" Randall said.
The efforts of Randall and his students have earned Grandville High School the Michigan Green School certification from the state.In addition to their work reducing waste in the cafeteria，the GHS Green Team has also built a garden with flowers and vegetables on campus，and leads cleanups on site and out in the community.Over the years，Randall and his students have also been working on raising money to install solar panels （太阳能板） on the roof of the high school.
Randall said he was motivated to take the lead on environmental issues for his school because he wanted his students to have someone to turn to in the building who understands what's at stake （利害攸关） when it comes to climate change.
"And I also felt like I needed to do more in my life for my own two children at home，" Randall added， "They need to know that their dad is working as hard a she can to reduce the effects of climate change，and to spread the word，and to make sure that other students out there are leaning about this just the way they are at home."
（1）What is the purpose of the GHS Green Team club？ （No more than 10 words）
（2）How did the club help the school cafeteria reduce waste？ （No more than 15 words）
（3）How do you understand the underlined part the low-hanging fruit in Para 3？
（No more than 5 words）
（4）What's the fourth paragraph mainly about？ （No more than 10 words）
（5）Suppose you are in charge of a similar Green Club，what activity will you organize？And why？
（no more than 20 words）组卷：8引用：1难度：0.5
