Olympics.Paul tells his story in his book，Long Shot：Never Too Small to Dream Big.So what are the New Orleans Hornets stars secrets to success?Paul says we need to set goals(目标)“Every year since Ive been in the NBA Ive set goals，”he said.“As a rookie(新秀)，it was to be Rookie of the Year，make the rookie AllStar game.Then be an All Star，be firstteam NBA.Ive done all that stuff.”As he achieved each goal，he improved statistically(统计数据上地)last season he averaged 22.8 points and 11 assists(助攻)“Going into this season，my only goal is to win a championship，”he said.The fact that Paul is a team player also explains his success.No one in the NBA improves his teammates，or is more interested in improving them，than Paul.He gets his teammates involved in the offense(进攻)，gets them shots，and lets them take the credit for winning.“This is a guy who could lead the team to score if he wanted to.That shows the contrast(对比)between him and a guy like Kobe Bryant.As Kobes teammate，you are a

camera can catch a liar(说谎的人)at least 75% of the time，according to a small scientific study out today.“If more tests prove its ability，the liedetector camera might one day be used by airports to catch terrorists(恐怖分子)before they get on an airplane”，says researcher James Levine of the Mayo Clinic.But some people doubt whether the camera would ever be reliable enough to be used widely，or whether it could tell someone who plans to break the law.Levines group reported their early findings in the journal Nature.Levine and his colleagues asked 20 US.Army soldiers to help test the camera，which records the heat patterns when blood rushes to the human face.The researchers told eight of the soldiers in the study to kill a model man，rob it of 20 dollars，then lie about the “crime”The remaining 12 people in the study knew nothing about the “crime”The researchers took all 20 people into a room.They asked them whether they had stolen 20 dollars and then recorded their answers with a standard polygraph test(标准测谎仪)and the new camera.The camera caught six out of eight liars as they were lyingthe same liedetecting ability as the polygraph test.The camera also correctly identified 11 of the 12 people who were telling the trutha slightly better rate than the polygraph.“The study is so small that it cant be used as proof of the cameras ability to catch a thief or a liar”，Levine says.Still，he is hopeful that the camera is recording a flushing of the face that may occur when someone lies.The flushing may not be caught by human eyes，but the camera shows a bright redorangeyellow zone that represents blood rushing to the eyes.“When someone lies，you get a warming around the eyes，”he says.Levine speculates that people who lie are afraid of getting caught.That fear leads to an immediate response to run away.Blood goes to the eyes so that the liar can more easily find a way to escape.Levine says it may take years before the camera would be ready for a test at a largeUS.airport.Alan Zelicoff，a senior scientist at the Center for National Security and Arms Control at the Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque，says that even if the camera works as well as it did in this study，it would mistakenly consider lots of people as liars.At a busy US.airport，those mistakes would mean a thousand passengers a day who would get pulled asidea move that would probably mean lots of missed flights，he says.1What does the new liardetector record when it works？(no more than 10 words)_2What instrument did Levines group use to compare with the new liardetecting camera totest it？(no more than 4 words)_3In the test by Levines group，how many soldiers were correctly identified？(Answeringin numbers，or no more than one word)_4Does Levine think the new camera can be used at large airports now？(no more than 4words)_.阅读理解The first time that I had heard the term“EQ”was in the fall of 1995 when the book Emotional Intelligence，by Daniel Goleman，was widely covered by the American press.The widespread research presented in the book supported my own observations and doubts about life and emotions，and told me that I was on the right track to go after happiness.The research continues to confirm what I had concluded on my own: These feelings are extremely important to individual health，happiness，and social harmony.This might seem a bit obvious，but it was not always obvious to me.I grew up in a family where we didnt talk about feelings.We talked about ideas，concepts and principles.As a result，I could tell you what I thought about everything，but I couldnt tell you how I felt about anything.After several failed relationships，I took time off to reflect on my life and realized I had made many decisions which resulted in unhappiness for myself and others.After studying the literature on emotions and feelings，I concluded that most of my poor decisions could be directly due to what is now called low emotional intelligence，or low EQ，for short.Previously，I struggled to find happiness through the traditional routesmaterial success.Now，however，I realize that：Theres not much point having either wealth or relationships if you arent happy.It is hard to be happy with others if you arent happy yourself.It is hard to be happy alone if you dont feel good about yourself，i.e.have high selfesteem and selfconfidence.It is hard to have good feelings about yourself if you dont have good emotional management skills.Emotional management skills，the main subject of EQ，are，therefore，one of the most basic elements of happiness.1The authors views and ideas
