本题需要考生在通读全文的基础上进行判断。由第三段第一、二句“Researchers have been discussing whether it’s possible to raise a person’s IQ．Geneticists say No，while social scientists say Yes．(研究人员一直在讨论是否有可能提高一个人的智商。遗传学家说不可能，社会学家却说可能。)”可知，智商能否被提高，并没有一个统一的定论，所以，选项A不正确。由第四段第四句“In so-cial research circles，EQ denotes one’s ability to survive，and it’s here that there may be an overlap between EQ，IQ，genetics and en-vironment．(在社会研究界，情商指的是一个人的生存的能力，在这方面，它可能和智商，遗传学和环境有所重叠。)”可知，智商和情商有所重叠。所以，选项B不正确。由第二段第六句“…were better adjusted，more popular，more adventurous…(…更能适应环境、更受欢迎、更具冒险精神…)”可知，情商高的人更具冒险精神，所以，选项C正确。通读第三段可知，同情是高情商的一个表现，所以，选项D不正确。所以，本题选择C。

A． No disciplines have seized on professionalism with as much enthusiasm as the humanities.
You can, Mr Menand points out, became a lawyer in three years and a medical doctor in four. But the regular time it takes to get a doctoral degree in the humanities is nine years.
Not surprisingly, up to half of all doctoral students in English drop out before getting their de-grees.
B． His concern is mainly with the humanities: Literature, languages, philosophy and so on.
These are disciplines that are going out of styl: 22 % of American college graduates now ma-jor in business compared with only 2% in history and 4% in English. However, many lead- ing American universities want their undergraduates to have a grounding in the basic canon of ideas that every educated person should posses. But most find it difficult to agree on what a "general education" should look like. At Harvard, Mr Menand notes, "the great books are read because they have been read"--they form a sort of social glue.
C．Equally unsurprisingly, only about half end up with professorships for which they entered graduate school. There are simply too few posts. This is partly because universities continue to produce ever more PhDs. But fewer students want to study humanities subjects: English departments awarded more bachelor´ s degrees in 1970 ～1971 than they did 20 years later.
Fewer students requires fewer teachers. So, at the end of a decade of theses-writing, many humanities students leave the profession do do something for which they have not been trained.
D． One reason why it is hard to design and teach such courses is that they can cut across the in- sistence by top American universities that liberal arts educations and professional education should be kept separate, taught in different schools. Many students experience both varieties.
Although more than half of Harvard undergraduates end up in law, medicine or business, fu-ture doctors and lawyers must study a non-specialist liberal-arts degree before embarking on a professional qualification.
E． Besides professionalizing the professions by this separation, top American universities have professionalised the professor. The growth in public money for academic research has speeded the process: federal research grants rose fourfold between 1960 and 1990, but faculty teaching hours fell by half as research took its toll. Professionalism has turned the acquisition of a doc- toral degree into a prerequisite for a successful academic career: as late as 1969 a third of A- merican professors did not possess one. But the key idea behind professionalisation, argues
Mr Menand, is that "the knowledge and skills needed for a particular specialization are trans- missible but not transferable. " So disciplines acquire a monopoly not just over the production of knowledge, but also over the production of the producers of knowledge.
F． The key to reforming higher education, concludes Mr Menand, is to alter the way in which"the producers of knowledge are produced. " Otherwise, academics will continue to think dangerously alike, increasingly detached from the societies which they study, investigate and criticize. "Academic inquiry, at least in some fields, may need to become less exclusionary and more holistic. " Yet quite how that happens, Mr Menand does not say.
G． The subtle and intelligent little book The Marketplace of Ideas: Reform and Resistance in the American University should be read by every student thinking of applying to take a doctoral degree. They may then decide to go elsewhere. For something curious has been happening in American Universities, and Louis Menand, a professor of English at Harvard University,captured it skillfully.
