Section A-|||-Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.-|||-Intelligence makes for better leaders-thom maentes to executives to presidents-according to-|||-multiple studies.It certainly makes sense that handling a market shift or legislative logjam(僵局) 26 -|||-cognitive oomph(活力).But new research on leadership suggests that,at a certain 27 having a higher-|||-IQ stops helping and starts hurting.-|||-Although 28 research has shown that groups with smarter leaders perform better by objective-|||-measures, some studies have hinted that followers might 29 view leaders with supreme intellect as less-|||-effective. Decades ago Dean Simonton,a psychologist at the University of California,Davis,proposed that-|||-brilliant leaders`words may simply go over people`s heads,their solutions could be more 30 to implement-|||-and followers might find it harder to relate to them.-|||-The researchers looked at 379 male and female business leaders in 30 countries, across fields that-|||-included banking,retail and technology.

题目解答
答案

解析
步骤 1:理解背景信息
根据文章,多项研究表明,智力使领导者更好,从大学生到执行官到总统。处理市场变化或立法僵局需要认知活力。但新的领导力研究发现,在某个点上,更高的智商开始变得有害。
步骤 2:分析问题
文章提到,虽然以前的研究表明,智商更高的领导者在客观指标上表现更好,但一些研究表明,下属可能主观地认为智商极高的领导者效率较低。这可能是因为高智商领导者的语言可能过于复杂,难以理解,他们的解决方案可能更难实施,下属可能觉得难以与他们沟通。
步骤 3:分析研究结果
研究者对来自30个国家的379名男性和女性商业领导者进行了研究,这些领导者在银行、零售和技术等领域工作。研究者发现,智商与领导效率、策略和视野等其他特征呈正相关,但智商达到120左右时,领导效率的评价达到顶峰。超过这个点,评价开始下降。
步骤 4:提出建议
研究者建议,高智商领导者应该用他们的智慧来创造有创意的比喻,说服和激励他人,就像前美国总统奥巴马那样。高智商的人唯一能恰当地表现自己的聪明才智并仍然与人们联系的方式就是用有魅力的方式说话。
