Their beautiful facial features have made them the envy of men and women the world over. But the likes of George Clooney and Kate Moss aren‘t that perfect after all. Beauty， it appears， really is only skin-deep. According to new research those with symmetrical facial features – regarded by many as the more attractive – are significantly more selfish than the rest of us mere mortals.也許憑借著出眾的外貌，擁有著魔鬼身材、天使臉龐的美女以及俊俏臉龐的帥哥都是許多普通人所希望達到的夢想，然而沒有人能創(chuàng)造出100%的完美臉龐，這種眾人羨慕的臉龐根本無從證實，就連喬治�？唆斈岷蛣P特。摩斯都不是所有人都覺得Ok的，古語道，人，生來只是一副臭皮囊�？墒牵�就是臭皮囊都有影響心靈的功效呢。據悉，最新研究顯示，越是面容姣好的人，無論男人還是女人，待人接物相比“素人”會更自私。

    Researchers found they were less likely to cooperate in pursuit of the greater good and more likely to feather their own nests. The team examined the facial features of 292 people at the age of 83 who took part in the Lothian Birth Cohort 1921， a study that has followed the participants throughout their life.研究者發(fā)現(xiàn)，那些俊男美女的處世哲學就是為自己搭建一個完美的宮殿，而無心估計他人的感受。據悉，這是研究人員從1921年開始，針對一共292名志愿者（如今已經高達81歲）進行實驗而得出的結論，這組實驗占據了他們幾乎整個生命的周期。

    They analysed 15 facial ‘landmarks’， including the positions of the eyes， nose， mouth and ears， and were able to compare the facial symmetry of participants. Those with asymmetrical faces tended to be less healthy and more likely to have experienced deprived childhoods. Factors such as a lack of nutrition， illness， exposure to cigarette smoke and pollution left their mark， the researchers concluded.對于樣貌是否美觀，這人是美還是難看，評價的標準不一，眾口難調。但是，研究者還是從實驗出得出一些“經驗性”的結論供大家分析，他們總結出人體部位供15處地方可以作為評價美丑的標準，比如：眼睛的位置、鼻子、嘴巴還有等多等等。那些臉部五官不大勻稱的人被研究者稱為長相不佳的人，他們的健康狀況不是很好，更有可能童年不幸福。據分析，長相不好還有可能是后天造成的，比如說營養(yǎng)缺乏、長期吸二手煙或者居住在重度污染的環(huán)境中都有可能影響人們的后天長相。

    Even those who went from rags to riches could not escape the tell-tale signs. Deep lines and weather-beaten skin were instant giveaways about their hard lives， they said. ‘As people with symmetrical faces tend to be healthier and more attractive， they are also more self-sufficient and have less of an incentive to cooperate and seek help from others，’ the study found.有意思的是，即使是那些“一夜暴富”的“暴發(fā)戶”也難逃長得不討喜的厄運，皺紋多、皮膚不好都是窮人才具有的特點。據稱，那些五官勻稱，長相討喜的人，身體的健康狀況程度很好，自信程度常常爆棚，因此，很不愿意俯下身段去幫助別人。
