美貌與智慧并存只是一個(gè)傳說(shuō)嗎？
Can someone be beautiful and brainy at the same time? Or is it that models or people who are physically attractive are not usually that smart? Does being more beautiful make you brainier, or does brainy make you any less beautiful?
有沒(méi)有人可以集美貌與智慧于一身呢? 外表美麗的模特抑或其他人通常不聰明嗎?是美麗容貌使你更聰明，還是智慧使你缺少美麗的容顏?
According a recent research conducted in US and UK, physically attractive men and women are much smarter than regular people. It goes on to say that attractive women have an IQ that is 11.4 points higher than average-looking women. I don’t buy that argument, because I feel their intelligence is because of them as a people, not because of the pretty faces.
根據(jù)最近的一份研究表明， 在美國(guó)和英國(guó)，外表美麗的男性和女性們比一般人更聰明一點(diǎn)。而且，漂亮女性的智商比一般女性高11.4分。我并不認(rèn)同這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)，我認(rèn)為他們的智慧只與人相關(guān)，而與漂亮面孔沒(méi)有關(guān)系。
We have all seen fantastic-looking women say the dumbest things. We have all heard Miss Universe contestants failing to answer questions that even five-year olds can. However, there are myriad of examples that prove that as a concept, beauty and brains can go hand in hand.
我們都看過(guò)漂亮女人說(shuō)一些愚蠢的事情。經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到一些環(huán)球小姐的參賽者回答不出連五歲小孩都會(huì)得問(wèn)題。不過(guò)，也有很多例子表明，美麗與智慧可以并存。
1. Natalie Portman
1. 娜塔麗·波特曼
She is a Harvard graduate. That’s right , Harvard! Has contributed to scientific journals and even given a lecture on terrorism at Columbia. Wow! And she looks spectacular, doesn’t she, and a phenomenal actress to top it.
她是哈佛畢業(yè)生，沒(méi)錯(cuò)，哈佛!曾經(jīng)為科學(xué)期刊工作甚至還在哥倫比亞大學(xué)發(fā)表過(guò)關(guān)于恐怖主義的演講。哇! 她看起來(lái)很不一般，不是么?當(dāng)然她最突出的身份還是女演員。
2. Famke Janssen
2. 范姆克·詹森
The X-men hottie graduate from Columbia in English literature and also fluent in Dutch, German, English and French. Now that’s a combination that is hard to beat.
這位主演《X戰(zhàn)警》的辣妹畢業(yè)于哥倫比亞大學(xué)英語(yǔ)文化專業(yè)，并且她的荷蘭語(yǔ)，德語(yǔ)，英語(yǔ)和法語(yǔ)也同樣很流利。真是無(wú)懈可擊啊。
3. Kate Beckinsale
3. 凱特·貝金賽爾
This Vampire-butt-kicking beauty is not just a pretty face. She graduated from Oxford. When she was younger, she also won the W. H. Smith Young Writers award for her creative writing. She speaks French and Russian. Man, is she talented.
這位吸血鬼的主演可不是個(gè)臉蛋兒漂亮的花瓶。她畢業(yè)于牛津大學(xué)。年輕時(shí)，她還因個(gè)人創(chuàng)作榮獲 W. H. 史密斯青年作家獎(jiǎng)。凱特會(huì)講法語(yǔ)和俄語(yǔ)�；镉�(jì)，她很有才吧?
4. Maggie Gyllenhal
4. 瑪吉·吉倫哈爾
She is a graduate in literature and Eastern religions from Columbia. And who can forget the fantastic movies she has done, from the critically acclaimed ‘Secretary' to 'Sherrybaby’ to the cute baker in ‘Stranger than Fiction’. Not just that, she is also highly active in human rights, civil liberty, and anti-poverty crusades. That’s a thinking man’s star, eh!
她畢業(yè)于哥倫比亞大學(xué)文學(xué)與東方宗教專業(yè)。她演過(guò)的影片角色，從《秘書(shū)》、《雪莉?qū)氊悺返健豆P下求生》中的.可愛(ài)糕點(diǎn)師，都深入人心。不僅如此，瑪吉積極投身人權(quán)、民權(quán)自由以及反貧困運(yùn)動(dòng)中，堪稱是一位有思想的明星!
5. Emma Watson
5. 艾瑪·沃森
The innocent-looking wizard from Harry Potter is currently attending Brown University, studying European women's history and drama. She will go on to Oxford for a year post Brown. The beautiful Emma who stole a million hearts with her portrayal of Hermoine Granger, is also a very smart cook。
這位《哈利波特》里的天真無(wú)邪的小巫師目前正就讀于布朗大學(xué)，學(xué)習(xí)歐洲女性歷史與戲劇。此后她將去牛津大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)一年。美麗的艾瑪因?yàn)槌錾缪莺彰?格蘭杰而贏得無(wú)數(shù)人的欽慕，而且她還是個(gè)很聰明廚子。
6. Jennifer Connelly
6. 詹妮弗·康奈利
The actress who has mesmerized us all through all these years went to not one, but two Ivy League schools, Yale and then later to Stanford。
這位深入人心的迷人演員畢業(yè)于兩所常青藤院校——先是耶魯大學(xué)后來(lái)去了斯坦福大學(xué)。
7. Danica McKellar
7. 丹妮卡 麥凱拉
The cute, fringe-haired beauty from ‘The Wonder Years’, has co-authored a math theorem. Now who would have thought that? Kevin Arnold was one lucky boy to have Winnie Cooper as his girlfriend. He left many others fuming with envy。
這位《純真年代》里的可愛(ài)劉海兒美女曾與人合著一個(gè)數(shù)學(xué)定理，可現(xiàn)在誰(shuí)還記得這個(gè)?人們只記得那部電影中凱文·阿諾德幸運(yùn)的贏得了溫妮·庫(kù)珀的芳心，讓別人只能在一旁嫉妒。
There are many other such examples of women who have proved that they have the killer mix of beauty and brains. So it is a clear possibility. However, I am of the opinion that just like having a degree won't make one any brainer, having a pretty face doesn't automatically mean being smart either. Every person has their own take on what they consider beautiful and/or intelligent. Some might call Einstein brainer than newton, while some might say that Emma Watson is prettier than Natalie Portman. However, while brain power can be measured through proven tests beauty can't. so when magazines rate hot women, it is simply based on popular opinion
其實(shí)還有很多女性可以證明自己是美貌與智慧的完全組合。所以這種可能性很顯然，不過(guò)，我還是那個(gè)智慧與美麗互不影響觀點(diǎn)的支持者之一。每個(gè)人都有他 評(píng)定美麗與智慧的標(biāo)尺。一些人會(huì)認(rèn)為愛(ài)迪生比牛頓聰明，還有人認(rèn)為艾瑪比娜塔莉·波特曼更漂亮。智慧可以用測(cè)驗(yàn)來(lái)檢測(cè)，然而美麗卻不能，所以當(dāng)雜志評(píng)選熱 辣美女時(shí)，基本上是根據(jù)她的受歡迎程度來(lái)決定的。
Both beauty and brains depend on the genes that are passed on to us. The other things that contribute towards building brains and a healthy image of ourselves include, the kind of books we read, social circle, people we respect and follow, ideas and thoughts that have been fed to us and the ones we develop by ourselves, music we listen to, art we appreciate, opportunities we get, encouragement we receive from our loved ones, and most of all, personal motivation. All in all, beauty and brains can go hand in hand, or could have nothing to do with each other. It all depends from person to person。
美貌和智慧都受遺傳基因的影響。除此之外，對(duì)于塑造一個(gè)智慧和健康的形象有利的因素還包括：閱讀的書(shū)籍的種類、社交圈子、欽佩的人和榜樣、被灌輸?shù)?及個(gè)人形成的思想觀念、所聽(tīng)的音樂(lè)、喜歡的藝術(shù)、遇到的契機(jī)、來(lái)自愛(ài)人的鼓勵(lì)，而且，最重要的是，自我的動(dòng)力�？偠灾�，美貌與智慧可以兼得，而且彼此之 間可能互不影響。一切都得看個(gè)人具體情況。
