Unit 1
研究表明:在两性及众多文化中,长相好的人,特别是从青春期开始,往往被评 价为具
有出色的性格特质的人。
事情为何如此?有些人觉得,由于遇见外表迷人者和 品德优良者都令人愉快,我们会不
假思索地把这二者混为一谈。
但是,
这一说法似乎并不客观。
西安大略大学
(University?of?Western?Ontario)
的桑
波·保诺宁
(Sampo?Paunonen)
博士的研究发现,被形容为较诚实的人也会被认为更讨人喜欢,
而越讨人喜欢的人,外貌也就更具吸引力。
Research?has?shown?that?in?both?sexes?and?acro ss numerous cultures, especially
from?adolescence, good- looking?people?are?often evaluated?to?be?ones with exceptional
personality traits.
Why should this be so? Some people have perceived that since it is pleasurable to meet
someone with attractive physical appearance and someone?with good?moral character, we
automatically
mix them up.?
But this statement does not seem to be objective. The studies by Dr. Sampo Paunonen of
the University of Western Ontario reveal that people who were described as being more
honest were rated as more likable, and the more likable, the more physically attractive.
Unit 2
1960
年简·古多尔开始了她在坦桑尼亚的贡贝溪国家公园对黑猩猩 社群的研究。由于没
有专业的训练来指导其研究,古多尔观察到了可能会被严格的科学教条
(d octrine)
所忽视的
东西。
她没有给进入观察的黑猩猩编号,而是给 他们取名,如菲菲和灰胡子大卫,并发现他们
具有独特的个性。古多尔在贡贝溪的研究在科学界最为人称 道的是,她的发现打破了当时人
们长期存在的两个信念:只有人类才会制造和使用工具,以及黑猩猩是素 食者。
Jane Goodall began studying the chimpanzee community in Gombe Stream National Park,
Tanzania, in 1960. Without professional training to direct her research, Goodall observed
things that strict scientific doctrines may have overlooked.
Instead of numbering the chimpanzees she observed, she gave them names such as Fifi
and David Greybeard, and found they had unique and individual personalities. Goodall’s
research at Gombe Stream is best known to the scientific community for challenging two
long- standing beliefs of the day: that only humans could make and use tools, and that
chimpanzees were vegetarians.
