外媒上那些关于女人的研究

>Ideal: 0.7 waist-to-hip ratio

识女人:腰臀比例是关键

A woman's attractiveness relates to the size of her waist compared with her hips, according to New Zealand anthropologist Barnaby Dixson. He has discovered that a waist-to-hip ratio of 0.7 - or a waist measurement exactly 70% of the hip circumference - makes for the perfect figure. Examples include some of the world's most beautiful women. Marilyn Monroe(See Photo), modern-day starlet Jessica Alba and Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio all possess the perfect figure.

新西兰人类学家巴纳比·迪克森研究发现，女人是否具有吸引力，与腰臀比例有关。腰臀比为0.7，或者说腰围是臀围70%的身材最为完美。世界上最美丽的女人，如玛丽莲·梦露(见图)、新星杰西卡·奥尔芭以及"维多利亚的秘密"内衣模特亚历山大·安布罗休等，均拥有这种完美的身材比例。

>Women better at multitasking

女人其实更懂一心多用

There is an age-old complaint that men are incapable of doing more than one thing at once. Now, psychologists have proven that men really are worse at multitasking than the fairer sex. They found that when women and men work on a number of simple tasks – such as searching for a key or doing easy math problems – at the same time, women significantly outperformed men. Researchers believe the results show that females are better able than men to reflect upon a problem, while continuing to juggle their other commitments.
