You can’t judge a book by its cover, but a new investigation suggests that you can tell a lot about a person by the look of their face. Here are three of the most revealing facial features:
你不能從一本書的封面判斷它的內(nèi)容,然而,一項新研究證明,一個人的面部特征能泄露許多個人特質。下面是三個最能泄露個人特質的面部特征。

1.Bone Structure:?
骨骼架構

Is your face short and wide or long and thin? A study found that people with high levels of testosterone often have wide faces and large cheekbones. This group is more likely to be assertive and sometimes even aggressive. Another study on capuchin monkeys found that the wider the face, the more likely the animal is to have a high rank in their group’s hierarchy.
你的臉是粗短型的還是細長型的?一項研究發(fā)現(xiàn),睪丸素較高的人群往往臉型較寬,而且顴骨較大。這類人群更傾向于具有獨斷專橫,乃至咄咄逼人的性格特質。另一項關于卷尾猴的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),猴群中面部越寬的猴子越可能在族群中居于高貴的社會等級。

2.Baby Fat:
面部體脂

If you’ve got plump cheeks or extra baby fat on your face, you might be prone to infections. Those with thinner faces suffer from infections less often, and when they do, the effects are less severe.
如果你雙頰過于豐盈,或者說在臉上有多余的脂肪,你更有可能受到病菌侵害。面部較瘦的人受感染的可能性相交更少,如果他們被病菌感染,病情也會相對較輕。

In fact, the fill of your face supposedly reveals more about your fitness level than your body mass index. And a thinner face can also indicate lower risk for depression and anxiety, since mental health is linked to overall physical fitness.
事實上,臉上肉多肉少比你的綜合身體指數(shù)更能表現(xiàn)你的健康情況。并且面部較瘦也意味著患抑郁癥和焦慮癥的危險較低,因為心理健康與整個肌體的健康都休戚相關。

3.Skin Tone:
膚色

Extremely subtle skin tone tints ?can reveal much about a person’s lifestyle. For example, someone whose skin is a bit yellow or gold is likely to be extremely healthy. The tint, which comes from pigments known as carotenoids, is a result of eating orange and red fruits and vegetables that bolster the immune system..
非常細微的膚色色差非常能說明一個人的生活方式好壞。比如說,帶一點黃色或金黃色的膚色就顯得非常健康。這種黃色來自于一種稱為類胡羅卜素的天然色素,產(chǎn)生于我們食用的橙子,紅色水果和蔬菜,能幫助增強免疫力。

A pink, flushed face, on the other hand, could signal that the person has an active lifestyle and good circulation. In women, this color may also be a sign of fertility.
而粉色、乃至緋紅的膚色則象征著這個人的生活方式非常健康積極,有良好的血液循環(huán)。在女性身上,這種色澤可以被視為生育力強盛的象征。
