35、her words, someone can be beautiful on the outside, but be mean or unpleasant on the inside. Another famous saying is “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. That is to say, each persons idea of beauty is different. But is it true that each person perceives beauty differently? Or, does our social an

36、d cultural background influence our ideas about beauty? We turn to reporter Gwen Silva for the answer to this question.,To be continued ,Listening 1,Reporter: Its said that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, yet the opposite seems to be true. People within a culture usually have similar ideas a

37、bout beauty. Numerous studies on beauty have had surprising results. These studies have shown that most people believe that average faces are the most beautiful faces. It was Judith Langlois, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, who showed that most people think average looking face

38、s are beautiful. In addition, the research shows that a beautiful face is a symmetrical face. To put it another way, if both sides of the face are exactly the same, we consider a person beautiful. Extreme variations in symmetry are usually not considered beautiful, Langlois says, and may even be dis

39、turbing to observers.,To be continued ,Listening 1,The latest research on facial beauty was completed by psychologists Pamela M. Pallett, Stephen Link, and Kang Lee. These researchers were interested in finding out if there was a relationship between the parts of the face that people considered to b

40、e most beautiful. So, in four separate experiments the researchers asked university students to compare images of 12 faces. Each face was actually the same personbut there were different distances between the eyes and the mouth. After the experiments, the researchers discovered a “golden ratio”the i

41、deal distance between the eyes, the mouth, and the edge of the face. Faces were judged most beautiful when the distance between the eyes and the mouth was 36 percent of the length of the face. Not surprisingly, these measurements are exactly those of an “average” face.,To be continued ,Listening 1,S

42、cientists have also studied the role of beauty in the attraction between the sexes. In studies by psychologists Victor Johnston and David Perrett, men consistently preferred women with large eyes, full lips, and a small nose and chin. Think of classic beauties such as Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hep

43、burn or, nowadays, Angelina Jolie or Halle Berry. This preference for big eyes and full lips is not random. According to anthropologist Don Symons, the brain tells men that full lips and big eyes equal health and the ability to produce healthy babies. Its an instinct that has evolved over a hundred

44、thousand years, Symons believes. However, not everyone agrees. Anthropologists do not agree that there is one standard idea of beauty. Around the world, different cultures have different ideas about what constitutes beauty. For,To be continued ,Listening 1,example, the Mayan people of Central Americ

45、a considered crossed eyes beautiful. A number of African tribes think scars make both men and women more beautiful. Among the Maori people of Australia, a woman is considered most beautiful when her lips are tattooed blue. It does appear, therefore, that the old saying is wrong: Beauty does not lie

46、in the eye of the beholder. Well, at least not entirely. People from the same culture usually envision beauty in the same way, but there are many variationsand many different types of beautyaround the world.
