The idea that men are interested in a woman’s beauty while women are interested in the size of a man’s wallet is overly simplistic, according to new study findings.
The troth is, though attractiveness and income may indeed be factors of interest, qualities such as kindness and creativity are aim very important, researchers report.
Norman R Li, a PhD candidate at Arizona State University, and his colleagues studied two groups of undergraduate men and women who were given a budget of "mate" dollars and told to spend the appropriate amount on the qualities most important to them.
When under budget constraint, women placed the most importance--meaning they spent the highest proportion of their mate dollars--on intelligence or kindness and yearly income/.social level, whereas men placed the most importance on physical attractiveness and intelligence, the investigators report.
"Everyone really wants a well-rounded mate, but physical attractiveness matters first and social status matters first to men and women, respectively," Li explained.
Yet, when given additional income to spend on luxuries, men and women did not allocate more dollars towards physical attractiveness and social status, respectively, but rather added qualities such as creativity and special non-work talents.
"At a low budget you really can’t have it all," Li mid, so "you tend to spend money on necessities; when you start getting more money, you spend toward luxuries."
Lastly, the investigators conducted a third study in which they asked 58 undergraduates to participate in a computer activity to choose the qualities most essential to them in a mate.
Similar to the previous two study findings, women chose social level first, with kindness as a close second. For men, physical attractiveness and kindness topped the list.
Overall, for both men and women, a person’s physical attractiveness, social level and kindness were key to their being accepted or rejected as a potential mate. Men also considered a women’s liveliness as a crucial factor, the reporter indicates.
Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
选项
A、Difference between men and women in mate selection
B、Kindness and intelligence are also important in mate selection
C、Ways in mate selection
D、Budget-spending in mate selection
答案
B
解析
主旨题。本文主要告诉我们,除了一个人的外表和金钱外,在选择配偶时,善良和智慧也是重要因素。这是一个课题组调查的结果,与“男人喜欢女人的美貌女人喜欢男人的钱包”这样的大众说法不一样,本文就是要公布此调查结果。因此“Kindness and intelligence are also important in mate selection”作为本文的标题较合适。
