Few appear more often than the 【C1】______that many old couples look alike. You have probably seen it before—two elderly people walking hand-in-hand down the street or sitting at a cafe, 【C2】______each other so strongly that they could be siblings.

The subjects consistently judged people who were married【C9】______being similar【C10】______appearance and personality. The researchers also found that couples who had been together longer appeared【C11】______similar.
This result【C12】______itself may not seem surprising, but the study also offered some answers on【C13】______couples may look alike. To start, consider that life experiences can end up 【C14】______reflected physically. Someone【C15】______is happy and smiles more will develop the facial muscles and wrinkles related to smiling.
