Among the raft of books, articles, jokes, romantic comedies, self-help guides and other writings discussing marriage, some familiar ideas often crop up. 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. Do these couples actually look alike, and if【C3】______, what has caused them to develop this way?
A study published in the March 2006 issue of Personality and Individual Differences may have the【C4】______. Twenty-two people, divided equally【C5】______male and female, 【C6】______in the study. They were asked to judge the looks, personalities and ages of 160 married couples. The participants viewed photographs of men and women separately and were【C7】______told who was married to【C8】______. 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. The years of experience of an elderly couple’s marriage, happy【C16】______not, would then be reflected in their【C17】______.
Genetic influences are【C18】______factor. A past study showed that genetically similar people have better marriages. Such families have【C19】______incidents of child abuse and a lower rate of miscarriages. People also appear to be more selfless【C20】______involved with genetically similar partners.
