Can someone be beautiful and brainy at the same time?
有没有人可以集美貌与智慧于一身呢？
Or is it that models or people who are physically attractive are not usually that smart? Does being more beautiful make you brainier, or does being brainy make you any less beautiful? According a recent research conducted in the US and UK, physically attractive men and women are much smarter than regular people. It goes on to say that attractive women have an IQ that is 11.4 points higher than average-looking women.
要么，模特或外表靓丽的人一般都不怎么聪明？到底是美貌让人变聪明，还是聪明使人显得更其貌不扬？美国和英国近期的一项研究显示，外表出众的男性和女性要比普通人更聪明。而且，漂亮女性的智商比一般女性高到11.4分点。
I don't buy that argument, because I feel their intelligence is because of them as people, not because of their pretty faces. We have all seen fantastic-looking women say the dumbest things. We have all heard Miss Universe contestants failing to answer questions that even five-year olds can. However, there are myriad of examples that prove that as a concept, beauty and brains can go hand in hand.
对此我无法苟同，因为我认为智慧是由“个体”决定的，而非得益于漂亮脸蛋儿。 大家都见过言谈粗俗的漂亮女人，也都听说过世界小姐候选人连5岁小孩都知道的问题也答不上来。不过，也有很多例子表明，美貌与智慧可以兼得。

The X-Men hottie graduated from Columbia in English literature and is also fluent in Dutch, German, English and French. Now that's a combination that is hard to beat.

This Vampire-butt-kicking beauty is not just a pretty face. She graduated from Oxford. When she was younger, she also won the W.H. Smith Young Writers award for her creative writing. She speaks French and Russian. Man, is she talented.
这位主演吸血鬼的美女可绝不是花瓶儿。凯特毕业于牛津大学。年轻时，她还因个人创作荣获W.H.史密斯青年作家奖。凯特会讲法语和俄语。各位，她很有才吧？
