调查称女人31岁最美丽

 　　According to the Telegraph, women reach the peak of their beauty at the age of 31, a new study has claimed。

　　Women in their late 20s and early 30s are considered more attractive than fresh-faced eighteen and nineteen year olds, researchers found. The findings, from a survey of the opinions of over 2,000 men and women, found that beauty was as much rooted in personality as appearance。

　　Celebrities¹ currently at the prime age of 31 include TV presenter² Christine Bleakley, Strictly³ Come Dancing judge Alesha Dixon and Danielle Lineker。

　　Beauty was defined as being confident by 70 percent of respondents, having good looks by 67 per cent and being stylish⁴ by 47 percent。

　　据英国《每日电讯报》19日报道，最近的一项研究表明，女性在31岁时最漂亮。

　　研究人员发现，20岁后半期和30岁出头的女性比18-19岁面带稚气的女孩更具吸引力。这一结论是通过收集2000名男性和女性的调查问卷后得出的。同时，该结论认为美丽同样来自于个性，就像来自于人的外表一样。

　　据悉，目前英国娱乐界处于全盛期的美女电视主持人克里斯蒂尼-布里克莉、歌手爱丽莎-迪克森和模特达尼埃尔莱-因克尔都是31岁。

　　参与调查问卷的70%的人认为美来自于自信，67%的人认为美就是有好容貌，而47%的人则认为美就是追求新潮。
