今天的句子：
People, though, are liars. Experiments that don’t rely on self-reporting regularly show that physical attractiveness is exquisitely, at times incomparably, important to both men and women. Status (however you want to measure it: income, formal education, et cetera) is often not far behind. In real-life dating studies, which get closer to genuine intentions, physical attractiveness and earning potential strongly predict romantic attraction.
思考题：
People in self-reporting experiments undervalue the importance of appearance and money.
第一句：
People, though, are liars.
Though 放在句首，句中：虽然； 放在…,though，… 或者…, though.：但是！
参考译文：
但人们爱说谎。（体会一下翻译成“人们是骗子”是不是有点不太对。）
第二句：
Experiments that don’t rely on self-reporting regularly show that physical attractiveness is exquisitely, at times incomparably, important to both men and women.
词汇突破：
1.physical attractiveness 躯体的吸引力，即体征美
2.exquisitely 精细地；微妙地；过分讲究地
3.at times 有时
4.incomparably 无可比拟地
主干识别：Experiments… regularly show that physical attractiveness is exquisitely important to both men and women.实验通常显示体征美对于男性和女性都相当重要。
切分成分：
1.that don’t rely on self-reporting（定语从句）
2.at times incomparably（插入语）与exquisitely并列，表示有多重要：有时也无比地重要
参考译文：不依赖于自我陈述的实验通常显示，体征美对于男性和女性都相当重要，有时是无比的重要。
第三句：
Status (however you want to measure it: income, formal education, et cetera) is often not far behind.
词汇突破：
1.measure 衡量
2.formal education　正规教育
3.etc./et cetera　等等
4.far behind 落后太远
5.however 无论…
参考译文：地位（无论你想怎么衡量它：收入、正规教育等）往往排名也不会太靠后。
第四句：
In real-life dating studies, which get closer to genuine intentions, physical attractiveness and earning potential strongly predict romantic attraction.
词汇突破：
real-life 真实的
dating 约会
genuine 真正的
intention 意图
主干识别：physical attractiveness and earning potential strongly predict romantic attraction　体征美和收入潜力很强地预测了浪漫吸引力。
切分成分：In real-life dating studies（地点状语）在实际约会研究中
which get closer to genuine intentions（定语从句）什么样的研究
参考译文：
在更接近真实意图的实际约会研究中，体征美和收入潜力强烈地预示了浪漫吸引力（被别人喜欢上的可能性）。
思考题：
People in self-reporting experiments undervalue the importance of appearance and money.
根据上面的译文可以知道，不依赖于自我陈述的实验证明了外表和金钱的重要性，反言之，就是依赖于自我陈述的实验低估了它们的重要性。所以这道题的答案是“True”又是一次正话反说！
