　　They say that first impressions count, but if you’re aman and you want to make a lasting impression ona woman, apparently all you need is a deep, low-pitched voice to rival Barry White。

　　大家都說第一印象很重要，但如果你是一位男性，想要給女性留下深刻持續(xù)的印象，只要有一把低沉的迷人嗓音就可以啦!美國黑人歌手巴里·懷特的聲音就非常性感低沉。

　　根據(jù)英國阿伯丁大學的一項研究，和男性相比，女性對低沉的嗓音更加敏感;而比起那些高亢的嗓音來說，女性也更容易因為男人低沉的嗓音而自此記住他們。

　　The study, led by researcher David Smith, observed 45 women who were shown images objectsand were read out the name of the object by someone with a low and high-pitched voice。

　　該研究由研究者大衛(wèi)·史密斯主導，共有45位女性參與到實驗中。研究人員為她們展示物品圖像，并讓人分別用低沉和高亢的嗓音讀出物品的名稱。

　　When asked to recall the objects and which voice they preferred, the deep drawl came uptrumps, in both memory and attractiveness。

　　當被要求回憶物品和被問到哪個嗓音更喜歡時，女士們的回答顯示，不管是在幫助記憶還是在吸引力方面，慢吞吞的低沉嗓音都更勝一籌。

　　According to the findings, the results show that a woman’s memory is enhanced by a low,manly voice and because women rely heavily on memories, it helps them scan the voice tonesfor genetic superiority when looking for a potential partner。

　　根據(jù)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，結果顯示低沉的男性嗓音會幫助提升女性的記憶力。而因為女性非常依賴記憶作出判斷，這也會幫助她們仔細考慮這些聲音語調，會在她們選擇潛在伴侶時顯示出低沉嗓音的優(yōu)越性。

　　David Smith said: "Our findings demonstrate that women's memory is enhanced by lowerpitch male voices, compared with the less attractive raised pitch male voices。

　　大衛(wèi)·史密斯表示：“我們的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)證明，那些女性的記憶力會因為低沉的男性嗓音而有所提升，相比之下高音男聲則比較缺乏吸引力。”

　　"Our experiments indicate for the first time that signals from the opposite sex that areimportant for mate choice also affect accuracy in women's memory."

　　“我們的實驗第一次顯示，異性釋放的信號不僅在配偶選擇方面產(chǎn)生重要影響，還有影響女性記憶力的準確性。”

　　Is a deep, masculine voice the key to a woman’s heart? “We think this is evidence thatevolution has shaped women's ability to remember information associated with desirablemen,” says Dr. Kevin Allen, a supervisor from the study。

　　低沉的男性嗓音是打開女性芳心的鑰匙?這項研究的監(jiān)督導師凱文·艾倫博士表示：“我們相信這些都是有力的證據(jù)，證明進化使女性發(fā)展具備了記住理想男性相關信息的能力。”
