Dr Satoshi Kanazawa, of the London School of Economics, analysed data from a survey of 17,000 babies born in Britain in March 1958 and tracked them throughout their lives.    【小题3】    When they reached 45, they were asked about the gender of any children they had.
Those rated as attractive were equally likely to have a son or daughter as their first child – but the unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son.    【小题4】  
Dr Kanazawa believes that parents tend to produce children who benefit from their own features.  【小题5】  So it pays for attractive women to have daughters.

more children than plain ones.
