受教育程度越高的人越会说谎，你怎么看？（双语）

According to arecent study by Middlesex University, UK noted that the higher thelevel of education of people about to calculate the risk liesuncovered, so it will lie.

据英国密德萨斯大学最近一项研究指出，受教育程度越高的人约能够计算出谎言被识破的风险，因此也就越会说谎。

The most educatedpeople are the biggest liars, a study says.
据一项最新研究表明，受教育程度最高的人最会说谎。

It found that the honesty scores ofthose who did not complete secondary school was nearly twice thatof those with postgraduate degrees.
该研究发现，相比于研究生来说，那些没完成中学学业的人的诚实分数是他们的近两倍。

One theory is that more educatedpeople may be better able to calculate the risks of being caughtout lying.
一种理论认为，受教育程度越高的人就能更好地计算被人识破说谎的风险。

Middlesex University researchersanalysed data on 6,000 people from deception tests used bypsychologists.
密德萨斯大学的研究人员对6000人的数据进行了分析，数据来源于心理学家进行的欺骗测试。

Overall, men told more fibs thanwomen. But while age had no effect, education had a significantimpact.整体上来看，男人比女人说的谎更多。虽然年龄没有影响，但是说谎却和受教育程度却显著相关。

Postgraduates had the lowest honestyrating, followed by graduates. Next were people who had vocationaltraining, then those who completed secondaryeducation.
研究生的诚信评级最低，其次的学士毕业生。其次是职业学校毕业生和中学毕业生。

The highest honesty rating wasscored by those who did not finish school.
诚信评级最高的是那些从没完成过学业的人。

Notably, education had no effect ontelling altruistic ‘white lies’ that benefit another person at acost for the liar.
值得注意的是，受教育程度的高低并不会影响人们损己利人讲“善意的谎言”。

Dr Valerio Capraro, who led thestudy, said: ‘In order to lie, people must be aware of consequences andthat requires some computational abilities, which may be morelikely to be found in educatedpeople.’
瓦莱里奥.卡普拉罗博士领导的该项研究，据他表示：“为了撒谎，人们必须注意到这样做的后果，而那需要一定的计算能力，而受教育程度越高的人就越有可能具有这种能力。”
