长难句解析

The team said being suspicious of men with masculine features — such as a strong browridge, strong jaw and thinner lips — might have offered an evolutionary advantage, allowing heterosexual women to spot a flaky partner and men to recognise a potential rival who might seduce their partner or leave them raising someone else’s child.

研究团队指出，人们对长相阳刚的男性怀有警惕心，或许算得上是一种进化优势。这类面部特征包括立体的眉骨、棱角分明的下颌和略薄的嘴唇等。这种警惕心使得异性恋的女性能够揪出花心的另一半，也使得男性能够发现潜在的对手——这些对手可能会勾引其伴侣，甚至让他们抚养别人的骨肉而不自知。

主句为 The team said sth.，下划线的部分为宾语从句，在该从句中，动名词 being suspicious of sth 作主语，情态动词 might 和行为动词 offer 一起构成从句中的谓语。中间破折号部分 such as a strong browridge, strong jaw and thinner lips 为插入语，补充说明前面的 masculine features。其后，现在分词 allowing 作伴随状语，引导伴随状语从句，这里的核心结构是两个并列的 allow sb. to do sth.，一个是 allow women to spot a flaky partner，另一个是 allow men to recognize a potential rival。值得注意的是，此处的伴随状语从句的结尾又嵌套了一个 who 引导的定语从句，用于修饰 a potential rival。

The results showed men and women as a whole gave higher scores of unfaithfulness to the images of men who had self-reported more cheating or poaching.

研究结果显示，对于那些自曝在感情中劈腿和当“第三者”经历更多的男士，男性和女性实验参与者整体给他们的照片评出的“花心指数”也是更高的。

句子的主干部分为 The results showed sth.，动词 show 的后面接宾语从句。这个从句的主干是画下划线的部分，men and women 为主语，gave scores to sth. 是从句的谓语和宾语。此外，该宾语从句中还嵌套了一个由 who 引导的定语从句 who had self-reported more cheating or poaching，修饰 men。
