【英语作文阅读】“一日出轨，终生出轨”是有科学依据的！！

According to some scientific research, there could actually be some fact behind the idiom. 

根据一些科学研究，这个成语背后可能存在一些事实。

A new study, published in the journal Archives of Sexual Behaviour, followed 484 participants in mixed gender romantic relationships. The researchers asked the participants to report their own "extra-dyadic sexual involvement" -- having sexual relations with someone other than their partner -- and also whether they had suspected their partners of infidelity in each romantic relationship they had been in. 

发表在“性行为档案”杂志上的一项新研究跟踪了484名混合性别恋爱关系的参与者。研究人员要求参与者报告他们自己的“额外的二元性行为” - 与他们的伴侣以外的人发生性关系 - 以及他们是否曾怀疑他们所处过的每个浪漫关系中的不忠行为。

The results showed that people who had messed around in their first relationship were three times more likely to cheat in their next relationship compared to those who had stayed faithful.

调查结果显示，与保持忠诚的人相比，在他们的第一次关系中陷入困境的人在下一次关系中欺骗的可能性是他们的三倍。 

Those who knew that their previous partners had cheated on them were twice as likely to have their next partners do the dirty on them too. Suspicion also appeared to be hard to shake, as people who suspected their first relationship partners of cheating were four times more likely to report suspicion in later relationships. 

那些知道他们以前的合作伙伴欺骗过他们的人，他们的下一个合作伙伴也有可能做坏事的两倍。怀疑也似乎难以动摇，因为怀疑他们的第一个关系伴侣作弊的人在后来的关系中报告怀疑的可能性是他们的四倍。 

One reason for this could be the fact that when we lie, our brain actually gets used to it. This was the finding of a study published in Nature Neuroscience, which showed that telling small lies desensitises our brains to the associated negative emotions, which may encourage us to tell bigger lies in the future. 

造成这种情况的一个原因可能是，当我们撒谎时，我们的大脑实际上习惯了它。这是发表在“自然神经科学”上的一项研究的结果，该研究表明，讲述小谎言会使我们的大脑对相关的负面情绪不敏感，这可能会鼓励我们在未来说出更大的谎言。

In other words, those little white lies we tell all the time might build up into bigger, more serious untruths.

换句话说，我们所说的那些小小的白色谎言可能会变成更大，更严重的谎言。
