Leonardo Da Vinci spent a lifetime trying to paint one.Scientists and mathematicians have puzzled for centuries over what makes one,while cosmetic surgeons have amassedfortunes striving to create one.And Florence Colgate? Well, she simply has one.
达芬奇终其一生想要画出一张最美的脸。科学家和数学家关于最美的脸的标准冥思苦想了几百年，而外科整形医生则倾其所有试图打造一张最美的脸。那么弗洛伦斯·考盖特呢？她就拥有一张最美的脸。
The 18-year-old student is blessed with what is described as the perfect face. It matches an international blueprint for the optimum ratio between eyes, mouth, forehead and chin, endowing her with flawless proportions.
这名18岁的学生拥有一张堪称完美的面孔。她的双眼、嘴巴、额头以及下巴之间有着最完美的五官比例，而这正好和一份世界完美面孔的结构图相吻合。
In theory, that needn't necessarily cause her to appear anything more than symmetrical(in which department, incidentally, she is also faultless). But the blue-eyed blonde's mathematical dimensions have just added up to success in a competition to find Britain's most naturally beautiful face.
从理论上说，她可能只是五官分布比较匀称（其实从这个意义上说她也是完美的）。但是这位金发碧眼的美女凭借她精确的五官比例从竞争中脱颖而出，成功获得了英国最美的自然面孔的殊荣。
Florence, who has a Saturday job in a seaside chip shop in between studying for her A-levels, beat 8,000 entrantsto win the title. Contestants were judged without make-up and were barred entry if they had had plastic surgery or chemical enhancement.
弗洛伦斯目前正在准备大学入学考试，同时每周六在海边的一家油炸食品店打工。她击败了8000名入围者赢得了这个称号。所有选手都要素颜接受评判，凡是做过整容手术或是通过化学手段美容的人一律不得入选。
Locals wrylysuggested it was the sea air in the Dover Grammar schoolgirl's home town of Deal, Kent, which contributed to her success, or possibly a secret ingredient in Middle Street Fish Bar's chips. But it is the scientific definition of beauty – not to mention a healthy portion of beauty genes from her mother – which gave Florence the crown.
当地人略带挖苦地推测她成功的原因，大概是家乡肯特郡Deal小镇的海滨气息，弗洛伦斯就读于当地的多佛文法学校；或者是这家“中央街道炸鱼吧”的薯条里某种神秘的配料。但真正帮助弗洛伦斯获得这顶桂冠的，是对于美的科学定义，更不用说她还传承了她母亲美丽基因里的健康部分。
A woman's face is said to be most attractive when the space between her pupils is just under half the width of her face from ear to ear. Florence scores a 44 per cent ratio. Experts also believe the relative distance between eyes and mouth should be just over a third of the measurement from hairline to chin. Florence's ratio is 32.8 per cent.
当一个女性的两眼瞳孔间距离小于她双耳间距离的一半时，她的面孔据说是最具吸引力的。在这一项上弗洛伦斯的比例是44%。专家还相信，眼睛到嘴巴之间的相对距离应该刚好超过发际线到下巴距离的1/3。而弗洛伦斯的比例是32.8%。
