【英语阅读】推测孩子未来身高的方程式

Would you like to know if your child is set to stand head and shoulders above the rest? Or if they're likely to stay diminutive into adulthood? 

Want to know if your child's future height will stand out? Or will it always be so short?
 
There is an easy (although fallible) mathematical equation that can help you predict how tall your child will be.
 
The formula, which has been used since the 1970s and was revealed in the New York Times, predicts that 'most (but not all) children will reach a height somewhere within a fairly small range that can be estimated by the average combined heights of their parents.' 
 
How does it work? 
 
BOYS 
Add the heights of both parents plus 5in (13cm) and divide by two. 
 
GIRLS 
Add the heights of both parents minus 5in (13cm) and divide by two. 
 
These predictions are by no means completely reliable, however, as environmental factors such as nutrition play a big part in determining human height.

译文:

您是否想知道您的孩子是否能够站在其他人的头上? 或者,如果他们可能在成年期保持小型化?


想知道您孩子的未来身高是否会突出? 还是会一直这么短?
 
有一个简单(虽然容易错误)的数学方程式可以帮助您预测您孩子的身高。
 
自20世纪70年代开始使用并在“纽约时报”上发表的公式预测,“大多数(但不是所有)儿童将在相当小的范围内达到某个高度,可以通过他们的平均综合高度来估计 父母。'
 
它是如何工作的?
 
BOYS
加上父母加上5英寸(13厘米)的高度并除以2。
 
GIRLS
将父母双方的身高减去5英寸(13厘米)并除以2。
 
然而,这些预测绝不是完全可靠的,因为营养等环境因素在决定人体身高方面起着重要作用。
