Beauty sleep is a real thing. Researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive(有魅力的)to others. 26.
The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment. 27. A week later，they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row.
28.Next，they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge (评价)them on attractiveness，health，and sleepiness，as well as asking them：How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture？
The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired，and if they were sleepy，their attractiveness score was low. 29.The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words，people don't want to hang around(闲逛) with people who might be ill.
