1. Replace each italicized words with a synonymous one.

It is believed that our inherited (1) genetic characteristics play the decisive (2) role in our
being beautiful, attractive and appealing to other individuals. Although there is no
clear (3)
theory on what beauty really is and how it works, the results of a recent scientific
research
(4) seem to confirm (5) the hypothesis that our facial features are determined (6) by
our
brains. Their possible role is to reflect (7) health and fertility as well as genetic superiority
- the quality that people, supposedly (8), share with animals which, like humans, have
their own sexual preferences. Most species of birds, for example, rely on the brightest
colours of plumage when selecting (9) their partners (10). To them, the vivid shades
(11) of the feathers indicate the potential partner's genetic fitness to produce healthy
children (12).
In humans, similarly, beauty shows(13) our well-being and our sexual attractiveness, but
as far as our facial characteristics are taken into account, people tend (14) to regard as
extremely charming (15) the taces with the highest degree of symmetry. And equalily
effectively, the facial properties may also indicate the appeal of the whole body.
