女性大脑皮层有一个高度发达的系统,能够发现和审视可能的搭档——这个功能可以被称为“马普尔小姐侦探社”(马普尔小姐:即下文中提到的英国著名侦探小说作家阿加莎·克里斯汀笔下的人物——译者注)。
The female cortex contains a highly developed system for finding and scrutinizing a prospective partner—a system that might be dubbed the Miss Marple Detective Agency.
毕竟,阿加莎。克里斯蒂笔下的埃居尔。普瓦罗和马普尔小姐每人仅需要250页的资料就弄清了他们的案件。
After all, Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple needed only about 250 pages each to get to the bottom of their cases.
