And now, scientists say that it can also tell us our height.Scientists at Washington University, Indiana University and University of California found that listene

20、rs could accurately tell the height of speakers, just by their voices. And the key to this mystery is a sound known as the subglottal resonance（声门下共振）. Itdeepenswith height and helps us build a mental picture of a person.“The best way to think about subglottal resonances is to imagine blowing into a

21、 glass bottle with water. The less water in the bottle, the lower sound,” said John Morton, a scientist at Washington University. And its the same for humans. The frequency of the subglottal resonance depends on the height. The taller we are, the deeper the resonance frequency is. In order to find o

28、r, Clare Balding wrote for The Telegraph. In the Middle Ages in Western societies, the horse was a symbol of chivalry（骑士神）and nobility(贵族).
