We are all naturally attracted to people with ideas, beliefs and interests like our own. Similarly, we feel comfortable with people with physical qualities similar to ours.
You may have noticed how people who live or work closely together come to behave in a similar way. Unconsciously we copy those we are close to or love or admire. So a sportsman’s individual way of walking with raised shoulders is imitated by an admiring fan; a pair of lovers both shake their heads in the same way; an employee finds himself duplicating (模仿,复制) his boss’s habit of wagging a pen between his fingers while thinking.
In every case, the influential person may not consciously notice the imitation, but he will feel comfortable in its presence. And if he does notice the matching of his gestures or movements, he finds it pleasing he is influencing people: they are drawn to him.
Sensitive people have been mirroring their friends and acquaintances all their lives, and winning affection and respect in this way without being aware of their methods. Now, for people who want to win agreement or trust, affection or sympathy, some psychologists recommend the deliberate use of physical mirroring.
The clever saleswoman echoes her lady customer’s movements, tilting (倾斜) her head in the same way to judge a color match, or folding her arms a few seconds after the customer, as though consciously attracted by her. The customer feels that the saleswoman is in sympathy with her, and understands her needs—a promising relationship for a sale to take place.
The clever lawyer, trying in a law-court to influence a judge, imitates the great man’s shrugging of his shoulders, the tone of his voice and the rhythm of his speech.
Of course, physical mirroring must be subtle. If you blink (眨眼) every time your target blinks, or bite your bottom lip every time he does, your mirroring has become mockery (嘲笑, 讥讽) and you can expect trouble. So, if you can’t model sympathetically, don’t play the game.
According to the passage, "physical mirroring" (Line 4, Para. 4) means______.
选项
A、the attraction to people with ideas, beliefs and interests like our own
B、the comfortable feeling about people with physical qualities similar to ours
C、the fact that people living or working closely together behave in a similar way
D、the imitation of the gestures or movements of those we are close to, love or admire
答案
D
解析
本题是一道词汇含义类问题。问文章中第四段第四行中的physical mirroring是什么意思。根据文章全文内容,作者在介绍模仿体态动作的问题,而第四段作者又指出,敏感的人一生都在模仿他们的朋友或熟人,并且在不知不觉中以此赢得他们的好感和尊重。现在,对于那些希望赢得赞同、信任、好感或同情的人来说,一些心理学家推荐他们可以有意使用体态模仿法。因此,本题的正确答案应是D“模仿我们熟悉、热爱和尊敬的人的言谈举止”。
