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 as ours.--71--
You may have noticed about how people who live or work --72-- closely together come to behave in a similar way. Unconsciously we copy these we are close to or love --73-- or admire. So a sportsman’s individual way of walking with raised shoulders is imitated by an admired fan. --74-- a pair or lovers both shake their heads in the same way. an employer finds himself duplicating his boss’s --75-- habit of wagging (摆动) a pen between his fingers while thinking.
In every case, the influential person may consciously --76-- notice the imitation but he will feel comfortably in --77-- 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 them.--78--
Sensitive people have been mirroring their friend and --79-- acquaintances all their lives., and winning affection and respect in this way without aware of their methods. --80-- Now, for people who want to win agreement or trust, affection or sympathy, some psychologists recommend the deliberate use of physical imitation.
