Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

(2025·黑龙江哈尔滨联考)Have you ever been in mid­conversation with someone, when you look over and find them standing in the same position as you or holding the same facial expression? It may seem like they have purposely copied you, but it is much more likely that this is the chameleon (变色龙) effect at play.

The chameleon effect is the unintentional copying of another person's physical expressions.Just as a chameleon changes its color to match its current surroundings, people copy the behavior of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth and well­received.Evidence that the chameleon effect was a real phenomenon was demonstrated (证实) in experiments by psychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand in 1999.They wanted to see if the chameleon effect worked in both acquaintances (熟人) and complete strangers.

The first of their experiments included 78 people, who each spoke with an experimenter.During the test，Bargh and Chartrand studied whether participants would copy the actions of someone they hadn't met before—such as moving a foot or touching the face.The

second experiment measured the impact that copying someone had on the person being copied.

In the first stage, when body language was applied, participants increased their face touching by 20% and their foot movement by 50%.The second experiment involved half of the participants being copied, and then gauging the likeability of the experimenter.The results showed that those who were copied gave the experimenter higher marks.

Researchers still couldn't explain the unintentional mirrored movements.However, similar studies have shown that when someone copies our behavior, we develop more positive feelings about them.These interactions could be about a person unintentionally hoping to be liked and forming a moment of connection.Another theory is as an adapted survival feature.Being able to fit in with those around you and being accepted into a group means that there are others who can have your back when under threat.
