M: Well, it depends on the traffic, but shouldn't toke more than twenty minutes for the average driver. And I'm not average. So we should be able to cruise through traffic and get there in less than twelve minutes.
W: Oh. By the way, do you know what time the museum closes?
M: Around 6:00 o'clock.
W: Do you have the time?
M: Yeah. It's half past four. Hi, this is your first time to the city, right?
W: Yeah.How did you know?
M: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in this city because they walk down the street looking straight up at the tall buildings.
W: Was it that obvious?
M: Well...
W: Oh, before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurant downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price?
M: Umm...well, the Mexican restaurant, La Fajita, is fantastic. It's not as inexpensive as other places I know, but the decoration is very authentic, and theportions are larger than most places I've been to.
W: Sounds great! How do I get there from the museum?
M: Well, you can take the subway right outside the museum. There are buses that run that way, but you would have to transfer a couple of times. And there are taxis too, but they don't run by the museum that often.
M: Okay. Thank you so much.

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 shoulder is imitated by an admiring fan; a pair of lovers both shake their heads in the same way; an employee finds himself duplicating his boss's habit of wagging (摇摆) 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 m 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 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 la law-court to influence a judge, imitates the great man shrugging of his shoulders, the tone of his voice and the rhythm of his speech.
Of course, physical mirroring must be subtle. If you blind (眨眼) every time your target blinks, or bite your bottom lip every time he does, your mirroring has become mockery (嘲笑) 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, paragraph 4) means ______.
A.the attraction to people with ideas, belief 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, or love, or admire
A.Choose the right colors for your personality.
B.Make a special effort to learn the language of color.
C.Wear bright colors to make you look energetic and capable.
D.It might be helpful to know something about how colors affect people around.
No matter what you write or draw,__________.
A.you don’t have to carry your laptop along.
B.the information will be shown digitally on the pen.
C.Fedex has special software to store your information
D.it works like an ordinary pen.
E.you simply place the pen into its computer-connected cradle.
F.the movement of your pen is recorded digitally inside the pen.

Less than three years ago, the Parisi Hotel was just an office building above the shops on the corner of Prospect Street. Now, that valuable space is an intimate luxury hotel -- with several rooms overlooking the ocean. You'll be amazed when you enter from the corner and ascend the curving staircase to the second-floor lobby. It will take you into a different world.
What will you find when you enter the large contemporary lobby is a handsome and peaceful space that was designed with a hint of Tuscany (托斯卡娜,意大利中西部地名) in its modern Mediterranean (地中海式的) style. The lobby has a large fireplace with comfortable sofas in warm neutral colors surrounding it. You'll feel relaxed just sitting there with its skylight overhead letting in the morning sun.
All the rooms are more like suites, with large comfortable beds, beautiful baths and stylish custom- designed furnishings and art throughout.
The Parisi Hotel is the perfect place for seniors because it's quiet and restful -- with only 20 rooms. You won't find many hotels like this in the center of a tourist town.
The shops are all around you. Likewise for some of the city's best restaurants, you will never have to take your car out of the garage during your stay. And, by the way, the underground parking lot at the Parisi Hotel is free for hotel guests.
Once you stay at this little gem (珍宝), you'll want to return again and again. I know we do. It's a perfect place for seniors.
Rates for standard suites begin at $275. You can call the hotel for reservation at (858) 454-1531. The Parisi Hotel is located at 1111 Prospect St. right across from La Valencia.
The Pafisi Hotel is described as ______.
A.a luxury hotel with comfortable facilities
B.a large hotel famous for its rooms facing the ocean
C.a good place for escaping away from the noisy city
D.a tourist attraction full of amazing corners
