You are strongly attracted to Mario, and you very much want him to like you, too, but you're afraid that if you open your mouth, he won't like you. If you're too nervous to interact with Mario, you can take advantage of the mere exposure effect and
 
  a. accidentally brush up against him once when you stand in line to buy coffee.
  b. frequent the same coffee shop that he goes to, making sure that he sees you every day.
  c. ask a friend to point you out the next time you happen to be in the same coffee shop.
  d. expose your worst features first, and your strongest features later.

Question 2

  what new television shows are worth watching, and what books you've been reading lately. You both see eye-to-eye on a lot. After the conversation, you like the young woman. Based on a large number of social-psychological experiments, why is that so?
  a. You are an extrovert, she is an introvert, and opposites attract.
  b. We tend to be attracted to people who hold similar attitudes.
  c. We tend to like people who agree on minor points, but disagree on major points.
  d. Because you agreed on so much, the functional distance between you was low.
