33、ou.Growing evidence shows that an instinct for facial mimicry(模仿)allows us to empathize(产生共鸣)with and even experience other peoples feelings.If we cant mirror another persons face,it limits our ability to read and properly react to their expressions.A review of this emotional mirroring appears on Fe
