Jeremy feels that gloria is far too good looking for him, but he's comfortable dating jody, since he sees her as about as physically attractive she is. a psychologist would say jeremy is illustrating the hypothesis.

a. matching
b. reciprocity
c. looking glass
d. similarity

A. matching

Explanation:

-The matching hypothesis refers to a theory that states that people tend to have long relationships with someone they think is equally attractive as they are.

-The reciprocity hypothesis refers to a theory that says that people will respond to a positive action in a positive way and in a negative way to a negative action.

-The looking glass hypothesis states that a person grows through the interaction with other people and what he/she perceives is the perception they have.

-The similarity hypothesis says that people are attracted to others that are similar to them.

According to this, the answer is that Jeremy is illustrating the matching hypothesis.

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
