What are two things that will make light bend?

Two of the things that can bend light waves are gravity and any type of refractive medium. For refractive mediums, the light travels from a less dense medium (like air) into a denser one (like water) such that its speed changes. Different substances have different indices of refraction. Bending of light by gravity is detectable on enormous areas like in space (eclipses, black holes, etc.)

Why can you see your reflection on a shiny surface?

Sometimes, water can act as a mirror. The light that the sun gives off has bounced off of you into the water. When the light reaches the surface of the water, it can do two things. Firstly, it can be refracted underneath the surface. Secondly, it can be reflected back at you and into your eye. Usually, both occurs, although whether enough reflection occurs to make you see your reflection or not depends on several factors. Your eye does something similar. It picks up the light from the sun that has bounced off of objects and creates a picture out of it. While the water acts like a mirror and your eye acts like a lens, the concept is very similar.
