阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。

Most people agree that the direct, assertive(过分自信的) American personality is a virtue, but it sometimes surprises foreigners. In many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. But in the U.S, children often argue with their parents, students may _____________, and citizens may express opposition to the actions of the government. If the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew, the diner can complain to the waiter, if the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out.

Some straight talk about the American character must include the admission that Americans have their faults. The extremely competitive nature of Americans is probably their worst fault. Of course, competition isn’t always bad. As a matter of fact, it promotes excellence by encouraging individuals and businesses to try to do their best. But the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to do things that are unkind and even dishonest. Also, Americans admire what is practical, fast, efficient, and fresh. Sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional, leisurely ways of doing things. On the other hand, people from other cultures may dislike the practical, challenging American lifestyle.

Despite culture differences, most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues. Americans are generally viewed as friendly, adaptable, energetic, and kindhearted. Most newcomers to the U.S. like Americans, and the feeling is usually mutual. Perhaps the greatest American virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new people. In a nation of immigrants, the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long.

书面表达参考范文：

The Hope Project

Education plays an important part in the modernization of our country. Without improving education, china will not be able to develop fast or can not catch up with the developed countries technologically and economically.

However, in the west mountainous part of China there are still many school-aged children who can not go to school or study in poor conditions. They need badly help from all China. I think money seems to be the biggest problem. As there are thousands of things to be done in the construction of our country, the government could hardly have enough money to help all those poor children in time. So a nation-wide drive(运动) called the “Hope Project” has been launched to help those children.

The “Hope Project” helps the government a lot financially(财政上). It also brings hope to the children who can not go to school only by depending on their parents. Therefore, I hope that more and more people should join in the “Hope Project” to help the poor children. 附听力参考范文

W: But today it is quite different, isn’t it?
