She bring home too many trophy," lamented Auntie Lindo that Sunday. "All day she play chess. All day I have no time do nothing but dust off her winnings." She threw a scolding look at Waverly, who pretended not to see her.

"You lucky you don't have this problem," said Auntie Lindo with a sigh to my mother.

And my mother squared her shoulders and bragged: "Our problem worser than yours. If we ask Jing-mei wash dish, she hear nothing but music. It's like you can't stop this natural talent."

And right then, I was determined to put a stop to her foolish pride.

The conversation between Auntie Lindo and Suyuan Woo is an example of which of the following characteristics of Chinese culture?

Obedience to authority is valued.

Information is expressed indirectly.

People in charge are responsible for actions of their subordinates.

Failure to abide by conventions of behavior can be shameful for the entire family.

Holly Blackburn · Answer 1

Information is expressed indirectly.

Explanation:

In these lines, we see that both Auntie Lindo and Jing-mei's mother are trying to brag about their children. They both want the other person to learn of how accomplished and talented the children are. However, they are too embarrassed to say it openly. Instead, both characters engage in a complex conversation in which information is conveyed in an indirect way.
