Ⅲ.Short Answera. 1) There is a tendency for foreigners to treat strangers as equals, seen inthe politeness with which foreigners treat out-group members and their willingness to follow public rules and laws that guarantee the rights of all. 2) There is a desire for independence and separateness, found in foreigners' needs for their own privacy and autonomy and in the freedom they give to children. 3) There is a lack of inhibition on the part of foreigners in terms of expressive behaviors, seen in their lack of concern about drawing at tention to themselves and their willingness to disclose feelings and emoti ons. 4) There is a lack of understanding if the reciprocal bonds and duties that regulate in-group members, found in foreigners' casual attitudes towa rds hospitality. 5) There is a lack of concern at public displays of physical or sexual intimacy.b. The reason might be that even the freedom with which foreigners expre ss love and sexual desire can be seen as a valorization of the individual's pursuit of personal pleasure and happiness. That this is offensive to attenti on from the group and focuses it on individual needs.c. Individualists tend to believe in equality; their communication norms st ress equal treatment of subordinate and superior, friend and stranger. In c ontrast, collectivists‟ communication norms often stress deference; a cle ar demarcation is made between one‟s treatment of those above and belo w one in the social hierarchy. Clearly, to a collectivist, the way individual ists treat strangers will seem unusual and unnecessarily polite.Ⅲ短的回答答：1）有一个外国人对待陌生人是平等的趋势，看到在礼貌与外国人治疗组成员，他们愿意遵守公共规则和法律，保障所有人的权利。
