外婆，好想多一些了解你（下）
外婆养了好几只猫。其实算不上养，因为那些都是流浪猫，突然跑到院子来，给它们吃的，就留下来了。半年或一年后，他们又会突然消失。外婆不想念它们，名字也不取，一只消失，一只又来了。
外婆最害怕冲突，最喜欢亲人团聚。每次他在电话里叫大家回来聚，那种语气，有一丝胆怯。害怕打扰，又鼓起勇气，她一辈子付出，几乎没什么自我表达。全世界的外婆都是这样。我想多了解她一些，可她习惯了沉默，好像从来不需要得到些什么。

关于人的性格、心理感觉的一些词：
1.怕冲突：怕冲突的人喜欢大家都开开心心的。
2.胆怯：这位新同学小声地向大家介绍了自己，有些胆怯。
3.有勇气：能面对失败的人，都是有勇气的人。  他没有勇气做这个决定。
4.付出：他总是付出给别人，不在乎自己得到了什么。
5.表达：他是一个很表达的人。
6.沉默：父亲的爱是一种沉默的爱，总是说得很少，做得很多。
7.温和：外婆是一个温和的胖老太太。
