　　Read the text carefully and be prepared to answer the question:
　　Anger
　　In American culture, getting angry is considered appropriate in certain contexts.  When someone treats you unfairly, Americans think it right to show him you are a little ticked off.  Of course, people who throw temper tantrums or who overreact are frowned upon for their bad behavior.  But people who are in the right are expected to defend themselves instead of "letting other people walk all over them."  In some cases, people with a reputation for "blowing their stacks" have even wound up becoming company president.
