Six-year-old Raymond, who is African American, seems to be a very bright boy. He began reading simple picture books when he was four years old, and he can solve many one-digit addition and subtraction problems in his head. Yet on his first day of school, when his new teacher asks him where he lives and whether he has any brothers or sisters, he looks down at his feet and gives his answer. With the textbook's discussion of cultural differences in verbal interaction in mind, identify the most likely explanation of Raymond's behavior.
◦ He is accustomed to speaking only in chorus with other children.
◦ He has been taught not to look adults directly in the eye.
◦ He has been taught that saying anything at all to adults is rude.
◦ He has learned that to be polite, he must allow a wait time of a minute or more.
