Pei Pei Hu<br />

asked me <strong>to</strong>o many questions, and I perceived her anxiety and incapability.<br />

Therefore, I believed that it should be important not <strong>to</strong> request assistance<br />

from <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs when working <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

Pei Pei did not share much information about her perceptions for <strong>the</strong><br />

cooperation strategy. Pei Pei only talked about how communication became similar<br />

<strong>to</strong> an in-class discussion but not in a daily life conversation:<br />

When using cooperation strategy, it was like I was discussion with my<br />

classmates in a seminar. My classmates and I exchanged information and<br />

knowledge and learned from each o<strong>the</strong>r at <strong>the</strong> same time. It was also more<br />

like a “discussion” situation. It is more complex than just a simple<br />

communication situation.<br />

Pei Pei expressed that cooperation was a foundation <strong>of</strong> friendship and, within<br />

cooperation, <strong>the</strong>re would be no misunderstanding and doubts among friends. Pei Pei<br />

advised that whenever any doubts appeared, <strong>the</strong> behavior <strong>of</strong> clarifying should emerge,<br />

especially during doubts in communication. Pei Pei remarked that she had observed<br />

that <strong>the</strong> spirit <strong>of</strong> cooperation would be found without difficulty in <strong>the</strong> situations <strong>of</strong><br />

playing balls, such as playing baseball, s<strong>of</strong>tball, or basketball. In <strong>the</strong> athletics class at<br />

school, she enjoyed cooperating with her classmates and playing ball with <strong>the</strong>m. Pei<br />

Pei pointed out when <strong>the</strong> members in a team can cooperate with each o<strong>the</strong>r, this team<br />

would win over <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side easier.<br />
