参考答案：

Terms of humility are those expressions used to show the speaker’s modesty. To sound modest and humble, which is important to Chinese people, one might have to use terms of humility to refer to one-self, one’s relatives and one’s belongings. So in Chinese terms of humility are large in number and are used quite frequently in interpersonal communication. English speakers value highly familiarity and therefore do not need many terms of humility in verbal communication.
