2. What are the reasons for the popularity of kuakuaqun?
a. They meet a lot of psychological needs.
The praising groups come at a time when the mental health of young Chinese is getting attention. As young Chinese seek company and confidence, the praising groups “meet a lot of psychological needs”.
b. They’re also a reflection of Chinese culture.
The popularity of chat groups is also a reflection of Chinese culture, reported Global Times. As many young Chinese are raised to be modest, it’s uncommon for them to openly seek and give praise. As a result, they desire compliments as they grow up.
3. What suggestion does Chen Kan give when people give or receive praise in kuakuaqun?
They should be cautious about giving or receiving praise because the constant emphasis on the “false self” makes it harder to see the “true self”.

Understanding sentences
1. Once admitted, they make complimentary comments about each other and even ask to be complimented on particular things.
分析:本句中once admitted为状语从句的省略,补充完整应为once they are admitted。当主句和从句的主语一致,且从句的谓语动词是be动词时,从句的主语和be动词可以省略。
e.g. 当沉迷学习的时候,他总是废寝忘食。
When (he is) absorbed in study, he forgets all about eating and sleeping.
2. The praising groups come at a time when the mental health of young Chinese is getting attention.
The group allows me to see the good qualities in myself that I often overlook.
分析: 第一处when引导定语从句,作为关系副词代替前面的先行词time在定语从句中作时间状语。
第二处that也引导定语从句,作为关系代词代替前面的先行词good qualities在定语从句中作overlook的宾语。
3....other experts suggest young people adjust and relax through sports and reading, apart from joining praising groups.
分析:此处suggest后面的从句用了虚拟语气,即suggest that sb (should) do sth。常见类似用法的词,大家可以记住下面这个口诀:一坚持(insist), 二命令(order, command),三建议(advise, suggest, propose) 四要求(demand, require, request, desire)。
e.g. He insisted that the meeting be put off.

Discussion
