Answer:
- short-tempered
- thick-skinned
- well-behaved
- open-minded
- hard-working

A short-tempered person could also be described as an impatient or an irascible individual.
A thick-skinned person is able to endure a significant amount of criticism or discomfort without being overly affected.
A well-behaved person follows the rules.
An open-minded person does not criticize what he or she perceives as different, but rather accepts it as something new.
A hard-working person is diligent and productive.
An easy-going person does not stress too easily or become angry or irate over trivial issues.

In other words, he does not need to be a hyphenated American in order to have a heritage because it is right there “dangling over his head”.
The symbolism of the “tall American tree” is used to show how the speaker of these lines that America has its own heritage, which lies in its history, its melting pot and its territory and he cannot even see it. It is this symbolism that provides the contrasting perspective.
