Answer:

culture

Explanation:

Mrs. Bertha Flowers is a character in the book entitled, "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings." She's a black aristocrat who was very helpful to Maya (Marguerite) after Maya was raped. Maya admire her for being educated and well-mannered. She became Maya's role model. Maya describes Bertha as being poised and appearing calm. This social habit is part of Bertha's "culture" because of her social status in life. Clearly, this is something that Maya valued in life.
