Explanation:
“Grandma says he hasn’t got a home—”

Answer:
- short-tempered
- thick-skinned
- well-behaved
- open-minded
- hard-working
- easy-going
Explanation:
As these compound adjectives state with the sum of their two parts, their meanings are a combination of the two elements of the adjective.
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.
It requires you to point things out that are wrong even if it might offend the person who is speaking, writing etc.
