Long Answer
1. Kitty starts off dismissive of China and Chinese culture, thinking it inferior to British. However, when she goes to Meitan-fu and befriends Waddington her attitude becomes more curious and compassionate, and she starts to see Chinese culture as more spiritual and less materialistic than British culture. (Various chapters)
2. Kitty is terrified of going to Meitan-fu because she feels that she will catch cholera in the epidemic and die there. She thinks that Walter is taking his punishment for her infidelity too far and is frustrated that he will not divorce her. (Chapter 26)
3. While Kitty sees new depths in Walter’s character and admires his courage and sensitivity, this does not change the fact that she finds him difficult to love.
