She didn39。t 6 a pliment(恭維) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer Thank you instead of No. She 7 understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the west, people will feel proud and 8 when they are praised.

So in the west, you should be brave to show your selfconfidence.1. A. ButB. ThoughC. OrD. So2. A. excitedB. surprisedC. relaxedD. frightened3. A. itselfB. herselfC. himselfD. themselves4.
