My English is very poor. The foreigner was quite 2 at the answer. Thinking he had not made 3 understood or the girl had not heard him clearly, he said, Yes, indeed, you speak very well. But the girl 4 kept saying, No. In the end the American boy could not understand and didn39。t know 5 to say. What39。s wrong with the girl39。s answer? 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 if someone says the dishes you have 9 are very delicious, you should say, Thank you. In our country we think being modest is a virtue(美德) and being 10 is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not 11 being proud. So sometimes you should be confident 12 being modest. If you are modest and say, No, I39。m afraid I 13 do it well, while working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. If you often say No, you will certainly be looked down upon by 14 . When asking for a job, if one says something like Yes, I can certainly do it39。 instead of Let me have a try, he or she will 15 getting it. 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.
