“You speak very good English”
The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English. “You 41 very good English.” But the student answered, “ No, my English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite
42 at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself 43 or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still 44 saying “No”. 45 the foreigner gave up and didn’t know what to say.
What’s wrong with the student’s answer? It is because he didn’t accept a compliment as the American people 46 . He should have said “Thank you” instead of “No”. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If someone says to a woman, “ You look 47 beautiful with the new clothes 48 .” she should be very happy and answer, “Thank you.” In our country we think 49 modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad behavior. But in the West, if you are modest and say, “ No, 50 I can’t do it well,” then the others will take it for granted (理所当然)that you 51 can not do it. If you often say,“No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by 52 . When 53 for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try on the job”, he or she can expect to get it. So in the West, one should always be confident. 54 self-confidence, he can’t go anywhere. Confidence is of great 55 to one in a country where competition is quite keen.(激烈)
