“You speak very good English”

  The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English.“You   1   very good English.” But the student answered, “ No, my English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite

    2   at the answer.Thinking he had not made himself   3   or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still   4   saying “No”.  5   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   6  .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   7   beautiful with the new clothes   8  .” she should be very happy and answer, “Thank you.” In our country we think   9   modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad behavior.But in the West, if you are modest and say, “ No,   10   I can't do it well, ” then the others will take it for granted(理所当然)that you   11   can not do it.If you often say, “No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by   12  .When   13   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.  14   self-confidence, he can't go anywhere.Confidence is of great   15   to one in a country where competition is quite keen.(激烈)

  Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock(存货), the salesman produces(呈出)it, and the business of trying it on proceeds(继续进行)at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly chat and to everyone's satisfaction.

  For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly(直率地); he does so with skill. “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you want.” Few men have patience with this treatment. And the usual response(反应,回答)is:“This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

  Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? She does so in a different way, Her shopping is not based on need, She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She will try on any number of things. In her mind there is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Faced with a roomful(一室所能容纳之量)of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour looking around before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

(1) If a man goes shopping, ________.

[  ]

[  ]

A.the salesman brings out a substitute and advises him to buy with skill

B.the salesman suggests him to buy something else

C.the salesman is angry

D.the salesman doesn't know what to do

(3) When a woman goes shopping, ________.

[  ]

A.she does know what she needs

B.she wants something

C.she's only walking around the shop

D.she hasn't decided what she wants

(4)The underlined word “provide” may mean ________.

[  ]

A.ask
