轻巧夺冠周测月考直通名校系列答案One day, I heard an American boy say to a Chinese girl student, “You speak very good English.” But the girl answered, “No, no. My English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite 1 at the answer. Thinking he had not made 2 understood or the girl had not 3 him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak very well.” 4 the girl still kept saying, “No.” In the end the American boy could not understand and didn’t know 5 to say.
What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t 6 a compliment (恭维) 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 8 , people will feel proud and 9 when they are praised . So if someone says the 10 you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, “Thank you.”
In our country we think being modest is a virtue (美德) and being proud is a bad thing , but in my opinion, being confident does not 11 being proud, so sometimes you should be confident 12 being modest.
13 you are modest and say, “No, I’m afraid I can’t 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 it” instead of “Let me have a try”, he or she will 15 get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence.
