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  41  at the answer. Thinking he had not made  42   understood or the girl had not    43  him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak very well.”   44  the girl still kept saying, “No.” In the end the American boy could not understand and didn’t know    45   to say.

What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t   46   a compliment (恭維) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, “Thank you” instead of “No”. She   47   understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the  48  , people will feel proud and  49   when they are praised . So if someone says the     50    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  51   being proud, so sometimes you should be confident  52   being modest.

     53  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    54  . 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     55    get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence.
