In our country we think being modest(谦虚的) is a virtue(美德) and being proud is a bad thing. One day, I heard an American boy say to a Chinese student, “you speak very good English.” But the girl answered, “No, no. My English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite _______at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the girl had not heard him  ______. He said, “Yes, indeed, you speak very well.” _______ the girl still kept saying. “No.” In the end the American boy could not understand and didn’t know  ______ to say.

What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t ______ a compliment(恭维) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer “Thank you” instead of “No.” She ______ understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the  ______ , people will feel ______ and confident when they are praised. So if someone says the ______ you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, “Thank you”.

If you are modest and say. “No, I’m ______ I can’t do it well”, while working in a western country, people may think that you really can not do it. If you often say, “No”, you’ll certainly be looked down upon by _____ . When asking  _____ a job, if one says something like, “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try”, he or she will_____ get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence. In my opinion, being confident doesn’t _____ being proud, so sometimes you should be confident _____ being modest.
