Choose the best answer to complete the passage.

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 does not   being proud, so sometimes you should be confident     being modest.
