【题目】 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 surprised ________ the answer. Thinking he had not made ________ understood or the girl had not listened to him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak very well.” But the girl still kept saying: “No, no.” This time 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 ________ did understand what the American boy said, but she thought she should be modest (谦虚的). In the ________, people will feel proud (骄傲) and ________ when they are praised (表扬). So if someone says the dishes you 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 mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident ________ being modest.

If you are modest and say, “No, I’m afraid I can’t do it” while working in a western country, others may think that you really can’t do it. If you often say “No”, you will certainly be looked down by ________. 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 ________. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence.

【解析】

本篇文章难度适中,主要讲述中国人与西方人对待人们的称赞时不同的回答方式。在中国,当有人称赞你时,你用“没有,哪里”,表示的是一种谦虚,而在西方国家,人们称赞你时,你要感到骄傲和自豪,应说“谢谢”。在西方,如果你说“我做的不好”时,会被人看不起。

1句意“外国人对这个回答非常吃惊”。

4句意“她没有与美国人那样相同的方法来接受恭维”。

5句意“她真地理解了这个小男孩说的,但是她认为她应该谦虚”。

本题考查副词辨析。A.几乎不;B.真地;C.差不多,几乎;D.糟糕地。根据Thinking he had not made ____2____ understood“他认为她没有被理解”以及but she thought she should be modest“但是她认为她应该谦虚”可知,这个小女孩真地理解这个小男孩说的话。故选B

本题考查形容词辨析。A.振奋的;B.谦虚的;C.害羞的;D.自信的。根据But in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident ____8____ being modest“但是我认为,自信并不意味着骄傲,所以有时你应该自信而不是谦虚”可知,表示他们被表扬时,他们会骄傲和自信,故选D

8句意“但是我认为,自信并不意味着骄傲,所以有时你应该自信而不是谦虚”。

A.一……就……(引导时间状语从句);B.也;C.而不是;D.由于。根据But in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud“依我看,自信不意味着骄傲”可知,作者认为我们应该自信而不是谦虚。故选C
