         One day, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. He wanted
    to collect money for his schooling. When he got home, he found there was a lottery (彩票) among the
    money.    
         The next day, he went there again, put his hat on the ground. Meanwhile he took out a large piece
    of paper and laid it on the ground. It said, "Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important
    thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to get it soon. "Then he began playing.
         It caused a great excitement and people wondered what it could be. After half an hour, a man ran
    there and said, "Yes, it's you. You did come here. I knew that you re an honest man and would certainly
    come here. "    
         The young violinist asked calmly, "Are you Mr. George Sang?"

         "Lottery. It's a lottery", said the man.    
         The violinist gave him the lottery.    
         George was excited to see the lottery. He said he bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. The awards
    opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000.
         Later someone asked the violinist, " Why didn't you take the lottery ticket for yourself? Then you
    don't have to play here."

    　　The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student in English“You speak very good English”．But the student answered,“No, no．My English is very poor．”The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer．Thinking he had not made himself understand or the student had not heard him clearly, he said,“Yes, indeed, you speak very well．”But the Chinese student still kept saying“No”．In the end the foreigner gave up and didn't know what to say．

    　　What is wrong with the student's answer?It is because he didn't accept a compliment as the English people do．He should have said“Thank you”instead of“No”He actually understood what the American had said．But he thought he should be modest．If he said“Thank you”, that would mean he was too proud．According to the Western culture, if someone says the dishes, you have cooked are very delicious, you should say“Thank you”．If someone says to a woman“You look so beautiful with the new clothes on”, she should be very happy and answer“Thank you”．In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad thing．But in the West, if you are modest and say“No, I'm afraid I can't do it well”, then the others will take it for granted that you really can-not do it．If you often say“No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by others．If asking for a job, one says something like“Yes, I can certainly do it”instead of“Let me have a try on the job”, he or she will expect to get it．So in the West, one should always be confident．Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere．Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competitions is quite keen．
