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 (恭维) 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.

Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then 31 ? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who 32 corn （玉米） all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market to take part in a competition. Then each time his corn was chosen as the 33 and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something 34 about how he grew it. The farmer 35 his seed corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the 36 with you each year. "
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The 37 picks up pollen （花粉)from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow 38 corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will affect the quality(质量) of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must 39 my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve 40 his neighbor's corn improves.

So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find 45 in their life.
