Thinking he had not made2understood or the girl had not3him clearly, he said, "Yes, indeed, you speak very well. "4the girl still kept saying,
"No. "In the end, the American boy could not understand and didn't know 5to say.
What's wrong with the girl's answer? She didn't6a compliment (恭维)in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, "Thank you" instead of "No". She7 understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest(谦虚的).

But in my opinion, being confident does not 11 being proud, so sometimes you should be confident 12being modest.
