三、完形填空(10分)
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 36 at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the girl had not 37 him clearly, he said, "Yes, indeed, you speak very well. " 38 the girl still kept saying, "No." In the end, the American boy could not understand and didn't know what to say.
What's wrong with the girl's answer? She didn't 39 a compliment(恭维) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, "Thank you" instead of "No". She 40 understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the west, people will feel proud and 41 when they are praise. So if someone says the 42 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 43 being proud, so sometimes you should be confident instead of being modest.
44 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 45 . 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 expect to get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence.
( )36. A excited B. surprised C. relaxed D. frightened
( )37. A. heard B. watched
C. listened to
D. looked at
( )38. A. Though B. Although C. Or D. But
( )39. A. receive B. accept C. refuse D. disagree
( )40. A. hardly B. really C. rarely D. badly
( )41. A. dutiful(尽职的) B. modest
C. shameful
D. confident(自信的)
( )42. A. dishes B. cups C. glasses D. bowls
( )43. A. think B. say C. mean D. ask
( )44. A. Unless B. Until C. If D. Whether
( )45. A. another B. the other C. others D. the others

Tigers are big and strong. They have very bright eyes. They have orange fur and black strips. They run very fast. They are good at hunting other animals. They live as a family if they have babies. Baby tigers learn how to catch other animals by watching their mothers. But they are in danger because people like their fur and make medicine from their bones. They will have nowhere to live if farmers continue to cut down trees and forests. We should take action to protect them If we do nothing, soon there will be no tigers in the world.

The king of the animal一tiger
Tigers are big and strong. They have very bright eyes. They live in the forests or in the mountains. They live mainly on small animals. But sometimes they eat plants and insects.
They can run fast, but only for a short while. They are good at swimming and climbing.
People can make medicine from their bones and make clothes out of their fur. People often hunt them for their bones or fur. Their number is becoming smaller and smaller these years. There are now about 5, 000 tigers left in the world.
Tigers are now in danger. We should take action to protect them.。
