阅读下面短文，用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空。（必要时加助动词或情态动词）

The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English "You speak 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 (1)           (understand) or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, "Yes, indeed, you speak very well." But the Chinese student still kept (2)           (say) "No." In the end the foreigner gave up and (3)           ( not know)what to say.      What is wrong with the student's answer? It is because he didn't accept a compliment (称赞) as the English people (4)           (do). He should have said "Thank you!" instead of "No". In fact he knew what the American had said. But he was afraid that people would think he was too proud. According to the Western culture, if someone says the dishes you (5)           (cook) are very delicious, you (6)           (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 (谦虚) is a good thing, but in the west, if you are modest and often say "No", then the others (7)           (agree) that you really cannot do it, and you may (8)           (treat) unfairly (不公平地) 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 (9)           (get) it. So in the west, one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he can't go anywhere. Confidence (10)           (be) one of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite hard.

据专家权威分析，试题“阅读下面短文，用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空。（必要时加助动词..”主要考查你对  故事类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：

故事类阅读

考点名称：故事类阅读

• 故事类阅读：
  文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
  命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
  阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

• 故事类阅读注意：
  初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
  阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。
  
  特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
  而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。
  
  凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。
  
  在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
