One day, I happened to meet an Englishman in the street and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be very surprised, gently shaking his head and saying, "You don"t say! You don"t say!" I was puzzled (困惑的), and I thought, "Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about." So I said to him, "Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever been there?" "Certainly. When I"m back home, everyone will laugh at me if I leave here without seeing it. The Great Wall is wonderful!" "Yes, it is one of the wonders in the world. And people of many countries have come to visit it." As I went on telling him more about it, he stopped me again, "You don"t say!" I couldn"t help asking, "Why do you ask me not to talk about it?" "Well, I didn"t ask you to do so." he answered, greatly surprised. "Didn"t you say "You don"t say!"?" I asked again. Hearing this, the foreigner laughed loudly. He began to explain, " "You don"t say!" means "Really?" Perhaps you know little about English idioms (习惯用语)." Wow! How foolish I was! Since then I have been careful with English idioms. 根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。 ( ) 1. The foreigner didn"t want to listen to the writer to talk about how he was studying English. ( ) 2.

Once there were five beggars (乞丐). One was English, one Turkish, one Greek, one was an Arab and one was Persian. One day they met and decided to stay together, sharing what they had and helping each other in trouble times. Soon a man passed them in the street and gave them a coin. They talked about what to do with it. At last they decided to buy something to eat. "Let"s buy some grapes!" said the Englishman. But the Turkish wanted "uzum", the Arab "aneb", the Greek "stafelea", and the Persian insisted on (坚持) "angur". They did not understand each other"s language very well. Soon they were quarrelling and even fighting. While they were fighting about how to spend the money, a stranger came along. He knew all the five languages. He asked them why they were fighting. After they told him, he said, "Give me your coin. I will buy what you want." He was soon back with a bunch of grapes. Each beggar was happy, as each had what he had wanted.
