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!" I was puzzled, 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! Everyone at home 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 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 don'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 (习语) ."
Wow! How foolish I was ! Since then I began to learn more English idioms.

In the United States, headmasters and teachers discipline (惩罚) students in several ways. The teacher often writes to or calls the students' parents. Sometimes students have to stay at school for one hour. If a student behaves very badly, the headmaster can stop the student having classes. The student can't come to school for one, two or three days. Mr. Lazarus, the headmaster of a middle school in Ohio, did not like to do so. When he didn't let the students come to school, they were happy. "A three-day holiday!" they thought.
One day, a boy was in Mr. Lazarus' office. The boy was not behaving well in class. Mr. Lazarus telephoned the boy's parents. "If you come to school with your son, I won't stop him having classes,"he said. The boy's father came to school and went with his son to every class. Other students looked at the boy and his father. The boy was embarrassed. After that he behaved better. And, of course, other students behaved better, too.
Now headmasters all over the USA are trying Mr. Lazarus's idea. They too, think that students behave better when parents come to school.
11. What does a headmaster usually do to the student if he behaves very badly?
A. He stops the student having classes for several days.
B. He makes the student stay at school for one hour.
C. He calls the student's parents.
12.When a student was stopped having classes for two or three days, he was
___________.
A. happy
B. angry
C. worried
13. What did Mr. Lazarus do when his students were not behaving well in class?
A. Tried to talk to them.
B. Sent them home.
C. Telephoned their parents to come to school and go to classes with them.
14.Why did the other students behave better, too?
A. They didn't like to have classes with the boy's father.
B. They didn't want their parents to come to school.
C. They were afraid of teachers.
15. In the United States, a student will be ________ when his parents have classes with him.
A. happy

D
Dear editor,
I live in a beautiful city. Many visitors come to my city every year because there are so many colorful peacocks (孔雀) here. The peacocks mostly live on the grassland of Dongfeng Square. Visitors usually throw food to them, but they don’t think about at all whether the food is good or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, and some even died eating the bad food given by visitors. I’m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the bird, but they don’t realize that they may be doing them harm (伤害). Visitors should be told that what they have done is harmful to the birds, and this kind of thing must be stopped. Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food. For us every person, it is our duty to give more love to these beautiful birds to look after them carefully.
Yours,
Wang Yang
