　　A year ago I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized (強(qiáng)調(diào)) the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.

　　One day I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said,“You don't say!”I was puzzled. I thought perhaps this is not a proper topic.“Well, I'd better change the topic.”So I said.“Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?”“Certainly. Everybody back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.”He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide.“The Great Wall is one of the seven wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.”Soon I was interrupted again by his words:“You don't say!”. I couldn't help asking.“Why do you ask me not t0 talk about It?”“Well, I didn't request you to do so,”he answered, greatly surprised. I said.“Didn't you say‘you don't say’?”Hearing this, the Englishmen laughed to tears. He began to explain,“‘you don't say’actually means‘Really! ’It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don't pay attention to English idioms.”O(jiān)nly then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.
