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
12、 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 dont say!” “You dont say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, Id better change the topic.” So I sai
13、d to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone 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 wonders
14、 in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words “You dont say!” I couldnt help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didnt request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didnt you say you dont say?” Hearing this, the Englishman
15、 laughed to tears. He began to explain, “You dont say actually means really!. It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you dont pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember - what the Engl
16、ish teachers said is always right to us students.21. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means _.A. interesting B. important C. terrible D. unlucky22.

The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.C. The Englishman wanted me to act as his guid
18、e.D. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.24. After the Englishman explained the idiom, _.A. I thought the Englishman had made me a foolB. the Englishman became a real foolC. I felt very sillyD. I became more careful in everythingBLike fine food, good writing is someth
19、ing we approach with pleasure and enjoy from the first taste to the last. And good writers, like good cooks, do not suddenly appear full-blown. Quite the opposite, just as the cook has to undergo a particular training, mastering the skills of his trade, the writer must sit at his desk and devote lon
20、g hours to achieving a style in his writing, whatever its purpose is - schoolwork, matters of business, or purely social communication.You may be sure that the more painstaking the effort, the more effective the writing, and the more rewarding.There are still some faraway places in the world where y
21、ou might find a public scribe to do your business or social writing for you, for money. There are a few managers who are lucky enough to have the service of that rare kind of secretary who can take care of all sorts of letter writing with no more than a quick note to work from. But for most of us, i
22、f there is any writing to be done, we have to do it ourselves.We have to write school papers, business papers or home papers. We are constantly called on to put words to papers. It would be difficult to count the number of such words, messages, letters, and reports put into mails or delivered by han
23、d, but the daily figures must be extremely large. What is more, everyone who writes expects, or at least hopes whatever he writes will be read, from first word to last, not just thrown into some “letters-to-be-read” files or into a wastepaper basket. This is the reason we bend our efforts toward lea
24、rning and practicing the skills of interesting, effective writing.25.

27、 For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special about it. Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish,
28、not wanting everything from our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.You dont have to be spineless(软弱的) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked and respected if you are not afraid to stand
29、up for your rights. But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your group, to other people and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.You cannot expect to be perfect, and so you must learn not
30、to be unhappy when you make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed(责备) unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged when they know in themselves qualities that they do not like - selfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember
31、 that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.At the same time, it is important to remember that, while you are probably no worse than others, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right.
32、Perhaps you dont like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too. To be sure that you are not doing anything to make that person dislike you. Someday, things may turn out all right, and then you will have to learn to get along the best with situation, without thinking too mu
33、ch about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you cant change.29. One of the two ways the author suggested for us to get along with others is_.A. to draw attention of our friendsB. to demand(要求) the best share of everythingC. to look for treasure in order to be successfulD. to pay more attention

According to the passage, if one wants to be popular, one needs to _.A. be polite and friendly B. give up some rightsC. avoid arguing with other people D. be ready to change his or her character31. The passage shows that there is no perfect person but someone shoul
35、d be blamed if he _.A. is no better than othersB. is selfish and lazyC. does not draw a lesson from his own fault(错误)D. is very happy about his unpleasant quality32. The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _.A. train you to be perfect B. show you the way to be happyC. tell you how to a

38、l with liquid natural gas as the fuel for vehicles. Since people paid little attention to the environmental protection, the air quality in Tianjin has worsened during the past decade. The project has received wide praise and support from the natives.The newly-discovered “Great Wall” in south Chinas
39、Hunan Province will open to visitors in the near future. “We will try to make it an internationally famous attraction for tourists,” said Yuan Xinhua, director of the Hunan Provincial Tourism Administration(管理局). The main part of the 190-km “Southern China Great Wall” is located in Fenghuang County
