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 b
10、egan 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, saying, “You dont say! ” “You dont say! ” I was puzzled. I thought, “Perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. Well, Id better change the topic. ”
11、 So I said 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 is magnificent. ” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide, “The Great Wall is one of th
12、e wonders in the world. We are very proud of it. ” Soon I was interrupted again by his order, “You dont say! ” I couldnt help asking. I said, “Didnt you say you dont say? ” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed. He explained, “ You dont say actually means Really? . It is an expression of surprise. Pe
13、rhaps you havent learned that English idiom. ” Only then did I realize I had made a fool of myself. Since then, I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.1A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because _.AEnglish idioms were too difficult to masterBI had no interest in English l

16、glishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.B A new study suggests that dark markings on the planet Mars represent sand not water. The research in 2015 suggested that lines on some Martian hills were evidence of water. Yet American scientists now say these lines appear more like dr
17、y, flows of sand. If water is present, it is likely to be a small amount. Water in liquid form would be necessary for microbial (微生物的) life. NASA, the American space agency, said more research is needed. Michael Meyer is the lead scientist for NASAs Mars exploration programme. He noted that the late
18、st study does not reject the presence of water. But he admitted, “It just may not be as exciting as the idea of rivers going down the sides of cliffs (悬崖). ”The new findings come from a team led by Colin Dundas of the United States Geological Survey. His team measured 151 of these lines in 10 areas.
19、 Most of the lines end with slopes between 28 degrees and 35 degrees. These measurements are similar to active sand dunes (沙丘) on both Mars and Earth. A small covering of dust that moves and sometimes becomes lighter might help explain the markings. They usually appear in the Martian summertime, and
20、 then disappear until the next year. If these lines are dry, this suggests that recent Mars has not had large volumes of liquid water. Dundas and his research team say that many questions remain. “I still think that Mars has a great potential for having had life early on in its history, ” Meyer said
21、. “As long as thats true, we also have a reasonable possibility of life still being on Mars. It just happens to be cryptic or well hidden. ”NASA currently has no robotic vehicle either on Mars or in development with the ability to climb steep slopes. The lack of such equipment has engineers coming u
