三、 阅读理解 (共2题；共16分)
12. （8分）根据短文理解，选择正确答案。 第 4 页 共 12 页 A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms( 习语 ), though my teacher emphasized(强调) 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!” “You don't say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this
is not an appropriate(合适的) topic. “Well, I'd better change the topic.” 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 was magnificent(宏伟的).” He was deep in
thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the 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 to 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 Englishman 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.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself.
Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions(习语表达). Remember -- what the English
teachers said is always right to us students.
（1）The underlined word “amusing” in the first paragraph probably means______.
A . interesting
B . important
C . terrible
D . unlucky
（2）At first, on hearing “You don't say!” I thought the foreigner meant _______.
A . he was not interested in the topic
B . he was only interested in the Great Wall
C . I had talked too much
D . I had to stop talking
（3）Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A . The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.
B . The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.
C . The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.
D . The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.
（4）After the Englishman explained the idiom, _______.
