But soon, the importance of English idio

14、ms was showed 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, saying, “You dont say! You dont say!”

15、 I was puzzled, I thought, perhaps this is not a proper topic. Well, I had 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, everybody back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnifice

16、nt(壮丽的）.” 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 order “You dont say!” I couldnt help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it”.“Well, I didnt request

17、you to do so,” He answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didnt you say you dont say?” Hearing this, the Englishman 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

18、 made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idioms. 31. A year ago, I did not pay attention to English idioms because_.A. English idioms were too difficult to master B. I cared little about the teachers instructionC. My teacher didnt emphasize the importanceD. I had no interest

19、in English learning32. When I first heard “ You dont say!” I thought _.A. the Englishman was not interested in the topicB. the Englishman was only interested in the Great WallC. I had talked too much D. I had to stop talking at once33. Which of the following is true_A.The Englishman left China witho

20、ut seeing the Great WallB.The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it C.The Englishman wanted me to act as his guideD. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it was worth visiting34. After the Englishman explained the idiom, _.A. I thought the Englishman had made m

21、e a fool. B. the Englishman became a real foolC. I felt very silly D. I became more careful in everythingBChildren start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; theres no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipmen

22、t. You only have to share your childrens curiosity. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facin

23、g one another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that were finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?” After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?” This began a set o

24、f questions that lasted nearly two hours. Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or

25、more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers. Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, dont jump in with “Thats right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick

26、 praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “Thats interesting” or “Id never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas. Never push a child to “Think”. It doesnt make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to

27、. Whats more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement. Lastly, show; dont tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson

28、children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and theyll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level dr

29、op.35. According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is _.A. to let them see the world around B. to share the childrens curiosityC. to explain difficult phrases about science D. to supply the children with lab equipm

According to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults _.

31、A. ask them to answer quicklyB. wait for one or two seconds after a questionC. tell them to answer the next dayD. wait at least for three seconds after a question38.
