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 dont say!” “You dont say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic(适当的话题). “Well, Id 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.” 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 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 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.

For most people, carnival means large parties and feasting(盛宴). But in Venice, it also means traditional masks and clothes. These costumes were first meant to hide personal identities. Then, different social classes could mix in a sea of happiness. Along the waterways, people greeted each other with: “Good morning Mrs.Mask!” Today, people in Venice still dress up in the strangest of ways - as armed soldiers, butchers and fishermen, for example. Bars and cafes are filled with party-goers who e to show off their beautiful clothes. Their designs and creations are made by special studios. Ready-made costumes are not acceptable. “In the months before the carnival we work overtime to meet the demand,” said a mask-maker. “Many kilometres of silk and lace(花边) are made into costumes. For shopkeepers, carnival is the best time of year.” The Venice carnival dates back to the Middle Ages. At that time, the city was one of the wealthiest in Europe. The tradition of celebrating with masks and costumes is thought to have been started by the “Stocking panies”. These were groups of young men who organized parties and festivals and wore colourful stockings to distinguish(区分) themselves. By the 18th century, the carnival had reached its top. It all came to an end when Napoleon controlled Venice in 1797. But in 1979, local people brought the old traditions back to life. Now the Venice carnival attracts huge crowds from all over the world. This year, about 700, 000 people are taking part. Hotels were fully booked months in advance, and bars and restaurants overflow every day.
