A

Yesterday morning I was in a extremely bad mood(心情). I had a quarrel with my wife and my son didn’t get up on time for school again. However, it was not because of these but because of the following fact that I was angry. We had been out of milk for a while and I could only find three dollars to get a small carton of it (which would last only a day or two).

    After eating some bread, I was on the bus to work when I saw a little “Donate a Ride” envelope up front. I read that some of those donations would go to women at abuse shelters(避难所) so that they could get to doctors’ appointments and court dates, etc. I thought I could donate the three dollars in my pocket I had. However, I needed to drink some milk before work, so I changed my decision. I decided to keep the three dollars to buy some milk.

    Well, since I made that decision, I continued to feel bad and regretted my decision. When I was getting off the bus at the bus stop and was ready to make the short walk to work, I changed my mind again. I decided I could go another week without milk and I would donate that three dollars to “Donate a Ride”.

    After I finished making that decision, I felt a lot better having done so. That was better than drinking milk in the morning. It is worth doing something when you can because it will make you happy.

A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, 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, and shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don’t say!” “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought perhaps this was not an appropriate topic(适当的话题). “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 is 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 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. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.
