1.One day I happened to meet an Englishman in the street and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, 2.the foreigner seemed to be very surprised, gently shaking his head and saying "You don't say!" I was puzzled, and I thought, "Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about." So I said to him. "Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever been there?"

"Certainly! Everyone at home will laugh at me if I leave here without seeing it. The Great Wall is wonderful!" "Yes, 3.它是世界奇迹之一。 And people of many countries have come to visit it." As I went on more about it, he stopped me again, "You don't say!"

4.I couldn't help asking, "Why do you ask me not to talk about it?" "Well, I don't ask you to do so," he answered, greatly surprised. "Didn't you say 'You don't say'?" I asked again. Hearing this, the foreigner laughed loudly. He began to explain, " 'You don't say!' means 'Really?'. Perhaps you know little about English idioms (习语) ."

Wow! 5. 我多么笨啊！ Since then I began to learn more English idioms.

2.外国人看起来很惊奇，轻轻地摇了摇头，说道：“你别说了”！

3.It is one of the wonders in the world.

5.How foolish I was !

【解析】

1.1】一天我碰巧在街道上遇见了一个英国人，不久我们开始谈话。happen to碰巧

2.2】外国人看起来很惊奇，轻轻地摇了摇头，说道：“你别说了”！ seem to do看起来…gently shaking his head and saying "You don't say!"现在分词做伴随状语。

3.3】It is one of the wonders in the world.注意one of后面接名词复数，表示…之一。.

4.4】我忍不住询问：“为什么你让我不要谈论呢？”固定短语can’t help doing 忍不住做…

5.5】How foolish I was !感叹句：How+形容词+主语+谓语！What+名词短语+主语+谓语！；根据后面的began，此句用一般过时。

考点：记叙类阅读。
