A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized(強(qiáng)調(diào)) the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusingexperience.
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(適當(dāng)?shù)? 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.”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.”O(jiān)nly 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.

There’s a guy like me in every state and federal prison in America，I guess—I’m the guy who can get these for you：cigarettes，a bag of cigar，if you want that，a bottle of wine to celebrate your son or daughter’s high school graduation，or almost anything else．．．within reason，that is．It wasn’t always that way．

I came to Shawshank when I was just twenty，and I am one of the few people in the prison who is willing to admit what he did．I committed murder．I put a large insurance policy on my wife，who was three years older than 1 was，and then I fixed the brakes of the car her father had given us as a wedding present．It worked out exactly as I had planned，except I hadn’t planned on her stopping to pick up the neighbour woman and the woman’s son on the way down Castle Hill and into town．The brakes let go and the car crashed through the bushes，gathering speed．Bystanders said it must have been doing fifty or better when it hit the base of the Civil War statue in the town arid burst into flames．

I also hadn’t planned on getting caught，but caught 1 was．I got a pass into this place．My state has no death penalty(死刑)，but I was tried for all three deaths and given three life sentences，to run one after the other．That fixed up any chance of parole(假釋)I might have，for a long，long time．The judge called what I had done‘a(chǎn)n extremely evil crime’, and it was ,but it is also in the past now．

Have I transformed myself，you ask ?I don’t know what that word means，at least as far as prisons and corrections go．I think it’s a politician’s word．It may have some other meaning，and it may be that 1 will have a chance to find out，but that is the future．．．

I was young，good—looking，and from the poor side of town．I met a pretty，headstrong girl who lived in one of the fine old houses on Carbine Street．She got pregnant later．Her father was agreeable to the marriage if 1 would take a job in the company he owned and ‘work my way up’．I found out that what he really had in mind was keeping me in his house and under his thumb，like a disagreeable pet that has not quite been housebroken and which may bite．Enough hate eventually piled up to cause me to do what I did．

?? Given a second chance 1 would not do it again，but I'm not sure that means I am transformed．

The days of Europeans relaxing in the cafe with a newspaper and a seemingly endless cup of coffee appear to be numbered．A new English expression is popular in Europe these days：“coffee to go．”

 “Five or ten years ago it was much more normal to sit in a cafe for several hours than it is nowadays，”says Joann，who works in a central Berlin coffee bar owned by the Canadian coffee and bakery chain Tim’s.

“There is a trend towards a more fast-paced life．But people still act surprised  when you ask if the coffee is‘to go’．You mean I can take it with me? they ask..”

“Europe is often five or eight years behind trends in America，”says Joann.“In the States.‘coffee to go’is part of everyday life.”

Owing in part to Starbucks，it appears to be very much part of everyday life in many other countries too．

The Seattle-based group compete with a growing number of global chains in attempting to reshape coffee drinking cultures in regions including Asia and the Middle East．

The US is the model for continental Europe’s new“coffee to go”culture：Each of the new cafe bars offers bagels，muffins，brownies and cookies to go with the coffee.

But then,“coffee to go’’might sound a little odd to English ears used to the words “takeaway”or take one．

It does sum up the brisker pace of life since the city resumed its status as the German capital following the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989.

As one more sign of the changing times，one of Berlin’s most venerable(古老而莊重的)coffee houses，cafe Einstein，has followed the trend by opening a small chain of coffee shops across the city．

Taking coffee,slowly and in decorous（端正的）surroundings,has been a feature of European coffee houses,particularly in German speaking countries,for decades.

For the elderly citzens of Vienna it amounts to a ritual（儀式）when they gather in coffee houses around the city for a cup of their favovrite drink and a piece of rich,creamy cake.

1.From the passage,we can see that      .

A、“coffee to go” springs in Europe these days

B、Europe is often a few years before trends in America

C、America often follows Europe’s “coffee to go”culture

D、it’s easy to reshape coffee drinking cultures in the Middle East

2.Every new cafe bar offers some        to go with the coffee

A、food     B、newspaper     C、drink     D、music

3.More and more Europeans have takeaway coffee because        .

A、Europeans live a more fast-paced life now

B、The coffee is much cheaper

C、Europeans are used to taking away the coffee

D、the coffee is easy to take away

4.The characteristic of European coffee houses is        .

A、“coffee to go ”as part of daily life

B、sitting in a cafe bar for several hours

C、having coffee slowly in a pleasant atmosphere

D、taking away coffee in a hurry

科目：高中英語 來源：專項題 題型：閱讀理解

     Last weekend, a girlfriend that I've known since college was visiting. As we left the airport, we had to
stop at the grocery for a case of diet soda. On our way to lunch she asked me "Do you think that drinking diet soda makes you fat?"
     "Depends on whom you ask," I said. Last year, researchers from the University of Texas Health
Science Center in San Antonio reported that adults who drink diet soda did not lose weight. They were
actually more likely to become overweight than those adults who did not drink soda at all or those that
drink regular soda. In fact, the more diet soda consumed, the more likely someone would become
overweight. To be specific, there was a 41% increase in the risk of being overweight for every can or
bottle of diet soda consumed daily.
     In this study, researcher Sharon Fowler followed over 600 normal weight adults ages 25-64 over a
seven to eight year period of time. She has a number of theories as to why weight gain may be a result of
drinking a zero-calorie beverage:
     1.Artificial sweeteners may affect your body’s ability to judge how many calories you consume. When no calories are consumed, the body may continue to crave(渴望) what it expected and could lead to
overeating.
     2.  Some people give up regular sodas to justify their favorite dessert and still take in too many calories. A regular soda contains about 150 calories while your dessert may be double that in calories easily.
     3. For others who were gaining weight already, switching to diet soda wasn’t enough to stop the gain.
     Since her first piece of research, Fowler has tracked another 2000 people with similar results. Do the
faux sweet products induce people to want more sweets? Fowler suggests that perhaps it’s not the soft
drinks themselves that cause weight gain but that there is some link between diet soda drinking and
overweight.
1. Why do people give up regular soda and take diet one according to Fowler's research?
A. Some want to gain weight.          
B. Some want excuses to have dessert.
C. Some mistake diet soda as no-calorie drink.
D. Diet soda can help people lose weight.
2. Which of the following statements is the result of Fowler's research?
A. Diet soda can directly cause people to gain weight.
B. Diet soda increases the risk of becoming overweight.
C. Diet soda actually contains more calories than regular soda.
D. Those who drink diet soda are 41% more likely to become fat.
3. Which can NOT explain the link between diet soda and overweight?
A. People overeat to satisfy the body’s needs for calories that diet soda lacks.
B. People also have foods containing more calories when they choose diet soda.
C.Diet soda has little effect on those who have become overweight already.
D.Diet soda is a sweetener that increases the body’s needs for calories.
4. What can we learn from the passage?  
A. Only overweight adults are involved to see if diet soda can help lose weight.  
B. The research lasted many years and over 2000 people took part in it.  
C. Diet soda has opposite effect on those who take it to lose weight.  
D. Sharon Fowler is the first to find drinking diet soda leads to overweight.
5. What does the underlined word "induce" probably mean?
A. cause        
B. reduce      
C. advise        
D. inspire
