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, 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, it is one of the wonders in the world. 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!"
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! How foolish I was ! Since then I began to learn more English idioms.

In the United States, headmasters and teachers discipline (惩罚) students in several ways. The teacher often writes to or calls the students' parents. Sometimes students have to stay at school for one hour. If a student behaves very badly, the headmaster can stop the student having classes. The student can't come to school for one, two or three days. Mr. Lazarus, the headmaster of a middle school in Ohio, did not like to do so. When he didn't let the students come to school, they were happy. "A three-day holiday!" they thought.
One day, a boy was in Mr. Lazarus' office. The boy was not behaving well in class. Mr. Lazarus telephoned the boy's parents. "If you come to school with your son, I won't stop him having classes,"he said. The boy's father came to school and went with his son to every class. Other students looked at the boy and his father. The boy was embarrassed. After that he behaved better. And, of course, other students behaved better, too.
Now headmasters all over the USA are trying Mr. Lazarus's idea. They too, think that students behave better when parents come to school.
