When you speak， write a letter or make a telephone call， your words carry a message. Do you think you can communicate without words？ A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class， the teacher knows that you want to say something or ask a question. You shake or nod your head， and people know your meaning.

Other things can also carry messages. For example， the road sign “P” helps people know where to park their car. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on the door tell you which to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time？

People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawing to tell about beautiful mountains， about blue sea and so on. Books are written to tell about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas.

Books， magazines， TV， radio and films all help us communicate with others. They all help us know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.

A year ago， I paid no attention to English idioms， though my teacher stressed the importance again and again. But soon， the importance of English idioms was shown in a funny experience.

One day， I met 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， saying， “You dont say！” “You dont say！” I was puzzled. I thought， perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “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 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 order， “You dont say！” I couldnt help asking. 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 realize I had made a fool of myself. Since then， I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.

I was blind， but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all， I was a teenage girl， and I couldnt bear people looking at me and think I was not like them. However， there were all sorts of disasters that occured on my way to and from work.

One evening， I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses， and as usual I ran into something. “Im awfully sorry，” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time， I realized I had been apologizing to a lamp post. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop， which was a request stop， where the bus wouldnt stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.

Generally in this situation， because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help， I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end， I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.

But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass， or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself， I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

B. was caught by something

C. hit a lamp post by accident

D. began to run to the bus stop

A. It took too much time.

B. Buses wouldnt stop for her.

C. Her judgment may be unreliable.

D. She met more lorries than buses.

7. What did the girl hope to find by walking to the next stop？

A. Find more buses there.

B. Find someone else there.

C. Find the bus by herself there.

D. Find people more helpful there.
