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) .\"

In China, mung bean soup (绿豆汤) is an usual food to cool yourself in summer. But in 2010, your family might not make so much mung bean soup because of its high price.The price of the mung bean is now more than 20 yuan per kilo. That is more expensive than pork(猪肉)! Last year, mung beans cost only 6 yuan per kilo

What caused the price rise? Experts say there are several reasons.

First, there is a smaller mung bean supply in 2010. There was a drought in North-east China in 2009. It is China’s main producing area of bean. The drought stopped the beans from growing. Also, some other crops such as corn, wheat and rice sold well last year. So many farmers chose to grow those crops instead of mung beans. As a result, there are fewer beans on the market this year.

Second, there are more requirements for mung beans in the market. From January to March, our country’s crop export(出口) went up by 22 per cent from the last three months. That includes the export of mung beans. For example, 90 percent of mung beans in Japan market now come from China. And these days people are paying more and more attention to healthy eating habits, so they are eating more mung beans.

Another reason is that some sellers are buying a large number of mung beans from farmers. But they are not selling them to people. They store the mung beans. When the market is short of mung beans, the price goes up. Then people who have been storing mung beans can sell them at a higher price.

But you don’t have to worry that you cannot drink much mung bean soup to cool yourself this summer. There are other drinks that are good to drink on hot days, such as green tea, lemonade and fruit juice. And when fewer people want to buy mung beans, the price will go down at last.

( )31. The beans didn’t grow well because of the _________________ in 2009. A. cold weather B. drought C. strong wind D. heavy rain

( )32. Farmers sold the following crops at a good price last year except ________________. A. mung beans B. corn C. rice D. wheat ( )33. The underlined word ‘store’ means ‘_________________’ in Chinese. A. 商店 B. 出售 C. 供给 D. 储存

( )34. Some sellers buy a lot of mung beans but don’t sell them at the moment because

______.

A. they don’t want to sell them to Japan

B. they want more farms to grow them C. they want to sell them at a higher price D. they want to keep them for themselves

( )35. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the mung bean price rise in China?

A. Mung bean soup is the best drink in summer. B. The export of mung beans is increasing. C. Fewer farmers grew mung beans last year. D. People are eating more mung beans.
