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 confused, and I thought, “Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about.” Then I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever visited it?”
“Certainly! Everyone back 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 telling him more about it, he stopped me again, “You don't say!”
I couldn't help asking, “Why couldn't I talk about it?”
“Well, I didn't stop you talking about it,” 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(习惯用语).”
Wow! How foolish I was! Since then I have been careful with English idioms.

    One terribly cold day, a snowstorm hit our area. Needing firewood, I quickly set out with my best friend, Bruce, to look for a tree to cut down. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. ① So to have a friend who could warn me of dangerso was important.
    When I chose a big 23-meter-tall tree and prepared to cut it down, Bruce suddenly warned me, “Don't cut down that tree! It's too close to the power line!” I wasn't sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I couldn't wait to finish the job and go back home. I began cutting down the tree.② When the tree fell, there was no longer any doubt whether my friend was right.
    The tree caught the power line, bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all, electricity can't travel through wood. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree, pain ran up my arm and through my head. I had been shocked!
    After I returned home and told my mother what happened, she quickly called the power company. Workers from the power company soon arrived. One of them asked if I had touched the tree, and when I told him I had, his face turned pale. “You should have been killed,” he said. It was my boots that saved my life.
    ③Within two hours, the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down——but not my mother. Even though she was glad that I wasn't hurt, my mother was still serious with me. After all（毕竟）, I shouldn't have brushed off my friend's warning.

Shaking the head doesn't always mean the same in different countries. Maybe some visitors would be surprised when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian, they would find he would often shake his head. The visitors might think that the Indian doesn't like what they say. But in fact, they would be completely wrong. Indians always shake their heads when they talk to others. It doesn't mean "No". If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or he will be in trouble.

One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and asked an Indian to drive him. When he told his driver to take him to his office, the Indian shook his head at once. The officer said again and the driver shook his head again. At last the officer, of course, got angry.

"How dare you refuse my order?" he shouted. "Drive me to my office at once!"

The driver answered in quite a loud voice too, "Yes, sir!" But to the officer's surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time.

The car started and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while, and then he nodded with a smile, "'No' means 'Yes' here!"

Gary Oldman is like the English version of Leonardo DiCaprio. They are both actors who are "underappreciated (未受到充分赏识的)", as GQ magazine said. DiCaprio didn't win his first Oscar until 2016 at the age of 42. In 2018, Oldman finally got his first Oscar at the age of 59 on March 5.

He took home the Best Actor award at the 90th Academy Awards. He won the award for his performance as former British prime minister Winston Churchill in the movie Darkest Hour. Many believe that Oldman accurately reproduced Churchill's appearance and personality, such as his round body, large jowls and cigars (雪茄). Reporter Brian Truitt wrote in USA Today that after watching the movie for just 10 minutes, you forget that you're seeing Gary Oldman—there is just Winston Churchill.

Oldman was already seen as an excellent actor even before winning his Oscar. In a 2015 survey, he was voted Greatest Actor to Never Win an Oscar, according to Ranker.com. He is known for his versatility (可塑性). His acting style is expressive due to his theater training. He has played many classic roles: the vampire (吸血鬼) Count Dracula in Dracula (《惊情四百年》), the corrupt (腐败的) policeman Norman Stansfield in Leon (《这个杀手不太冷》), and Harry Potter's noble godfather (教父) Sirius Black.

Oldman said he acts not in order to win awards, but simply for the pleasure of acting. "Acting was my way out," Oldman told Interview magazine. "The fun of it was getting away from myself and stepping into the characteristics and the behavior of someone else."
