第三节 完形填空 30分

English idioms though my teacher emphasized(强调)the
importance again and again. But soon the importance of English idioms was 41 by an amusing 42 .
One day, I 43 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 understanding, gently shaking his head, shrugging (耸肩)his shoulders, saying, "You
