Ⅳ.（2023·泰州三模）阅读理解
逐题讲解 Have you ever heard an English idiom, understood every word used in it, but still been confused about what it means? Don't worry. Native（本土的）speakers experience this too. And there's a good reason for it：Idioms get their meanings from how they are used. Here are some of the strangest English idioms.
If someone tells you that something really “gets their goat（山羊）”, it doesn't mean that a farm animal has been stolen! Instead, it means that something really annoys them and they may be very unhappy. While it's not certain, some people believe this phrase comes from a horse racing tradition in which people would keep goats with horses before a race to keep them calm. So if their goats are taken away, their horses may get nervous. What will they think of it?
Another strange animal donkey's（驴的）phrase is “donkey's years”, used in British English to describe a very long time. This expression may come from a joke about the ears of a donkey, which are quite long. “Donkey's ears” was changed to “donkey's years” for talking about time.
Here comes the phrase “talk turkey”. An Indian and a white person went hunting together and a wild turkey and a crow were all the results that day. The white person made a decision and said in the usual style of making a bargain（讨价还价）with the Indian：“Now, you may have your choice：you take the crow, and I'll take the turkey；or, if you'd rather, I'll take the crow and you take the turkey.” The Indian knew that the white person wanted to take the turkey but he wanted to show that he was generous. So the Indian said, “You want the turkey, so you can take the turkey. Why not talk turkey to me a bit?” So “talk turkey” means “talk straightly”.
1. What does the writer advise us to do if we hear a strange idiom?
A. To ask a native speaker.
B. To guess them creatively.
C. To know how they are used.
D. To understand every word.
2. The underlined phrase “annoys them” in Paragraph 2 means “________”.
A. helps them win the race
B. makes them very angry
C. makes them very happy
D. calms them down

A. He has lived a happy life for years.
B. He has lived a hard life for years.
C. He has been like a donkey for years.
D. He has lived here for a long time.
4. According to the last paragraph, the white person wanted ________.
A. either the turkey or the crow
B. both the turkey and the crow
C. the turkey better than the crow
D. neither the turkey nor the crow
