The Piano Lesson

Jenny wasn’t interested in playing the piano. She liked writing stories and acting them out with her friends. But Mrs. Windsor gave her piano lessons for free, so she felt she should have a try. Every Sunday she had her piano lessons in Mrs. Windsor’s house.

One Sunday morning, Jenny walked into Mrs. Windsor’s music room and sat down on the piano bench(長凳) as usual.

“Hello,” Jenny heard a voice behind her. She turned around and saw a young girl.

“What’s your name?” The girl asked.

Before Jenny could answer, Mrs. Windsor walked in and said, “Jenny, this is my niece(侄女), Pasha. Pasha, this is Jenny. I need to go to hospital, so Pasha will give you your lesson today.”

Pasha sat beside Jenny on the piano bench and asked, “What piece do you like best?”

“I don’t know.” Jenny said. “They’re all the same to me.”

“You mean you don’t have a favorite?” Pasha was surprised.

“No, not really.” Jenny said.

Pasha opened Jenny’s music book and asked Jenny to play.

After about a page or two, Pasha gently(輕輕地) put her hand on top of Jenny’s. Jenny stopped. Then Pasha said, “Jenny, what are you hearing in the music?” Jenny looked at Pasha strangely.

“I don’t know.” Jenny said.

“Let me try and you listen,” Pasha said. “All you have to do is learn to hear the stories in the music.”

“I’ve never thought of it that way.” Jenny said.

“Let’s try together, shall we?” Pasha smiled. Together they played that afternoon and tried to find the story in the music. That day Jenny found playing the piano was not that difficult.

閱讀理解。

Traditionally, business people would get to know each other over a round of golf. But road cycling is fast catching up as the preferred way of networking recently.

“When you play golf with somebody you have to decide if you‟re going to beat them, or let them beat you,” says Peter Murray, a chairman of the NLA centre. “If they‟re your customers and you don‟t want to beat them, sometimes you might have to make some kind of cheating in order to lose. That seems to me not a good way of doing things.”

Group cycling, and especially long-distance riding, is a shared experience, Mr Murray says. Riders often work together and help each other out, taking turns to be at the front so that the riders in their group can save almost a third of the effort needed to travel at the same speed.

How someone rides a bike can give you a real insight into what a person is like, says Jean-Jacques Lorraine, founding director of Morrow Lorraine, a team member of Cycle to Cannes. “Some riders are very single-minded, others more collaborative; some are skillful, others an open book.” “If I walk into a meeting and somebody says „I‟ve done Cycle to Cannes‟ , it‟s a done deal really,” says Mr Lorraine.

Mr Mottram, CEO of Rapha, believes it is easier to get to know people by cycling than in other situations. “T here is an easy environment about conversations on a bike.” Mr Lorraine makes the point more directly: “I feel open and honest to others. I often find I‟m saying things on a bike which I wouldn‟t normally say, and equally I‟ve been confided (吐露秘密) in when I wasn‟t expecting it.”

Why do cycle rides lend riders so well to networking? “Getting a quick lunch or drink after work doesn‟t give you long enough to get to know someone,” Mr. Murray says. He believes long rides get people together. “A younger rider can be cycling along with a boss and help him in some way and you get a reversal of the relationship. This changes the relationship when they are off the ride too.”

Perhaps the main reason why cycling is a good way to network is that it‟s a passion (激情) and a way of life. “Getting out on the bike is what we‟re all dreaming of doing while we‟re sitting at our computers,” says Mr Mottram. And a shared passion is a fantastic way to start any relationship.

1.We can infer from Paragraph 2 that ______.

A.golf is a sport full of cheating

B.cycling is less popular than golf

C.deciding on winners in golf is hard

D.golf might also have disadvantages

2.In Paragraph 4, Mr Lorraine thinks that ______.

A.getting a quick lunch after work helps get people together

B.telling what a person is really like by cycling is a way of life

C.riders need to volunteer to be at the front to save their energy

D.it‟s much easier for people to make a deal if they are all riders

3.Which of the following is TRUE about cycling?

A.Businessmen used to prefer cycling to golf.

B.Cycling is a good way to get to know people.

C.Group cycling is always a long-distance riding.

D.It‟s not acceptable for the riders to talk on the bike.

4.What could be the best title of the passage?

A.Advantages and Disadvantages of Cycling.

B.Two Good Ways of Networking.

C.Cycling Is the New Golf.

D.Cycling Develops Fast.
