Lesson 42 Not very musical 

What happened when the snake charmer began to paly jazz?

As we had had a long walk through one of the markets of Old Delhi, we stopped at

a square to have a rest.After a time,we noticed a snake charmer with two large

baskets at the other sied of the square,so we went to have a look at him. As soon

as he saw us,he picked up a long pipe which was covered with coins and opened one

of the baskets. When he began to paly a tune, we had our first glimpse of the snake.

It rose out of the basket and began to follow the movements of the pipe. We were

very much surprised when the snake charmer suddenly began to play jazz and

modern pop songs. The snake,however,continued to 'dance' slowly. It obviously

could not tell the difference between Indian musical and jazz!

參考譯文

當(dāng)我們穿過舊德里的市場時走了很長一段路，我們在一個廣場上停下來休息。過了一會兒，我們注意到廣場的那一邊有一個帶著兩大筐的耍蛇人，于是就走過去看看。他一看見我們，就拿起了一個長長的上面鑲有硬幣的管樂器，并掀開了一個筐的蓋子。當(dāng)他開始吹奏一支曲子時，我們才第一次看到那條蛇。它從筐里探出身子，隨著樂器的擺動面扭動。當(dāng)耍蛇人突然又吹奏起爵士樂和現(xiàn)代流行樂曲時，我們感到非常驚奇。然而那蛇卻還是緩慢地“舞動”著。顯然，它分辨不出印度音樂和爵士樂!
