课文原文

**Lesson 42: Not very musical 并非很懂音乐**

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 side 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 play 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. When the snake-charmer suddenly began to play jazz tunes and modern pop songs, we were very surprised. However, the snake continued to “dance” slowly. It obviously could not tell the difference between Indian music and jazz!

**参考译文:** 当我们在旧德里的一个市场走了很长一段路后,我们在一个广场停下来休息。过了一会儿,我们注意到广场另一边有一个带着两个大篮子的耍蛇人,于是我们走过去看他。他一看到我们就拿起一根盖满硬币的长管子,打开了一个篮子。当他开始演奏曲子时,我们第一次看到了蛇。它从篮子里升起,开始跟随管子的移动。当耍蛇人突然开始演奏爵士乐和现代流行歌曲时,我们非常惊讶。然而,蛇继续慢慢地"跳舞"。它显然无法分辨印度音乐和爵士乐的区别!
