Do you feel depressed(沮丧的)? Probably. But if you are in France, someone may play the piano for you. It might be a performance of Chopins Fantaisie-Impromptu or the Pirates of the Caribbean theme song. To our surprise, it is not performed by a paid musician or a street entertainer asking for coins. Instead, a passer-by jams (即兴演奏) on the piano in the station.The national railroad company SNCF has put pianos in nearly 100 stations across France. They are rented from Yamaha Corporation. The first piano was set up in the Gare Montparnasse in Paris in 2012.The pianos have proved to be very popular. In 2014, the SNCF and Yamaha organized a nationwide contest called Your Turn to Play. It asked participants to upload (上传) video clips of themselves using one of the pianos. At last, about 900 people took part in the contest.So if you miss a train in France one day, perhaps someone will be playing your favourite piece, and that will reduce your anxiety (焦虑) a bit. Or perhaps youll sit down, roll up your sleeves and play your sadness away yourself.(1)If you miss a train in France, who may play the piano for you? (2)When was the first piano set up in the Gare Montparnasse in Paris? (3)What was the name of the contest organized by the SNCF and Yamaha in 2014? (4)Why has the company SNCF put pianos in nearly 100 stations across France? (5)If possible, would you like to jam on the piano in such stations? Why or why not? 六、 书面表达 (共1题;共5分)8.
