The Gifted of music

音乐礼物

Jen had a best friend whom she loved dearly. They saw each other or talked on the phone everyday. Christmas was coming up and Jen wanted to do something special for her friend. She knew her friend liked the classical song Pachabel's Canon and she knew her friend loved the violin. Jen knew what to give her best friend.

珍有个最要好的朋友，她们每天都会见面或者打电话聊天。圣诞节快到了，珍想为她的朋友做点特别的事。她知道她的朋友很喜欢古典乐曲帕海贝尔的卡农，她也知道朋友喜欢小提琴，珍想到要送最好的朋友什么礼物。

She walked down the hallway and went to her parent's closet. There she took out an old violin no one played. Jen looked in the pile of CD's her family owned and found Pachabel's Canon. She played the song loud. Copying what she heard squeaked¹ out some sounds on the dusty violin.

她走进房间，在父母的衣柜里，找到一把没人拉的小提琴，并在全家人的CD堆中，找到帕海贝尔的卡农CD。她大声播放音乐，听到什么，就跟着用那把占满灰尘的小提琴嘎吱嘎吱地拉出声音。

Four weeks later, it was time to give her friend her present.She sat her friend down, took a deep breath and began to play. The song was a little sharp on the ear at times, but her friend hardly remembered that. Instead, her friend remembered the tremendous² love she had for Jen the day she played Pachebel's Canon on the violin for her.

四个星期后，送礼物的时刻到了。她请朋友坐下，深吸口气，然后便开始演奏。有时候曲子听起来有点刺耳，可是她的朋友几乎忘了这件事，她只记得珍为她拉小提琴演奏帕海贝尔的卡农那天，她好爱好爱她。
