You run among crowded people in a railway sta...

You run among crowded people in a railway station, only to find that the train has left. 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 Chopin's 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 you'll sit down, roll up your sleeves and play your sadness away yourself.

回答下面 5 个问题。( 56--58 小题回答不超过 7 个单词。)

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?

They usually get together in a place, do some simple actions, and then quickly disappear.

Flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things. For example, in 2009, Michael Jackson’s fans took part in a flash mob to remember him. Hundreds of his fans organized through Internet and got together outside the railway station in Liverpool. They were singing and dancing Michael’s famous song “Beat It” together.

If you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you don't need to feel surprised. They are a flash mob（快闪族）. A flash mob, organized with the help of the Internet or other communications networks, is a group of people who come together suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a period of time, such as coming together to look at the sky, shouting something at the top of their voices for 30 seconds, and then quickly disappear before the police can arrive.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been replaced for any reason. Bill Wasik, a senior editor, organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May,2003 and the first successful flash mob came together on June 3,2003—after the first try was foiled at Macy's department store. Following this, about 200 people crowded into the hall of the Hyatt hotel, applauding(鼓掌）in one voice for fifteen seconds, and next the mob pretending（假装）to be tourists on a bus trip entered a shoe shop in Soho. Wasik said that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to make fun of hipsters(时尚潮人）.

Though flash mobs were firstly regarded as pointless, the idea has already developed for the benefit of political（政治的）and social events. Flash mobbing takes advantage of the effect of communicating information on Websites and by email, and protesters(抗议者）can similarly use it to be involved in political events.

Flash mob gatherings can sometimes surprise people. Such an activity might seem amusing and fantastic, but it also might frighten people who are not clear about what is taking place. Undoubtedly, flash mobs can serve as good political tools in any direction. They also have big economic potential（经济潜力）, such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.

The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things.

Flash mobs give people an opportunity to come together to create a memory.

1.The word "foiled" in Paragraph 2 probably means "__________".

A.praised B.prevented C.confused D.succeeded

2.Why did Bill Wasik create the flash mob?

A.To help people make friends. B.To advertise some products.

C.To create some memories. D.To make fun of hipsters.

3.What can we infer about the flash mob from the passage?

A.It can be made use of in many fields just for fun.

B.It usually breaks up quickly for not having enough time.

C.If the place for the activity is decided, it can't be changed.

D.It gives people the chance to do something unusual together.
