A Diary for My Yunduo'er ?
Day 1586, Apr 17, 2022 (Sun)
(节选)
After a hiatus of 3 months and a half, we took you back to that bite-sized music school in our Xiaoqu, where you had already had only one try-out piano lesson. Xiaoliu, a 25-year old girl studying at China Conservatory, met us at 1:30pm. She would be your second piano teacher in your lifetime. The small music school arranged her for you because mummy had called the supervisor in advance saying the teacher last time was too young.
停了三个半月，我们又把你带到了小区里的小小音乐学校，在下午1点半见到了中国音乐学院的25岁女孩小刘，她将是你这辈子第二个钢琴老师。学校安排她是因为妈妈提前给管事的打电话，说上次那个老师年龄太小了。
A far cry from your former teacher, Xiaoliu bombarded you with all the necessary music terms – treble clef, bass clef, 4 beats and stave -pointing at a Thompson's Easiest Piano Course. Sitting right behind you, we were a bundle of nerves because all that terminology could be utterly out of your depth, but unexpectedly, you were not as much a fidget as you were last time. And under the teacher's watchful eye, you got out 4 Do semibreves in four bars on the keyboard with your right hand first and then your left hand, with the teacher counting to 4 for a single note in each bar.
小刘老师跟上次那个老师不同，她一边指着汤普森简易钢琴教程，一边连珠炮似地说着各种音乐专业术语，比如高音谱号，低音谱号，4拍、五线谱。我们就坐在你身后，特别紧张，就怕你根本接受不了这些。可没想到你竟然没像上次那样坐不住动来动去。在老师的监督下，你分别用左右手弹出了四个小节里的总共四个全音符。每个音节里只有一个音符，老师在旁边每个音节都数了四下。
Only towards the end of the 45-minute try-out did the teacher, like the girl last time, bring up associations with animals: "Yunduo'er, don't the high pitch keys sound like chirping birds, while the low pitch keys lumbering elephants!"
45分钟的试课快结束时，小刘老师才像上次那个老师那样把键盘跟动物联系了起来：“云朵儿，高音的像不像小鸟叫呀，低音的像不像大象在吭哧吭哧费劲地走路呢！”
部分趣味表达和俚语:
a far cry from 有很大区别
a bundle of nerves 紧张
out of one's depth 无法应付
fidget 坐立不安的人
under sb's watchful eye 在某人的监督下
chirp 鸟叫
lumber 迈着沉重的步伐走
