Chapter 4 The Music How can I play music without leader?
2
Music was my life.
3
Now it is my death.
4
The sound of one note on the piano goes through me like a knife.
5
Oh, why did I swim to land?
6
Why didn't the sea take me down, down, down, to sleep the long sleep?
7
The next morning, Avril took her patient into the sitting room.
8
He sat at the piano, but he did not touch the keys.
9
His face was closed.
10
His eyes saw nothing.
11
You're a long way away, Mr. Piano Man, Avril said to him smiling.
12
Where are you now?
13
Are you thinking about your home, about your family?
14
No answer.
15
Avril took some photographs out of her bag.
16
Would you like to see some photos of my family, Mr. Piano Man?
17
She said.
18
Look, here's my husband, Jerry.
19
I told you about him yesterday.
20
And this is my son, Ryan.
21
He's 16 now.
22
He's a big boy, taller than me.
23
He loves playing football.
24
And this is my daughter, Mary.
25
She's 14.
26
She loves music.
27
She listens to it all the time.
28
One by one, she gave the photos to the piano man.
29
He looked at them, and then gave them back to her.
30
Oh, here is one to show you.
31
This is Mary when she was little.
32
About eight, I think.
33
She's having a piano lesson.
34
But she stopped lessons after two years. So sad.
35
I love listening to piano music.
36
The piano man held the photo of Mary and looked at it for a long minute.
37
His face did not change, but suddenly he put the photo down,
38
turned round to the piano, and began to play.
39
It was a happy piece of music, light and easy.
40
Avril laughed.
41
Oh, how wonderful.
42
I know that.
43
My Mary played that piece.
44
Well, she didn't really play it, but she tried to learn it.
45
You play it so well.
46
The piano man stopped playing.
47
Avril watched him.
48
Can you play some more music for us? she asked.
49
She looked round the sitting room.
50
There was another patient, sitting at the back of the room.
51
This was Doris, a very old lady.
52
Sometimes Doris remembered things, sometimes she didn't.
53
I think Doris is enjoying your music, Avril said.
54
The piano man looked round.
55
Doris nodded and smiled at him.
56
The piano man turned back to the piano and began to play.
57
This was a very different piece of music, fast and exciting, full of color and life.
58
The piano man's eyes were closed.
59
His body moved to the music, and his fingers danced over the keys.
60
Avril watched his hands.
61
You're a musician, aren't you?
62
She said.
63
A pianist.
64
All that day, the piano man was in and out of the sitting room.
65
Sometimes he just sat at the piano.
66
Sometimes he played fast, exciting music, slow, sad music.
67
Then he went back to his room and lay on his bed, with his hands over his head.
68
Then back to the piano again.
69
dr. Sansom came to listen to him you're right Avril he
70
said he's a wonderful musician the music is talking through him there's a change coming leave him alone and wait
71
late in the afternoon the piano man went to the piano again and began to play a new piece of music
72
It was slow, very beautiful music, like a song.
73
Avril sat with him for a time, then stood up.
74
Don't stop, she whispered.
75
I must see another patient for a few minutes, back soon.
76
She went quietly out of the room.
77
Doris was still in her usual chair at the back of the room, smiling and nodding to the music.
78
Avril was with the other patient for ten minutes, then went back to the sitting room.
79
She heard Doris's voice.
80
Nurse?
81
Nurse?
82
Come quick!
83
What is it, Doris?
84
What's the matter?
85
Look, said Doris.
86
He's crying, poor boy.
87
The piano man sat at the piano, with his face in his hands.
88
Tears ran between his fingers and down the backs of his hands.
89
Poor boy, said Doris.
90
Poor boy.
91
Poor boy.
92
Yes, all right, Doris, Avril said.
93
I'm here now.
94
She put her hand very gently on the piano man's arm.
95
He wants a cup of tea, said Doris loudly.
96
Poor boy.
97
Yes, you're right, Avril said.
98
She went quickly to the nurse's kitchen and came back with a large, hot mug of tea.
99
Gently, she took the piano man's hands away from his face and gave him the mug of tea.
100
There, she said, drink some tea.
101
Tea always helps.
102
The piano man's hands closed around the hot mug.
103
He looked up into Avril's face.
104
Spasiba, he whispered.
105
Before she went home, Avril went to the computer in the nurse's room.
106
Now, what was that word?
107
She thought.
108
Spas something.
109
Spasi.
110
She tried the spelling, spas-see-ba, and Google found the word for her at once.
111
Spas-eba was thank you in Russian.
112
Thank you.
113
Thank you.

Was du lernst

Dieser Clip hilft dir, zwei zentrale Sprechfertigkeiten zu verbessern: Zum einen die Fähigkeit, emotionale Nuancen in der Sprache zu erkennen und nachzuahmen – wie die Traurigkeit des Klavierspielers oder die warmherzige Stimme Avrils. Zum anderen übst du das Zuhören und Reagieren auf offene Fragen, da Avrils Gesprächsführung viele Einladungen zur Kommunikation enthält, die du in deinen eigenen Sätzen nachbauen kannst. Beide Fähigkeiten sind essenziell für natürliche Gespräche im Englischen.

Horch auf diese Klänge

Achte auf verbundene Sprache und Reduktionen im Dialog. Zum Beispiel: "He's 16 now" wird oft zu /hiːz ˈsɪksˈtiːn naʊ/ gesprochen, wobei "is" zu einem schwach gesprochenen /z/ wird. Oder "I told you about him yesterday" – hier fließt "told you" zu /toʊld juː/ zusammen, und "about him" wird zu /əˈbaʊt ɪm/ reduziert. Diese Verbindungen machen die Sprache flüssiger und natürlicher – übe, sie zu hören und zu verwenden.

Spreche wie ein Native

Um den Rhythmus und die Betonung der Sprecher zu kopieren, nutze die Technik des Shadowing (auch "shadow speech" oder "shadow speak" genannt). Höre einen Satz von Avril oder dem Klavierspieler auf, stoppe die Aufnahme und wiederhole ihn sofort, so nah wie möglich an der Originaltonhöhe, -geschwindigkeit und -betonung. Achte darauf, dass Avril Wörter wie "wonderful" oder "happy" betont, um Emotionen zu transportieren – du solltest das genauso tun. Übe täglich 5–10 Minuten, um deine englische Aussprache zu verbessern und einen natürlichen Fluss zu entwickeln. Mit der Zeit wirst du merken, dass du die Rhythmusmuster intuitiv anwendest.

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

StrukturIm Video
Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tutwas closed · were closed
Verb + -ing enjoy, keep, stop … + -ing – Verben, auf die die -ing-Form folgtloves playing · love listening · stopped playing
Present Continuous am/is/are + -ing – etwas, das gerade jetzt oder zurzeit passiertis enjoying · is talking

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
