Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
One day, while I was walking on the street, I heard the piano music and singing rising above the noise of the people. I stopped and saw a young lady sitting at a piano.
She was singing songs about love. The way she was singing made me a little comfortable. I stood there watching her playing on such a crowded New York square. I thought that she must be brave enough to perform in front of so many people.
She noticed me. I walked over and told her how good her music sounded. “Thank you.” she said.
“I have been going through a hard time recently, but you've made me hopeful again.” I said to her.
“I'm glad that I could help,” she replied, “Why are you so sad?”
“Well, my mom has lost her job, and I'm not sure what to do …”
“Did you notice the way you were walking? Your head was down.” she said. “Don't be upset, because opportunity (機遇) comes in different ways and if your head is down, you might not see it. You should smile more… lift your head up.”
I looked at her, surprised at how she was encouraging (鼓勵) me. “Why are you playing the piano here?” I asked her with a smile.
She explained that she saw a lot of unhappy people in the world and she tried to cheer them up by playing music.
I smiled a little wilder, realizing that no difficulties could stop me from going on.
