--- first listen and then answer the question.[00:00:08]
--- what happened when the sake charmer began to play jazz?[00:00:14]
as we had had a long walk through one of the markets of old delhi, we stopped at a square to have a rest.[00:00:22]
after a time, we noticed a snake charmer with two large baskets at the other side of the square, so we went to have a look at him.[00:00:32]
as soon as he saw us, he picked up a long pipe which was covered with coins and opened one of the baskets.[00:00:44]
when he began to play a tune, we had our first glimpse of the snake.[00:00:55]
it rose out of the basket and began to follow the movements of the pipe.[00:01:02]
we were very much surprised when the snake charmer suddenly began to play jazz and modern pop songs.[00:01:09]
the snake, however, continued to 'dance' slowly.[00:01:20]
it obviously could not tell the difference between indian music and jazz![00:01:25]
