Most people like having a picnic. But what does the word mean? Where does it come from? What is a picnic?

     For most people a picnic is a meal they eat outside the home, usually in a park, by a river, or even sitting in a car if the weather is cold and wet. At one time, however, (66)people had picnics at home at their own dinner tables.

     The word picnic comes from the French words piquer which means “to pick” or “take” and pique-nipue which means “a small coin”. (67)Everyone who came to a picnic brought something to eat. They took or picked small pieces of food from each plate. They had a pique-nique. This kind of meal was popular in Britain, The British used the French words for it but changed the letters to make “picnic”. This is the way we write it today.

    (68)In some countries there are big picnics on special days. Lots of people go to parks on these picnics. For most people, however, a picnic is a family party. The family puts some food and drink in a basket, gets in the car and goes off to a nice place in the country or by the sea.

The nine-year-old Marc Yu is called Little Mozart. He is too short to reach the pedals (踏板) of a piano. Marc, from California, USA, says, “The problem is that my legs aren’t straight enough, so I have to get very close to the piano.”
Marc’s 34-year-old mother played Beethoven’s CDs to him when she was pregnant . Marc started playing the piano at a birthday party when he was only two. While the other children were singing “twinkle, twinkle, little star …”, he walked over to the piano and started playing the song. It astonished his mother, because that was the first time he’d been near a piano. Marc gave his first public performance, playing Beethoven, at six, the same age as Mozart. After that concert, Marc won a ￡225,000 university scholarship.
At present he practices the piano eight hours a day. He also studies part-time at the famous Colbum Music School in Los Angeles, and flies once a month to China for lessons at Shanghai Music School. Marc says, “I like playing the piano because it makes me have a lot of different feelings —sadness, excitement, happiness and so on. I like playing difficult pieces, especially those that my teacher says I shouldn’t.”
