I'll be a photographer. I'm going to bring bits of Australia back home with me. I told myself this before, yet I feel so doubtful on this plane that's flying me thousands of miles away. I was so confident yesterday .But today I don't belong to this plane where men sit with briefcases reading newspapers. They're all adults.

I've never been out of the US. And now ,I'm traveling into Australia alone, a world I know nothing about. A part of me recognizes it as home.

I remember little about my mother, but I remember she had an Australian accent and golden hair. She wan fun and she would often take us to New Jersey beaches, where we would spend the whole day taking walks along the shore. My mom told me that in Australia, Christmas was always spent on the beach with friends and family, and everyone wore Santa hat with their bathing suits. It never got cold and bitter there. My mom was different and I was proud of her.

I don't know how she met my father. but after they met several years, they got married and moved into an apartment in New Jersey. Then I was born and we were a perfect family of three who went out to dinner and watched movies in the dark and loved each other.

I know things have been hard on my father since my Mom died years ago. It's hard for me, too, and I have to experience the wonderful place my mom grew up in and loved. My mom talked about Australia so much and now I have to see this place.

Explosive sound and energy

  ROCK music didn’t exist 60 years ago.  1   Someone didn’t just wake up and invent rock.So, how did it happen? What is rock?Although impossible to strictly define, it’s generally recognized that rock music was born in 1950s America.  2   At this time, early “rockers”were mixing the country music of white America with the rhythm and blues sound loved by the black US citizens.The result was rock‘n’ roll.The record most commonly considered as the beginning of the rock ‘n’ roll period is Bill Haley & The Comets’1954 recording of “Rock Around the Clock”.  3   Elvis’s 1950s recordings established the basic language of rock ‘n’ roll; his explosive stage presence set standards for the music’s visual image, while his voice was powerful and interesting.

    4   Despite the different directions and sound of rock bands over the last 50 years, there is something common to all the greats:a charming lead vocalist, a talented guitarist full of energy and creativity, a bassist with cool indifference and a drummer.

  For most of its life, rock has been split into different parts, creating new styles every few years-giving birth to a never-ending number of sub-genres.  5  Rock is a generic term, but it’s exciting that it can now mean so many different things.

A.Rock is my favorite and I’ll be a popular singer.

B.Now, it’s one of the world’s most popular genres.But musical styles don’t spring up overnight.

C.Rock had a specific sound and image for only a few of its early years.As time went by, the genre began to place equal emphasis on skills and pushing the boundaries of the music.

D.In fact, in the West, musically speaking, the years 1953~1955 are known as the rock ‘n’ roll years.

E.As a result, “rock”has been used to describe everything from bands playing catchy rhythms to groups based on tuneless, noisy guitars.

F.Rock music will be held in our school if we send an invitation to the band.

G.But it was Elvis Presley, known as “The King of Rock and Roll”, who really popularized the new sound throughout America and the Western world.
