and has everything that money can buy. Well, almost everything. The problem is that the people in Jean's
family are so busy that they can hardly find time to be with her. In fact, Jean is quite lonely.
So Jean spends a lot of time on her QQ. She likes being anonymous (匿名), talking to people who do not
know about her famous family and her rich life. She uses the name Linda on QQ and has made a lot of friends
whom she keeps in touch with quite often.
Last year Jean made a very special friend on QQ. His name was David and lived in San Francisco. David
was full of stories and jokes. He and Jean had a common interest in rock music and modern dance. So it always
took them hours to talk happily on QQ and sometimes they even forgot their time. Of course, they wanted to
know more about each other. David sent her a picture of himself: He was a tall, good-looking young man with
a big, happy smile. As time went by, they became good friends and often sent cards and small things to each
other.
When Jean's father told her that he was going on a business trip to San Francisco, she asked him to let her
go with him so that she could give David a surprise for his birthday. She would take him the latest DVD of
their favourite rock singer. But when she knocked on David's door in San Francisco, she found that her special
friend was only a ten-year-old boy named Jim!

Music comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own. Poland has its folks. Hungary has its czardas. Argentina is famous for the tango. The U.S. is known for jazz, the type of music that has gained worldwide popularity.
Jazz is American contribution to popular music. While classical music follows formal European tradition(传统)，jazz is rather a free form. It is full of energy, expressing the moods, interests, and emotions (感情) of the people. It is breaking and exciting with a modern sound. In the 1920s jazz sounded like America. And so it does today.
The origins (起源)of the music are as interesting as the music itself. Jazz was invented by American Negroes, or blacks, as they are called today, who were brought to the Southern states as slaves. They were sold to farm owners and forced to work long hours in the cotton and tobacco fields. This work was hard and life was short. When a Negro died his friends and relatives would gather and carry the body to have a ceremony before they buried him.
There was always a band おwith them. On the way to the ceremony the band played slow, solemn music suitable for the situation. But on the way home the mood changed. Spirits lifted. Everyone was happy. Death had removed one of their members, but the living were glad to be alive. The band played happy music, this music made everyone want to dance. It was an early form of jazz.
Music has always been important in Negro life. The blacks, who were brought to America from West Africa, had a rich musical tradition. In the fields, they made up work songs. Singing made the hard work go faster. And when they got to Christianity, they made lovely spirituals, which have become an everlasting part of American music.
