This mea ns that the musicians make up the music as they go along, or create the music on the spot(现场)．This is why a jazz song might sound a little different each time it is played.

For the first 8 years of my daughter's life, I was a single mom, with no help or support from family. To make matters worse, I had left my long－time friends behind so they said I was completely alone.
You can do anything in this world that you make up your mind to do. If you have children, you will homeschool them once you've learned a little about homeschooling and child psychology—all can be obtained (获得) within 1/2 hour of reading.
And you don't need to follow the tough road I travelled. I worked all night after spending time with my child all day. I averaged 4 hours of sleep a night for those first 8 years. You may wonder if it was worth it. My answer was that I wouldn't have had it any other way. On the homeschooling side, life is much different. Homeschooled children are still tightly bonded with their parents, and have learned to make smart decisions on their own.
You likely can rely on friends and family. You likely have a spouse (配偶) who will support you. You likely don't have to learn the hard lessons I did when I was raising my homeschooled child because there is just so much more help and assistance available to homeschoolers now. Here's one of fun homeschooling activities for the elementary aged child (from 5 to 11 years old): Wordplay for Homeschoolers: How About a Brain Improvement?
(9 and up)
This will keep their brains working during the summer months. Improve creativity, vocabulary and have fun with creative puzzles, wordplay, and riddles.
So, get busy, have fun and enjoy those children this summer—without feeling tired! 28．The passage is mainly written for ________.
A．teachers B．friends C．parents D．children

C．cared for no one else D．had an unhappy marriage

A．makes children's life different B．is the best way to teach children C．helps parents make smart decisions D．works better than average schools
31．The readers are advised to ________.
A．follow her road strictly B．sleep for 4 hours every day
C．turn to others for help D．take part in more activities with their children

When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginary friends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities. As adults, it is still important for us to have friends.
True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.
Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.
Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.
32. The underlined word ＂stimulate＂ in Paragraph 2 probably means ____________.
A. educate
B. encourage
C. surprise
D. dislike
33. We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always ____________.
A. laugh at us when we’re fo olish
B.tell us other people’s secrets
C. share our sadness and interests
D. support us when we need help
34. We can learn from the passage that ____________.
A. people sh ould make friends anytime
B. friends are people who allow you to cry
C. a friend helps you in ma ny ways
D. good friends are always difficult to meet
35. What is the best title of the passage?
A. How to Reduce Stress
B. How to Make New Friends
C. The Importance of Friends
D. The Qualities of Good Friends

Be open to change.
You should expect to learn and grow and change during your time at school. 39 As the term progresses, realize things will change for both of you. Be comfortable addressing things that unexpectedly come up, setting new rules, and being flexible to your changing environment.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I’ve learned from a newspaper that six of eight bear species in the world are dying out as a result of human activities. One of the reasons why bears are often killed is that some parts of bears are very expensive as medicine. In addition, many habitats
of bears are being destroyed, so bears are losing their homes.
To save bears, I think more reserves for bears should b e set up so that they can live freely there. Besides, Laws should be passed to prevent people from killing bears.
Please give a hand to the endangered bears. They need help to survive.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua。
