阅读短文，回答问题

To me, music is food and water. I can't live without it. I know this is not true for everybody. Usually lots of people go to concerts or listen to music records. Maybe some of you don't do these and you get along quite well, but music is everywhere in our life. For example when you watch movies or TV plays, will you find them interesting if there is no music? I'm sure you will find them boring. And when you are waiting for the train or the plane, you would like some music because it makes the time seem shorter.

Some people like to sit by the sea and listen to the sound of the sea. Some enjoy listening to the singing of birds. Those sounds are some kind of music. So music has meaning for everyone in some way or others. Of course, it has special meaning for people like me. We spend our lives playing or writing music.

Someone said, "Through music a child goes into a world of beauty, learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body strong."音乐真的在我们的生活中扮演重要的角色。

（1）、What is music to the writer?

（2）、How do Jots of people usually enjoy music?

举一反三

     Have you ever complained(抱怨) why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you'll find that the whole world smiles to you.
While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher's face when you did a good job?
      One day it is fine. Just before you want to go out, it suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather. But dear friends, why don't you sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature offers you? And with the timely rain, crops in the fields will grow better and better, so farmers will have a good harvest.
    Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure(失败) can't be avoided. I think failure is not terrible, and the terrible thing is that we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do. As a popular saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success.”
    Attitude decides everything. With an optimistic(乐观的) attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let's smile to whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.

    Camping in your backyard is full of fun, whatever your age is. It's great for keeping us relaxed. It offers chances to enjoy the night sky and to be noisier(更热闹) than usual. It lets us have friends over to stay who might not fit inside the house! Follow these instructions and you'll have a night you'll never forget!
Put up your tent
    Considering the (1)  of family members and guests, you may need more than one (2) . Tell your friends to bring their tents if needed. Follow the instructions or check out the articles on how to put up a tent on the Internet.
Prepare your bedding
    You'll want your guests to be able to relax in comfort. Put something soft to lie on the floor: A blow-up air mattress(床垫) or thick comforters may work well. Fill the tent with soft toys and blankets. Have lightweight sleeping bags or cotton blankets. (3)They are especially important if you live where the night temperatures drop greatly.
Prepare a seating area
    If you have a picnic table, that would work best. If not, set up a few chairs and a small table to set out(摆出) drinks and food. A simple choice is to lay out a blanket in the open air, so that your friends can eat and talk. Be sure the grass isn't wet!
Make memories
    Plan some activities. You're camping in the backyard, so it's time to make the most of being outdoors.
Have a camera nearby to take photos of you, your family members, and your friends. Take one large group shot with everyone smiling and laughing. Be sure to make copies for everyone!

根据短文内容，回答下列问题。

It's the end of class. When the bell rings, students of a Foreign Languages School in Shenzhen quickly take out their mobile phones. They like to log on (登录) to their micro blogs to check the funny things that have happened in the last hour.

Micro blogging has swept the country during the last few years. Recent surveys show that most students in middle schools have a micro blog, and some even update their blogs more than five times a day.

"We learn many fresh and interesting things on micro blogs and they have become popular topics in class," said Liang Jianmin, 14, a student from Harbin No. 3 Middle School. "If you do not know about them, you are out.”

It is also a great place for students to relax." My parents always ask me to study hard, and encourage me before exams, but actually it adds pressure," said Zhang Yazhe, 15, a student from a Foreign Languages School. "When I share these feelings on my micro blog, I get many replies from friends in the same situation, which makes me feel better."

But parents are worried that micro blogging could be a waste of time. Some misleading messages may even be dangerous to kids.

Shen Mingde, a professor, suggests parents not worry too much that kids are crazy about micro blogging. Instead， however, it can also become a window for parents to understand their children. "If parents can read their children's micro blogs, they'll know their thoughts, it can lead to better communication and solutions to problems," he said.

He also gives some advice to kids.

Don't micro blog for more than one hour a day.

Never micro blog in class.

Try to talk face to face with people from time to time.

Be critical(批判性的). Not all the messages on the micro blog are true.
