Rock and roll music developed in the United States in the early 1950s.It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.
   Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music.Elvis Presley，Chuck Berry，the Beach Boys，and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s.All were American.Then.in 1964，a new rock and roll group from England invaded America：the Beatles.
   Some people say the Beatles' music shook America like an earthquake.The Beatles changed rock and roll forever.Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians，including Chuck Berry.But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group before them.
   The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964，when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles.In 1967，they released an album called "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".It was one of the first "concept" albums.That is，all the songs were linked by a common story or idea.
   The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from England to become popular in America.The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands.The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960s that is still performing and recording today.In 1965，the group recorded one of its most famous songs， "Satisfaction".
   The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar.Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960s.His "Purple Haze" was liked by many people.
   By the 1970s，rock and roll music became known as rock music.It expanded into many new forms.For example，there was country rock，hard rock，acid rock，and heavy metal rock，punk rock，jazz rock，and glitter rock.
   In the middle 1970s，experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll.Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album "Born to Run".Springsteen's music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early 1960s.Many of his songs were about social issues.He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam.

   More than 78 percent of about 27，600 respondents to a poll on voted in favor of the idea of Li Jing，who is also the mayor of Meishan city in South-west China's Sichuan province.Li said the lunar new year festival holiday was too short for family reunions，especially for the nation's 220 million migrant workers.
   With hundreds of millions of people on the move during such a short time span，the holiday puts great stress on the public transport system and suppresses tourism，she added.She suggested the holiday be extended and cover the three adjacent（毗連的）weekends，which means the public could take a total of 16 days off and floating population could spend the Lantern Festival，which falls on the 15th day of the lunar new year，with their families.
   People would then have sufficient time to fully enjoy the traditional holiday with their families，Li said during an interview with People's Daily Online on Friday.
   Most online voters agreed that extending the holiday will ease the burden on public transport and strengthen family ties. "The Spring Festival is an occasion for family reunions and should be longer than the National Day holiday，" one responder said in an online post.

   Another online comment read： "Extending the Spring Festival holiday could prevent the annual transportation crush，which has in recent years resembled an exodus（出走）of fleeing refugees（難民）".
   Most of the about 13 percent who opposed the idea cited difficulties readjusting to work after the break.Some pointed out that office moral （士氣）was generally low during the first week after the holiday. "After the six-day holiday，many people come back to work feeling absent-minded， " one respondent said.Some who opposed the extension suggested adding the Lantern Festival as an official holiday.

3．Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee，according to an Australian study.
   The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not.Study author Brent Coker said， "Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention."
   "People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention，" Coker said on the university's website. "Having a short break，such as a quick surfing of the Internet，helps the mind to rest itself，leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work，and as a result，increases productivity（生產(chǎn)效率），" he said.
   According to the study of 300 workers，70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours.Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products，reading online news，playing online games and watching videos. "Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video，using social networking sites or shopping online，" said Coker. "That's not always a good idea."
   However，Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation（適度），or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. "Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without，" he said.
