No one knows exactly when jazz was invented, or by whom. But it is said that it began in the early 1900s. Jazz was a new kind of music, and New Orleans was its birthplace.
Who were the jazz pioneers? Most were blacks. This music was not usually written down, and at first only black musicians played it. It was hard for white musicians to learn the new style. But soon they were playing jazz, too.
The popularity(普及)of this music spread. From New Orleans, it traveled up the Mississippi to Chicago, then to Kansas City and New York. By the 1920s, there were many jazz musicians, both black and white. Many of them were famous, including the most well-known one, Louis Armstrong.
Louis Armstrong was a born musician. He was not only talented but also hard-working. He also had a good sense of humor. After he became famous, he traveled around the world. It seemed that everyone wanted to hear Louis play. But life for him was not always easy, especially at the beginning.
Louis Armstrong was born in 1901 in New Orleans. His father never went to school and his mother could hardly read. When Louis was still a kid, his parents separated, and Louis lived with his mother. Their life was very hard. But Louis smiled through everything. He later wrote, "My whole life has been filled with happiness. Life was there for me and I accepted it. Whatever happened has been beautiful to me. I love everybody."
27. Where was jazz born?
28. Who were the jazz pioneers?
29. How was Louis Armstrong's early life?
30. Can you smile through everything when you are in trouble? Why or why not?
31. 将短文中画线部分翻译成中文。
