    Michael Jackson was born in Indian，America，on August 29,1958. He was the seventh of the nine children{#blank#}1{#/blank#}his family.

    His father，Joe Jackson，set up the family band“The Jacksons”。It{#blank#}2{#/blank#}became“The Jackson 5”.Little Michael always{#blank#}3{#/blank#}his brothers practice singing. When he was about 5 years{#blank#}4{#/blank#}, he joined the group and became the lead singer of “The Jackson 5”.

    Michael's first public show was at a school program in his{#blank#}5{#/blank#}．grade in 1963.Wearing black{#blank#}6{#/blank#}and a white shirt, he sang Climb Every Mountain. Michael said,“Everybody gave me a big hand{#blank#}7{#/blank#}I finished singing. I just couldn't believe it. I didn't think I had done anything special. I was just{#blank#}8{#/blank#}the way I sang at home every night. I just open{#blank#}9{#/blank#}mouth and sing”.

    Michael's father was very strict with his sons. With their{#blank#}10{#/blank#}help,Michael and “The Jackson 5”Started collecting trophies(奖杯)at talent shows.

    Travel can teach kids more than a textbook. Travelling with kids is good {#blank#}1{#/blank#}them. They can find new interests. Travel makes information alive for kids, and makes it much {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (exciting) than studying textbooks or doing experiments in the lab. While travelling, they learn {#blank#}3{#/blank#}to deal with new situations, and communicate with other people. They learn patience, because sometimes {#blank#}4{#/blank#} takes a long time to get to some exciting or interesting places.

    I've been travelling since I was seven years old. For me, to stop {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(travel) would be like taking something away from my soul(灵魂). I can't live {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (with) travelling. Some people think it's hard to travel after having kids. But in my opinion, when people become parents, it doesn't mean they couldn't travel any more. My children have been travelling {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. They were three weeks old.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (bring) a new life into the world comes with many responsibilities(责任) and I'd love to be a good mother. One of my duties is to educate my children. I'm so thankful {#blank#}9{#/blank#}my parents took me on family trips when I was young. I've learned that the outside world is more colorful than the little one I was living in. Of course, I want to pass these travel {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(experience) on to my children.
