Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana, and he was the eighth of the ten children. Michael’s father, Mr Jackson realized that his sons had a lot of talents, and he knew he could train them to become fine musicians. In those days, there were lots of music groups and some of them were very good. He knew if his sons were different from others, they would have to be the best. Their group later became the Jackson Five. Michael Jackson was the lead singer of the five in the team.
Practice makes perfect. And the Jackson boys practiced! Soon the group was much better than others. When the Jacksons took their first professional (专业的) job, their total pay was only five dollars! But they kept on. They played at important parties. They entered big competitions. They worked at various clubs. Five Jackson boys first performed together at a talent show when Michael was six,and they walked off with the first prize. Then name of this group began to get around.
When Michael was only 11 years old, he became the star. The young boy rose to become the “King of Pop”. Later on, Michael got a chance to do some solo (独唱) songs. He made his first solo album (唱片) in 1972. It just didn’t seem possible that so much talent could come from such a young performer. For the following years, Michael was always on the top among the popular singers. One million records of his were sold in New Zealand, which has only a total population of three million.
When Michael was eighteen, he entered another field of his acting career. “I plan to star in movies,” he told his friends, “but of course, my first love is music”. Michael wrote a lot of his own songs. Whatever he did, it worked! Still, with all his success, Michael managed to keep his head calm. “I just do a different job from other people,” he said, “but it doesn’t make me think I’m better than other people,” For anyone who wants to be successful, the road to success is a long hard one to travel.
In 1994, Michael married Lisa Marie, but the marriage ended in 1996. He married Debbie Rowe the same year and had two children. The couple never lived together after 1999. Jackson had three children named Prince Michael I, Paris Michael and Prince Michael II. Michael Jackson died after suffering a heart attack. His contribution to music, dance, and fashion, along with a much-publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over forty years.

All over the world the need for more laptops and computers increases each year.Networks have been part of our life.Probably everyone with a portable device (移动设备)has once logged on to a public WiFi network without paying for it,while they are having a coffee,on a train,in a shopping mall or at a hotel.However,is this kind of public WiFi network safe?

Some networks are better protected than others because encryption (加密)methods are used.Therefore,they are safer than others.But a survey in 2015 showed that more than 950 million records were not protected,including addresses,emails,birth dates,phone numbers,passwords and so on.These open WiFi networks are really not safe,because it is very easy for hackers (黑客) to break into the operating system and get people's private information.

Most smartphones and laptops,by themselves,search and connect to WiFi networks.They usually prefer a network with a connection that has been used before.Hackers'devices are able to record these searches and look like the trusted WiFi networks.When these smartphones and laptops log on to the networks which are not real,hackers can easily steal their private information.

Students at a primary school in Fuzhou,Hast China's Fujian Province were required to clean the school toilets to help them develop good habits.But some parents are strongly against the idea.They can't see the advantages of students doing such chores (杂亊).They think that the school should provide students with a proper education,not the chance to be school cleaners.

In fact,parents,schools and society play an equally (同等地)important role in developing the character of students.It is good for schools to give students such tasks,because few of the students will do them at home.Their parents want them to do homework only.
