Born in Gary, Indiana in 1958, Jackson was the seventh of nine children. He was five years old when he began singing with his brothers in a group called The Jackson 5, and eleven when their first album was released.

The Jackson 5 became an immediate success. Their music set records. Michael, the lead singer and energetic dancer, was the star of the group.

Music Video.

He sometimes acted and spoke in a childlike way, for example, he once bought a huge property in California which he called “Neverland” after the children’s story “Peter Pan”. And he suffered from injuries and illness that led him to take many kinds of pain-killing medicines.

In 1993, a thirteen-year-old boy accused him of sexual abuse. Ten years later, a similar accusation led to a criminal trial which began in 2005. A jury cleared Jackson of all charges. He called the trial the hardest thing he had ever met in his life.

Good Health starts from infancy. It is here that protection and care are needed, so that each organ functions well, each organ develops naturally, and there are no deformities, disabilities and diseases. But often the health of children remains neglected, with the result that they grow unhealthily and that affects their education as well.

A healthy child develops into a healthy adult. If the child does not grow properly, he may become handicapped in some way and his ill-health may spoil his adult life. He may not be able to join any active service; he may not be a successful professional, and he may not have a happy life .

Health is real wealth. A healthy person is an asset to himself, to his family and to his community. Health is the pivot upon which a man’s whole personality and his well-being depend. An ailing and aching body saps the enthusiasm for pursuit.

Health cannot be achieved merely by taking one or two pills everyday or by observing a few restrictions. It can be achieved only by understanding what health is, upon what it depends and then applying this knowledge in everyday life.

The care of the body regarding food, cleanliness, exercise, rest and protection against disease, is essential for the preservation of sound health. Life is for living. Without health, life is deprived of not only much of its usefulness but also its joys and pleasures.

The stream of life will be rich and lasting in proportion to the resources which nourish it. These resources belong to every person. They are food, exercise, proper posture, care of bodily

functions, avoidance of alcohol and tobacco and wholesome mental and emotional attitudes. （10 分）
