It’s strange that a man born on Labor Day has had to work so hard to succeed in life. Jacob seems like a normal person. He likes music, art and photography. His parents both got college degrees. He used to go to a beach house in Portland every summer. He is a big fan of Mexican food. Reading these facts about him may lead to the opinion that he had a great childhood. However, behind all of these is a past that would be terrible for many kids growing up.

It started when he was only two years old. His parents divorced and then remarried. Going through elementary school and middle school, he was frightened a lot. This may have led to the worst thing that could have happened to a young man.

He developed deep depression. Doing the smart thing, he talked to his parents about his problem. His parents decided that this issue was very serious and Jacob was admitted to West Hills Hospital. He stayed there for two weeks and had his depression diagnosed. Serious insomnia caused the problem.

The solution was daily medication. The medication took care of Jacob’s depression problem. However, it contained a substance with lithium(锂). The side effect he suffered from lithium was that he got spoonfuls of sugar and ate it with anything else that was on his plate. This led to a weight gain of 25 pounds while he was on medication. So he decided he had to lose some weight and stop the medication.

Now he has lost a big part of the weight and he has managed to solve his problem he had in high school. Now he is a happy human being.

Many people would have had a very hard time coming back from depression. Many people probably would have given up their dreams. But Jacob is not like this. He took what was a mess of his life and turned it around to become a great man and a person with a very bright future.

Gao Xiaosong was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His grandfather was headmaster of the famous Tsinghua University. His wife’s father graduated from the Imperial College London and founded Shenzhen University. He basically grew up on Tsinghua's campus, and studied in the top schools in China, before he, unsurprisingly, entered Tsinghua's electronic engineering department, one of the school's best majors.

He wrote On the Same Page as You are at age 24. Almost overnight, every young person knew the song by heart. That tune and his later works made him a household name in the country. He later became a judge on the hot variety show (综艺节目) China's Got Talent.

Everything has gone right for him aside from one major bump in the road—he was arrested for drunken driving in 2011, after he left the first press conference for his film, My Kingdom.

"For me, the six months was not only a result of the trial but also an atonement,（赎罪）" he says. "Six months is like a leaf falling from the tree of life—no big deal. I was a spoiled person in many ways before 40. So, maybe it was an opportunity to pay for my wildness and arrogance(傲慢) in my youth." The hardest thing for him in prison wasn't sleeping between a thief and a bad man but missing his daughter's development from ages 3.5–4.

Gao has become even busier after getting out of prison for drunken driving. A tour concert of his songs is going around the country, while Morning Talk airs weekly. He is searching for new vocal talent for a music company, and his next film is in progress. But he knows clearly what he wants from life—he plans to focus on music until he turns 60, after which he'll focus on writing and film directing. "You can never write pop music at 60," he says. "I don't complain about that. But you can always write a good book or direct a good film, no matter how old you are."

1.What caused him to become well-known to every family in China?

(No more than 7 words)                                                  (3 marks)

___________________________________________________

2.What did he find it the most difficult to do when he was in prison?
