It could be time for Pan to realize her dream. Several months ago， China ended its long-lasted one-child policy(政策)， and now every couple can have two children. But what would it be like growing up with a sibling(兄弟姐妹)?

But there are downsides too. You need to share things with your siblings， including attention from parents， toys， the TV. There could be lots of competition， name calling(吵架)， and even hair-pulling.

Almost everyone has experienced a twist of fate (命运的转折) at some point of their lives. Chinese actor， Hu Ge， is no different. And his story is more amazing than most.
Hu enjoyed success at a very young age. In 2005， he acted as a swordsman in the TV series The Legend of Sword and Fairy (仙剑奇侠传)， who later became a classic character. Then the 23-year-old Hu became the first choice for costume idol dramas (古装偶像剧).
Everything was going well until a serious car accident in 2006 changed his life. The accident almost killed Hu and left a big scar (伤疤) by his right eye. Although Hu still got invitations to be in idol dramas， he realized that being an idol with just a pretty face is not what he wanted.
For the next few years， he tried acting in serious dramas and stage plays. He didn’t mind being covered with dirt and blood (血) when playing a soldier. He practiced the plays hundreds of times to make sure he did well.
Hu’s hard work haven’t got much attention until last year. Two TV dramas he acted in， The Disguiser (伪装者) and Nirvana in Fire (琅琊榜)，helped him get back on top.
