What do you want to be when you grow up? People around the world like to ask their children the same question．Jake Schellenschlager from the USA had different answers to the question when he was a little boy．However，he had his final answer at the age of 12．After seeing his father doing weightlifting(举重），he had a big dream--he wanted to be the strongest kid in the world one day．Jake told us“Like father，like son．”．He also said，“My dad is super strong,so I want to be as strong as my dad．”
To make his dream come true，Jack trained(训练)very hard．When his friends were playing different games，he spent his time on weight training．After two years of hard work，the boy was able to lift(举起)more than twice his own weight．Now he trains every day and he hopes to lift heavier weights．
Jake has talked about his love of weightlifting and his dream to many people．However，not everyone is excited about it．Some people are worried that too much training may be bad to the growing boy’s body．However．Jake’s parents say they don’t worry about their son’s health because he gets regular check—ups(定期检查)and good trainers．
1．What was Jake’s dream at the age of 12?
