This was the start in my life. And seventeen years later, I did go to college, but I chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my collegeAfter six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, and no idea of how college was going to help me and here I was, spending all the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out, I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me and begin dropping in on the ones that looked far more interesting.
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms. I returned Coke bottles for the five-cent deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the seven miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I by following my turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example.
There is a great person,who transformed our lives,redefined entire industries and achieved one of the rarest feasts in human history. He spent his life packaging that magic into elegantly designed, easy to use products. He even changed the way each of us sees the world. He is Steve yone maybe is familiar with him,especially with his .
Steve Jobs was an American businessman, designer and inventor. He is best known as the co-founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Apple Inc. Through Apple, he was widely recognized as a charismatic pioneer of the personal computer revolution and for his influential career in the computer and consumer electronics fields. As Apple floundered, Jobs took control of the company and was named "interim CEO" in 1997, or as he jokingly referred to it, "iCEO". Under his leadership, Apple was saved from near bankruptcy, and became profitable by 1998. Over the next decade, Jobs oversaw the development of the iMac, iTunes, iPod, iPhone, and iPad and on the services side, the company's Apple Retail Stores, iTunes Store and the App Store. The success of these products and services, providing several years of stable financial returns, propelled Apple to become the world's most valuable publicly traded company in 20xx. The reinvigoration of the company is regarded by some commentators as one of the greatest business turnaround stories.
If I were a reporter,I will ask Jobs :In his eyes,what is the most important for a use I really admire his achievement and another question is that faced with serious canser ,what did he think about?For most of people ,cancer Is a acute attack to one’s mental and heart ,but Jobs lead Apple to the climax.
The reason that I want to introduce Steve Jobs is not only because the enormous acomplish,but also because his great personality. The Economisist says:" NOBODY else in the computer industry could put on a show like Steve Jobs. His product launches, at which he would stand alone on a black stage and conjure up a "magical" or "incredible" new electronic gadget in front of an awed crowd, were the performances of a master showman. All computers do is to do something about cauculation, but do it fast enough and "the results appear to be magic", he once explained. He spent his life packaging that magic into elegantly designed, easy to use products."
In retrospect, Mr Jobs was a man ahead of his time during his first stint at Apple. Computing’s early years were dominated by technical types. But his emphasis on design and ease of use gave him the edge later on. Elegance, simplicity and an understanding of other fields came to matter in a world in which computers are fashion items, carried by everyone, that can do almost anything. "Technology alone is not enough," said Mr Jobs at the end of his speech introducing the iPad, in January 20xx. "It’s technology married with liberal arts, married with humanities, that yields the results that make our hearts sing." It was an unusual statement for the head of a technology firm, but it was vintage Steve Jobs.
He attributed his success to an obsessive attention to detail , his pursuit of perfection and his flair for said- "I want to make icons do look lick with his tongue"; To be able to sleep at night, to the aesthetic and quality throughout the pursuit of excellence""Do not let the noise of others opinions drown your inner voice, heart and intuition to have the courage to listen to the call." - He is Apple's "The Godfather" Jobs. "A pirate, a paranoid, a perfect combination of art and technology of IT leaders, a person who changed the world." He said in his youth that he wanted to "put a ding in the universe" did just that.
在上课时，教师应勇于“让位”给学生
新课标强调：学生是学习的主人，教师是学习的组织者、引导者与合作者。为此，教师要改变以往教学中“满堂灌”、“一言堂”、而要勇敢地“让位”，勇敢地把课堂还给学生，勇敢地把学习的主动权交给学生。
整堂课，经过画画引导孩子去学英语、说英语，用画画把孩子的思维得以最大限度的展开，他们你一言，我一语地交流着并且互相倾听着，碰撞着，从由一个单词到一个句子，最终成一篇小文章。而我只是作为一个引导者，鼓励学生用自我的思维去探索，用自我的语言去表达、交流。我想：仅有这样，教师才能算是整正地“让位”，才能算是让学生从真正意义上进行自主学习。也仅有教师这样真正地“让位”，孩子们的学习，才会是那么的投入、那么的主动、那么的进取！
The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely.
Michael Dell, CEO and founder Dell Inc., said of Steve Jobs’s passing Wednesday
"Today the world lost a visionary leader, the technology industry lost an iconic legend and I lost a friend and fellow founder. The legacy of Steve Jobs will be remembered for generations to come. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and to the Apple team."
The President of the United States Obama : Steve was among the greatest of American innovators – brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.
he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.
Mr. Iger’s statement:Steve Jobs was a great friend as well as a trusted advisor. His legacy will extend far beyond the products he created or the businesses he built. It will be the millions of people he inspired, the lives he changed, and the culture he defined. Steve was such an ‘original,’ with a thoroughly creative, imaginative mind that defined an era. Despite all he accomplished, it feels like he was just getting started.

3、我是唯一一个尝过一年损失5亿美元的。人，这是我的很大一部分。

8、你不应该只是为了当老板而开公司。你必须真正喜欢某样东西。我所知道的每一家成功的公司都是因为没有人相信他们的想法会成功而自己创业。苹果（apple）也是如此，皮克斯（pixar）和英特尔（Intel）也是如此。你必须热爱你的想法，并愿意为之冒险。创办公司是困难的。我做过的最困难的事情是创办一家公司，但这也是最有趣的事情。

Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories. The first story is about connecting the dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months but then stayed around as a drop-in for another eighteen months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out? It started before I was born. My was a young, unwed graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife, except that when I popped out, they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking, "We've got an unexpected baby boy. Do you want him?" They said, "Of course." My biological mother found out later that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would go to college.
This was the start in my life. And seventeen years later, I did go to college, but I chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my collegeAfter six months, I couldn't see the value in it.

本学期以来，本人认真研究学生，关注学生，研究课标，梳理知识结构，有计划地落实复习计划，顺利地完成了教育教学任务。现将本学期教学工作评价如下：
一、进行了英语学情分析。
本学期本人继续担任高三年级普通班高三(5)班的英语课，本班学生自高一以来学生基础就很差，在基础知识上，本人进行‘亡羊补牢’但为时已晚矣，在一、二年级时期末考试有个把及格的，也都选入A班，所以一向以来，本人所带的班中期末考试很难见到有学生上90分以上，大多学生的考分都是在20分以上至60分以下，少部分学生在85分段以下至60分。几乎所有学生都感到学习英语都是异常难的，主要原因是他们几乎记不了最简单的单词，语法也没基础，所以对英语学习异常头疼。教师讲课听不懂，所以厌学情绪严重，学习态度上也不正，上课睡觉、搞小动作、玩手机游戏等现象不时出现，英语成绩难以提高。所以开学之初本人既对本班学情进行了认真细致的分析。在本学期日常教学中认真落实因材施教和因人施教的的措施。本学期各方面情景才得以改观。
二、把教学计划落到实处。
本年度教学工作重心即在进行基础知识的复习上巩固和加深对基础知识的理解和掌握，提升期解决问题的本事，所以教学工作安排上把重心放在了对课本知识的复习上。三轮复习中，首轮复习资料是初三英语课本，高一年级课本22个单元，高二年级课本二十个单元。对这些资料的复习主要是：高考常用单词、短语，主要句型，基础语法等。平时复习中把高中英语复习语法项目中的十三个专题适当融合进去。经过练习和讲解，增强学生对语法的理解和对英语用法的复习巩固。
三、很多练习促进学生对基础知识的巩固和本事的提高。
课本复习是学生本事提高的关键。从开学之初即对课本知识点认真归纳和评价，经过练习的形式进行学习反馈。金版新学案《高三总复习》的运用是今年教学工作的一大幸事。人教修订版高考复习版金版新学案《高三总复习》成了学生的良师，也成了我英语教学中的益友。无论是单元复习还是高中英语知识点专题训练都是题目中的精品。我立足于新学案《高三总复习》，认认真真地把握好教学工作中的练习环节。
四、听力训练是作好提高成绩保障。
首先，我把从网上整理的高中课本和单词mp3拷贝到学生的mp3或mp4里，引导他们把娱乐工具当作学习的有力帮手。其次是用好学校统一订来的整套《维克多英语整套听力训练》本人要求学生充分利用在课上或课下时间进行听力训练。再加上本人利用教室里的多媒体播放一些趣味的用简单英语对话的外国英文版动画故事给学生看，大大提高学生的学习兴趣，英语听力也有必须的提高。
五、扩大阅读，培养英语本事。
课外阅读必不可少，这学期高三金版新学案《高三总复习》为班级三分之二的学生扩大了自我的眼界。金版新学案《高三总复习》里面的训练阅读理解题兼顾新闻、娱乐、科技、学校、地道美文等多方面资料。个别成绩比较好的学生把这些精彩的文章当作范文来朗读背诵。这不仅仅提高了学生的学习兴趣，也丰富和开拓了学生的视野。
六、注重学生英语作文的训练，推荐学生优秀作品。
本学期对学生的英语作文尽量进行面批，每次月考后，不但给出参考范文，同时也选出学生中的优秀作文进行赏识和点评，这种做法能够在必须程度上鼓舞了学生的英语学习的进取性。
七、加强学习，努力提升自身的素质
进取听课、评课，虚心向同行学习。与教研组的教师讨论教育教学方法，博采众长，提高教学水平。浏览相关网站，搜集相关资料，不断扩宽知识面，为教学资料注入新鲜血液。
以上只是对自我过去一个学期的教育教学工作的回顾，既有成功的经验也有值得思考的教训。
新的一年即将开始，我会更加努力地完善自我，进取地和高三备课组的同事们高效地完成教学任务。为20__届高考的学生创造更新的至高点而努力！
