As a child, Jobs preferred doing things by himself, not interested in team sports or other group activities.He enrolled in the HewlettPackard Explorer Club. There he saw his first computer at the age of twelve. He was very impressed, and knew right away that he wanted to work with computers.
At that time almost all computers were so large that one could fill a room, and so costly that individuals could not afford to buy them.Advances in electronics, however, meant that the parts of a computer were getting smaller and the power of the computer was increasing.
By 1980 the personal computer era was well underway.Apple was continually forced to improve its products to remain ahead, as more competitors entered the marketplace. Apple introduced the Apple Ⅲ, but the new model suffered technical and marketing problems.It was removed from the market.
Early in 1983 Jobs unveiled the Lisa.It did not sell well,however, because it was more expensive than personal computers sold by competitors.Apple"s biggest competitor was International Business Machines (IBM). By 1983 it was estimated that Apple had lost half of its market share ( part of an industry"s sales that a specific company has) to IBM.
In 1984 Apple introduced a revolutionary new model, the Macintosh.The Macintosh did not sell well to businesses,however.It lacked features other personal computers had, such as a corresponding high quality printer. The failure of the Macintosh signaled the beginning of Jobs"s downfall at Apple.
Late in 1988 the NeXT computer was introduced, aimed at the educational market.The product was very userfriendly,and had a fast processing speed, excellent graphics displays,and an outstanding sound system.Despite the warm reception,however, the NeXT machine never caught on. It was too costly, had a blackandwhite screen, and could not be linked to other computers or run common software.
小题1:When did Steven Jobs first get the chance to catch sight of a computer?
A.In 1955. | B.In 1961. |
C.In 1967. | D.In 1980. |
A.All the computes used to be large enough to fill a room. |
B.Before 1980, Apple was not successful in the field of personal computers. |
C.Steven Jobs was born in Silicon Valley. |
D.Apple and IBM competed for sales of personal computers. |
A.was popular among the young people |
B.turned out to be a failure |
C.caused more competitors to come into the market |
D.could be linked to a printer |
A.The Apple Ⅲ. | B.The Macintosh |
C.The NeXT. | D.The Lisa. |
A.few people could afford it |
B.it was not fast enough |
C.it was not easy to use |
D.it lacked super sound system |
The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom. “I don’t know how to use a computer,” she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn’t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we’re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”
But she hasn’t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, ‘why me?’ about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn’t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I’ve come to realize the importance of that as I’ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”
小题1:Why did Mary feel regretful?
A.She didn’t achieve her ambition. |
B.She didn’t take care of her mother. |
C.She didn’t complete her high school. |
D.She didn’t follow her mother’s advice. |
A.had two books published |
B.received many career awards |
C.knew how to use a computer |
D.supported the JDRF by writing |
A.living with diabetes | B.successful show business |
C.service for an organization | D.remembrance of her mother |
A.lost control of herself | B.began a balanced diet |
C.tried to get a treatment | D.behaved in an adult way |
A.Mary feels pity for herself. |
B.Mary has recovered from her disease. |
C.Mary wants to help others as much as possible. |
D.Mary determines to go back to the dance floor. |
