   Steve Paul Jobs was an American businessman and widely recognized as a pioneer of the personal computer revolution(革命). He was co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Company. His death is a great loss to us. The following is some more information about him.

1.

         After Apple's founding, Steve Jobs became a symbol of his company and industry. At the time of his resignation, and again after his death, he was widely described as a pioneer and genius perhaps one of the foremost in the field of business, creation and product design, and a man who had changed the face of the modern world, completely changed at least six different industries. His death was considered a loss to the world by commentators(评论家) across the globe.

2.

         Memorial candles and iPads to Steve Jobs lie outside the Apple Store in Palo Alto, California. Apple has lost a creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve Jobs have lost a dear friend and an inspiring guide. Steve jobs leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

3.

         As is still clearly remembered, it was not long before Steve Jobs left his office as CEO of Apple. But he remained at the company as chairman of the company's board. Hours after the announcement, Apple shares dropped by five percent in after-hour trading. The relatively small drop, when considering the importance of Steve Jobs to Apple, was associated with the fact that his health had been in the news for several years, and he was on medical leave since January 2011.

4.

         Steve Jobs took a job as a technician at Atari company in California in 1974. He traveled to India in the summer of 1974. Seven months later, he returned to Atari and was assigned to create a circuit board for the game Breakout. With Wozniak, the founder of Atari, Steve Jobs began attending meetings of the Homebrew Computer Club where he got to know Edwin H. Land, the inventor of instant photography and founder of Polaroid Corporation, and modeled his career after him.

5.

         Apple announced that it would buy NeXT for $429 million. The deal was finally made in late 1996, bringing Steve Jobs back to the company he co-founded. In order to concentrate Apple's efforts, Steve Jobs stopped a number of projects. With the purchase of NeXT, much of the company's technology found its way into Apple products. Under his guidance the company increased sales significantly with the introduction of the iMac and other new products. Since then, appealing designs and powerful branding have worked well for Apple.

      At a day care center in Texas, children were playing outside. One of the children was Jessica McClure.
She was only 18months old. Her mother, worked at the day care center, was watching the children. Suddenly
Jessica fell and disappeared. Jessica's mother screamed and ran to her.
      A well was in the yard of the center. The well was only eight inches across and a rock always covered it.
But children had moved the rock. When Jessica fell, she fell right into the well.
      Jessica's mother reached inside the well, but she couldn't feel Jessica. She ran to a phone and dialed 911
for help. Men from the fire department arrived. They discovered that Jessica was about 20 feet down in the
well. For the next hour the men talked and planned Jessica's rescue.
      "We can't go down into the well," they said. "It is too narrow. So, we're going to drill a tunnel across to
Jessica. When we reach her, we'll bring her through the tunnel and up through our hole."

      At 8 p.m. on Friday, October 16, men reached Jessica and brought her up from the well. Then paramedics
rushed her to the hospital. Jessica was dirty, hungry, thirsty and tired. Her feet and forehead were badly injured. But she was alive.
