As we all know, Steve Jobs is the designer of the Apple Computer. However, not all people know that he was not
quite successful in his early years. He was not among the best students at school, and from time to time he got
into trouble with either his schoolmates or his teachers. But he was full of new ideas, which few people saw the
value of. Things remained the same when he went up to college and he dropped out halfway.
Steve Jobs worked first as a video game designer at Atari. He worked there for only a few months and then
he set out to tour India. He hoped that the trip would give him more ideas and give him a change in life for the
better.
After he returned from India, he began to live on a farm in California. And then, in 1975, Steve Jobs set
about making a new type of computer. Along with his friend Stephen Wozniak, he designed the Apple Computer
in his bedroom and built it in his garage(车库). He gave the name “Apple〞 because it reminded him of a happy
summer he once spent on an orchard(果园) in Oregon.
His Apple Computer was so successful that Steve Jobs soon became worldwide famous. But unluckily, he
died of illness in 2021.
26. Steve Jobs ______ when he was in school.
A. was an outstanding student B. didn’t learn anything
C. was always praised by others D. didn’t do very well
