“Three apples have changed the world. One is for Eve one is for Newton. The third is in the hands of Steve Jobs.” said someone.

Steve Jobs was the former CEO of the Apple computer company in his parents’ garage (车库) on April Fool's Day 1976. Through many years' hard work Jobs and his Apple products were a great success. People believe he has made the world a better place. Many young people also think of Apple products as a fashion icon.

Because of his great achievements in this area he was honoured (给予荣誉) with a number of awards including the National Medal of Technology in 1985 the Times cover character (封面人物) and the Most Successful Manager in 1997.

Jobs’ road to success wasn’t an easy one. He experienced several ups and downs but he was still standing. Just as Hemingway in The Old Man and the Sea said “A man can be destroyed but not be defeated (打败). So he was considered as an American hero.

What did Jobs’ workers and family members think of him?

On one hand some workers described him as a strange bad-tempered (坏脾气的) boss. They said he was impatient with those who disagreed with him or didn’t understand his ideas. On the other hand his family members thought of him as a home-loving dad with each of his four children. He worried about all the things of them such as their boyfriends travel safety and even skirt length. Though he was quite busy he still attended his daughter’s graduation (毕业) party.
