      The CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs" story about death
     When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it were your last,
someday you"ll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33
years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, "If today were the last day of my life,
would I want to do what I am about to do today?"
      Remembering that I"ll be dead soon is the most important tool I"ve ever encountered to help me make
the big choice in life.
     I was diagnosed with cancer.The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that was
incurable, and that I would live no longer than three to six months.My doctor advised me to go home and
get my affairs in order, which is my doctors" code for preparing yourself to die.
     I lived with that diagnosis all day.I was completely in despair.Later that evening, I had another biopsy (活组织检查) and my wife told me that tumor turned to be curable with surgery.I had the surgery and
I"m fine now.
     This was the closest I"ve been to facing death.To tell the truth, no one wants to die.And yet death is
the destination we all share.No one has ever escaped it.It clears out the old to make room for the new.
Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be
cleared away.
     Your time is so limited that you shouldn"t waste it repeating someone else"s life.Don"t be trapped by
dogma (教条)-which is living with the results of other people"s thinking.Don"t let the noise of others"
opinions drown out your own inner voice.And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart.
It somehow already knows what you truly want to become.Everything else is secondary.

     I first went to Harrow in the summer term.The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen.

this with boys of my own size or less.
      One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool.He was no bigger than I was, so I
thought him a fair game.Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would
not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength
making its way by fierce strokes (猛力地划) to the shore.I fled, but in vain.He overtook me, seized me
violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool.I soon climbed out on the other side, and found
myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys."Do you know what you have done?" they said, "It"s
Amery; he is in Grade Six.He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor."
     I was frightened and felt ashamed.How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel
and so small.He didn"t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, "My father,  who is a great man, is also small." At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I
had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.
