“苹果”乔布斯的小秘密

发布时间：2019-07-19 编辑：查字典英语网小编

1. His sister is a novelist, but he didn't know it until he was an adult.

直到成年后，乔布斯才知道自己有个小说家妹妹（叫Mona Simpson）。

2. The one requirement his biological parents had was that he be adopted by two college educated people. But the couple that adopted him lied at first and turned out not to be college educated (the mom was not a high school graduate) so the deal almost fell through until they promised to send Steve to college.

乔布斯父母定下的领养条件之一就是，养父养母必须是大学生。而实际上乔布斯的养父母最开始在抱养乔布斯的时候撒了谎，他们不是大学生（乔布斯的母亲甚至连高中学历都没有），最后乔布斯的养父母承诺一定会让史蒂芬·乔布斯上大学，乔布斯的亲生父母才答应下来。

3. He denied paternity on his first child, claiming he was sterile.Like father, like son. But people change, mature, grow up. Eventually Jobs became a good father.

乔布斯曾以不育为借口拒绝抚养自己的第一个孩子。真是有其父必有其子啊。但是人是会变的，随着成长人会变得慢慢成熟，最终乔布斯成为了一个很棒的父亲。

4. He's a pescetarian. In other words, he eats fish but no other meat.

乔帮主是鱼素者。也就是说除了鱼，其他动物的肉他都不吃。

5. He doesn't give any money to charity. And when he became Apple's CEO he stopped all of their philanthropic programs. He said, "wait until we are profitable".

乔布斯从没为慈善事业捐过一分钱。在他升任苹果公司CEO之后就停止了苹果公司的一切慈善活动。他说“慈善这个东西等我们盈利之后再说吧。”

6. He's a Zen Buddhist. He even thought about joining a monastery and becoming a monk.

乔布斯是禅宗佛教徒。他甚至想过去当和尚。

7. He didn't go to college. Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg are the famous college dropouts that I knew about. But apparently Steve Jobs went to Reed College for one semester and then dropped out.

7. 乔布斯也没读完大学。比尔·盖茨、马克·扎克伯格从大学退学的有名事迹我知道，但是其实乔布斯在里德学院读了一个学期大学之后也退学了。
