Steve Jobs was famous for starting Apple Computers. In a speech to graduating students at Stanford University, Jobs told students about some of life-changing experiences. Jobs believed these experiences helped him achieve success.

After six months of college, Jobs decided it was not for him. Around that time, he had read a quotation that went something like,“If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.”The quotation made him think about his life and his future.

阅读丁立梅的《掌心化雪》一文。

      ①那个时候,她家里真穷,父亲因病离世,母亲下岗,一个家,风雨飘摇。

      ②大冬天里,雪花飘得紧密。她很想要一件暖和的羽绒服,把自己裹在里面。可是看看母亲愁苦的脸,她把这个欲望,压进肚子里。她穿着已洗得单薄的旧棉衣去上学,一路上被冻得瑟瑟发抖。

      ③拐过校园那棵粗大的梧桐树,一树银花,映着一个琼楼玉宇的世界。她呆呆站看着,世界是美好的,寒冷却钻肌入骨。突然,年轻的语文老师迎面而来,看到她,微微一愣,问:“这么冷的天,你怎么穿得这么少?瞧,你的嘴唇,都冻得发紫了。”

      ④她慌张地答:“我不冷。”转身落荒而逃,逃离的身影,歪歪扭扭。她是个有自尊的孩子,她实在怕人窥见她的贫穷。

      ⑤语文课,她拿出课本来,准备做笔记。语文老师突然宣布:“这节课我们来个景物描写竞赛,就写外面的雪。有丰厚的奖品等着你们哦。”

      ⑥教室里炸了锅,同学们兴奋得叽叽喳喳,奖品刺激着大家的神经,私下猜测,会是什么呢?

      ⑦很快,同学们都写好了,每个人都穷尽自己的好词好语。她也写了,却写得索然,她写道:“雪是美的,也是冷的。”她没想过得奖,她认为那是很遥远的事,因为她的成绩一直不引人注目。加上家境贫寒,她有多自尊,就有多自卑,她把自己封闭成孤立的世界。

      ⑧改天,作文发下来,她意外地看到,语文老师在她的作文后面批了一句话:“雪在掌心,会悄悄融化成暖暖的水的。”这话带着温度,让她为之一暖。令她更为惊讶的是,竞赛中,她竟得了一等奖。一等奖仅仅一个,后面有两个二等奖,三个三等奖。

      ⑨奖品搬上讲台,一等奖的奖品是漂亮的帽子和围巾,还有一双厚厚的棉手套。二等奖的奖品是围巾,三等奖的奖品是手套。

      ⑩在热烈的掌声中,她绯红着脸,从语文老师手里领取了她的奖品。她觉得心中某个角落的雪,静悄悄地融化了,湿润润的,暖了心。那个冬天,她戴着那顶帽子,裹着那条大围巾,戴着那副棉手套,严寒再也没有侵袭过她。她安然地度过了一个冬天,一直到春暖花开。

      ⑪后来,她读大学了,她毕业工作了。她有了足够的钱,可以宽裕地享受生活。朋友们邀她去旅游,她不去,却一次一次往福利院跑,带了礼物去。她不像别的人,到了那里,把礼物丢下就完事,而是把孩子们召集起来,温柔地对孩子们说:“来,宝贝们,我们来做个游戏。”

      ⑫她的游戏,花样百出,有时猜谜语,有时背唐诗,有时算算术,有时捉迷藏。在游戏中胜出的孩子,会得到她的奖品——衣服、鞋子、书本等,都是孩子们正需要的。她让他们感到,那不是施舍,而是他们应得的奖励。温暖便如掌心化雪,悄悄融入孩子们卑微的心灵。
