完形填空

  Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20.We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had   1   from just the two of us in a   2   into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees.We had just   3   our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30.And then I got fired.How can you get fired from a company you   4  ? Well, as Apple grew we   5   someone who I thought was very talented to   6   the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well.But then our visions of the future began to diverge(分歧)and   7   we had a falling out.When we did, our Board of Directors   8   with him.So at 30 I was out.And very publicly out.  9   had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating(毁灭性的).

I really didn't know what to do for a few months.I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to   10   for screwing up so badly.I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley.But something slowly began to   11   on me-I still loved what I did.The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit.I had been   12  , but I was still in love.And so I decided to start over.

  I didn't see it then, but it   13   that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the   14   of being a   15   again, less sure about everything.It freed me to   16   one of the most creative periods of my life.

  I'm pretty sure  17   of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple.It was   18   tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it.Don't lose   19  .I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.Don't   20  .As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.So keep looking until you find it.-By Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer
