The designer of the Apple Computer, Steve Jobs, was not quite successful in his early years. He was not among the best students at school, and from time to time he got into trouble with either his schoolmates or his teachers. But he was full of new ideas, which few people saw the value of. Things remained the same when he went up to college and he dropped out halfway.
Steve Jobs worked first as a video game designer at Atari. He worked there for only a few months and then he set out to tour India. He hoped that the trip would give him more ideas and give him a change in life for the better.
After he returned from India, he begin to live on a farm in California. And then, in 1975, Steve Jobs set about making a new type of computer. Along with his friend Stephen Wozniak, he designed the Apple Computer in his bedroom and built it in his garage(車庫). He gave the name “Apple” because it reminded him of a happy summer he once on an orchard(果園) in Oregon.
His Apple Computer was so successful that Steve Jobs soon became worldwide famous. But unluckily, he died of illness in 2011.

“Haibao，the mascot(吉祥物)of the 2010 Shanghai World Expo，is very cute，”said Gu Hui，a school kid．“I want a big toy like the mascot．”
Haibao looks like the Chinese word ren，which means people or a person．The name，a typical lucky one in Chinese tradition comes from the Chinese phrase “Si Hai Zhi Bao” —the treasure of the four seas．It also means the treasure of Shanghai，which lies beside the sea．
Haibao’s blue curly(卷曲的)hair looks like the waves of the sea．Its smile is a sign of the healthy spirit of China．Those thumbs-up(翹拇指)will welcome millions of people to Shanghai from around the world．Its big feet show China has the ability to host a successful Expo．
Haibao was created by two artists，one from the mainland(大陸) and the other from Taiwan．The design is about people living together in the city．The designers want it to fit the theme of the Shanghai Expo，that is，a good life should be created by all the people and people should have harmonious relationships(和諧關(guān)系) with nature and society，so that life in cities would be better．
Surely the mascot will become the lucky symbol and cultural remark of Shanghai Expo．
