Every year， many people in the world travel to this African country to watch the animals closely. But do you know how they travel?By busThis is the most common way.

What are they used for? Oh， people can use it to watch animals， especially those dangerous animals， and take photos. We know that people are most interested in the lions. So when two buses meet ， the drivers will stop and ask each other whether they have found lions.By boatWe can often see many people are in a boat， enjoying the beautiful scene along a river of a lake， and they can also enjoy hippos（河马）and crocodiles from a nearer distance.By hot balloon（热气球）In the early morning， when the sun is beginning to rise， a large hot balloon is also starting its journey. Taking a hot balloon makes most of the travelers excited. After some time， the balloon will land in a certain place， and the waiters will serve people a delicious and special breakfast. But the cost of taking a hot balloon is also very high. A person should pay 400 dollars for an hours trip.39 .

Steve Jobs had a passion(激情) for education. He may be gone, but we still have a chance to learn from his courage and innovation(革新).Making MistakesI think that the main reason why we cant find proper ways to improve the education system that no longer serves us well is simply fear. Fear of failure. Fear of getting it wrong. Teachers fear that innovation could endanger their jobs. Steve had the attitude we need in education right now. Sometimes when you create something, you make mistakes. It is best to admit(承认) them and get on with improving your other innovations. Thats the kind of spirit that we need to have.Motivation(动机) MattersWeve concentrated(专注于) so much on results that we dont always reward good motivations. But these things are very important. In our schools, weve cared so much about test results that weve lost creativity. We dont reward students for their hard work, and we punish failure. As a result, we lost imagination and found no motivation to try something that has a chance of ending in failure.What Defines(定义) Failure?The company that Steve Jobs started in 1985 after being forced out of Apple shows us how technology could influence educational innovation. In 1985 he started NeXT. The company was providing computers for educational purposes. NeXT wasnt really financially(经济上) successful. But it may have been ahead of its time. Today, we see what the technology brings into the classroom.Changing Our ModelThe company sold around 50,000 computers. But that would be missing the point. It was a NeXT cube workstation that encouraged the first web server. It helped in the development of early Internet technology. Truly, Steve Jobs has taught us that results are not the most important things in life.44 .
