COMPUTER`S KING － BILL GATES His childhood. His first computing experience. His advicesHis advices.

On October 28, 1955, shortly after 9:00 p.m., William Henry Gates III was born. He was born into a family with a rich history in business, politics, and community service. Early on in life, it was apparent that Bill Gates inherited the ambition, intelligence, and competitive spirit that had helped his progenitors rise to the top in their chosen professions. In elementary school he quickly surpassed all of his peer's abilities in nearly all subjects, especially math and science. His parents recognized his intelligence and decided to enroll him in Lakeside, a private school known for its intense academic environment. This decision had far reaching effects on Bill Gates's life. For at Lakeside, Bill Gates was first introduced to computers. His childhood

In the Spring of 1968, the Lakeside prep school decided that it should acquaint the student body with the world of computers. Computers were still too large and costly for the school to purchase its own. Bill Gates, Paul Allen, and a few other Lakeside students immediately became inseparable from the computer. They would stay in the computer room all day and night, writing programs, reading computer literature and anything else they could to learn about computing. His first computing experience.

His advices. A.Life is not fair. Get used to it. B.The world won‘t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. C.You will not make $40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone, until you earn both. D. If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn't have tenure. F. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a word for burger-flipping -- they called it "opportunity."

F. If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes. Learn from them. G. Before you were born, your parents weren't as "boring" as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes, and listening to you talk about how "cool" you are. So before you save the rainforest from the parasites of your parents' generation, try cleaning the closet in your own room. H. Television is not real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs. I. Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

J. Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to anything in real life. K. Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers and Christmas break off, and very employers are interested in helping you "find yourself." Do that on your own time. ~THE END~ I hope you will get something from this report
