When it came time for him to go into fourth grade, the school decided it was best to put Jobs and Ferrentino into separate classes. The teacher for the advanced class was a spunky woman named Imogene Hill, known as "Teddy", and she became, Jobs said, "one of the saints of my life." After watching him for a couple of weeks, she figured that the best way to handle him was to bribe him. "After school one day, she gave me this workbook with math problems in it, and she said, 'I want you to take it home and do this.' And I thought, 'Are you nuts?' And then she pulled out one of these giant lollipops that seemed as big as the world. And she said, 'When you're done with it, if you get it mostly right, I will give you this and $5.' And I handed it back within two days." After a few months, he no longer required the bribes. "I just wanted to learn and to please her." She reciprocated by getting him a hobby kit for grinding a lens and making a camera. "I learned more from her than any other teacher, and if it hadn't been for her I'm sure I would have gone to jail." It reinforced, once again, the idea that he was special. "In my class, it was just me she cared about. She saw something in me." It was not merely intelligence that she saw. Years later she liked to show off a picture of that year's class on Hawaii Day. Jobs had shown up without the suggested Hawaiian shirt, but in the picture he is front and center wearing one. He had, literally, been able to talk the shirt off another kid's back.
等到他即將進(jìn)入四年級(jí)的時(shí)候,校方認(rèn)為最好將喬布斯和費(fèi)倫蒂諾放到不同的班級(jí)里。教高級(jí)課程的是一名干勁十足的女教師伊莫金?希爾,人稱“泰迪”,用喬布斯的話說,她成為了“我生命中的圣人之一”。在觀察了喬布斯幾個(gè)星期后,她意識(shí)到對(duì)付他最好的方法就是收買他?!坝幸惶旆艑W(xué)后,她給了我一本練習(xí)簿,上面都是數(shù)學(xué)題,她說要我?guī)Щ丶野杨}目解出來。我心想:‘你是不是瘋了?’這時(shí)她拿出一只超大的棒棒糖,在我看來地球也不過這么大吧。她說,你把題目做完之后,如果大多數(shù)都做對(duì)了,我就把這個(gè)給你,再送你5美元。我用了不到兩天就做完交給她了。”幾個(gè)月后,他不想再要獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)了?!拔抑幌雽W(xué)習(xí)和讓她高興?!? 她會(huì)幫他弄到一些小工具,讓他可以做些打磨鏡頭、制作相機(jī)之類的事情?!拔覐乃砩蠈W(xué)到的東西比從其他任何老師那兒學(xué)到的都要多,如果沒有她的話,我一定會(huì)坐牢的?!边@再一次印證了喬布斯是個(gè)特殊的孩子。“在我們班,她只關(guān)心我一個(gè)人,她在我身上看到了一些東西。” 她看到的不僅是喬布斯的智慧。多年后,她很喜歡展示當(dāng)年的班級(jí)在“夏威夷日”拍的一張照片。那天喬布斯出現(xiàn)的時(shí)候沒有按要求穿夏威夷衫,但在照片中,他穿著一件夏威夷衫坐在前排中央。原來,他成功說服另一個(gè)孩子把自己的衣服脫下來給了他。
