课程介绍
In this lesson we will look at Steve Jobs' famous Stanford speech in detail. We will talk about his views on learning, doing what you love and living your own life.
Please watch the video before the lesson, so we have all the lesson time for discussion.
(You can find a transcript of the speech here: https://news.stanford.edu/2005/06/14/jobs-061505/)
I will ask you some questions about the speech and we can exchange opinions.
If you have any questions about the meaning of the speech, I can help you understand it.
If we have time, we can also talk about some of the interesting and useful vocabulary that he uses.
I have selected some good words and phrases from the speech:
truth be told
no big deal
drop out
biological mother
calligraphy
typography
trust in your gut
follow your heart
visions (of the future)
board of directors
the Valley (Silicon Valley)
dropped the baton
screw up

the heart of
renaissance (getting better again)
settle
tumor
pancreas
incurable

cell
thankfully
intellectual concept

I think this is both a great speech and a great resource for learning English!
