A time capsule buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs 30 years ago has been discovered after its location was long forgotten.

In 1983, the young tech innovator was attending a conference in Aspen when he and the group decided to bury as a trick during a design convention. The tube that was filled with an eclectic collection of goods- ranging from the then-new apple mouse to a six-pack of beer for the people who discovered the time capsule- was meant to be dug up 20 years later. There was a problem with that plan, however, as everyone involved forgot where it was buried.

The final discovery happened at the hands of the crew from the National Geographic Channel’s reality show called Diggers. The discovery was well documented and is surely going to be featured on an upcoming episode, and even the experts had problems finding this particular treasure. CNET reports that in spite of their preparations and clear idea of where the 13-foot-long tube was, it still took them two hours to dig it up using heavy machinery.

To anyone removed from the tech industry, the accomplishment in finding the tube appears to be the biggest accomplishment. To others, the most interesting object would likely be the Lisa Mouse placed in the tube by the hands of a then-28-year-old Jobs. The Lisa Mouse, which Jobs named after his daughter, was one of the first commercial computer mice soled publicly, making it a rarity at the time.

The Aspen Historical Society is going to help the show creators make a list of the tube’s contents-but no word yet whether or not the Diggers cracked open one of the six bottles of Boddington’s Ale that was left inside for the people who found the tube.

1.Why didn’t people dig up the tube as planned?

A. Because it was difficult to dig it up.

B. Because the tube was too heavy.

C. Because everyone involved forgot where it was buried.

D. Because Steve Jobs died.

2.What is the meaning of the word "eclectic" in paragraph 2?

A. electronic　 B. original

C. various　　 D. extreme

3.Who discovered the time capsule?

A. Steve Jobs　　　　 B. the crew from Diggers

C. Lisa　　　 　　　　 　 D. the experts

4.What is the best title of this passage?

A. A time capsule was buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs.

B. A time capsule has been discovered after its location was long forgotten.

C. the accomplishment in finding a tube.

D. the origin of Lisa Mouse.
