Vijay, who lives with her parents in Melbo

29、urne, Australia, at the age of seven realised that her piggy bank did not have enough money to hire a developer to make her an app, so she decided to teach herself how to code. With the help of YouTube videos, the young techie learned to code. For one entire year, she watched multiple coding tutoria

30、ls on the web and became a programmer herself.Vijays inspiration for developing the apps was her little sister, who was still learning to talk. Therefore, Vijay developed an educational app for children that were her sisters age. The app is called Smartkins, which uses about 100 sounds and flashcard

31、s of different animals that help children learn and identify. Later, Vijay developed a similar iOS app for children to identify and learn colors. Each app has been downloaded thousands of times.Anvithas skills won her a scholarship to attend a big tech conference hosted by Apple in San Francisco, Ca

32、lifornia. There, she got tips from the pros. She went to workshops where she learned about the latest software for app building.All that training led to an idea for a third app. This one, called GoalsHi, inspires kids to practice good habits. Users are rewarded for achieving goals, such as eating th

33、eir vegetables or practicing piano. Anvitha says the rewards are like getting a sticker for a job well done.Anvithas goal is to continue creating technology that helps kids learn while having fun.

37、ll and Robert Barton of the University of Durham, after studying the results of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at the Olympic Games, conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more lik

38、ely to win. Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other, colour has no effect on the result. However, when there is only a small difference between them, the effect of colour is enough to tip the balance. The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is

39、not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant. Joanna Setchell, a primate (灵长目动物) researcher at the University of Cambridge, has found similar results in nature. She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills. Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out agai

40、nst their white faces. Setchells work shows that the powerful malesthe ones who are more successful with femaleshave a brighter red nose than other males. As well as the studies on primates by Setchell, another study shows the effect of red among birds. In an experiment, scientists put red plastic r

41、ings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds success with female zebra finches. Zebra finches already have bright red beaks (鸟喙), so this study suggests that, as with Olympic athletes, an extra flash of red is significant. In fact, researchers from the University of Glasgow sa

42、y that the birds brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier. Nothing in nature is simple, however, because in species s

43、uch as the blue footed booby, a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females. Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? Robert Barton accepts that “that is the imp

44、lication” of their findings. Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing? 43. According to their research, Hill and Barton conclude that _. A. the colour of clothing has an effect on most sport eventsB. red should be the choice of colour for clothing in sportsC.

A. achieveB. seekC. keepD. change45. The example of the blue footed booby proves that _.
