It was in the laboratory of Prof. Edward Lorenz that I learned what a computer was and how to develop software.One day my husband saw a newsp

24、aper advertisement. The MIT Instrumentation Laboratory was looking for people to develop software to “send man to the moon”. Deeply attracted both by the idea and the fact that it had never been done before, 1 became the first programmer to join and the first woman the lab hired.At the beginning, no

25、body thought software was such a big deal. But then they began to realize how much they were relying on it. Our software needed to be very reliable and able to detect an error and recover from it at any time during the mission.My daughter, Lauren, liked to intimate meplaying astronaut. One day, she

26、was with me when I was doing a simulation （模拟）of a mission to the moon. She started hitting keys and all of a sudden, she selected a program which was supposed to be run before launch.

But the higher-ups at MIT and NASA said the astronauts were too well trained to make such a mistake.On the very next mission , Apollo 8, one of the astronauts on board

28、accidentally did exactly what Lauren had done. The Lauren bug! It created destruction and required the mission to be rearranged. After that, they let me put the program change in. It was the program change that had a crucial influence on the success of the mission of Apollo 11.During the early days

29、of Apollo, software was not taken as seriously as other engineering disciplines （学 科）.It was out of desperation I came up with the term “software engineering”. Then one day in a meeting, one of the most respected hardware experts explained to everyone that he agreed with me that the process of build

33、 mouth of a Pacific lingcod. These fearsome fish have around 500 needlelike teeth sticking out of jaws (颌)that are strong enough to crush crustaceans (甲壳 动物).How lingcod maintain the sharpness of their terrifying teeth has long been a puzzle. But a study, published in November in the Proceedings of

34、the Royal Society B、claims that Pacific lingcod keep their teeth sharp and shiny by replacing about three percent of them every day. For a lingcod, thats up to 20 teeth replaced daily.In order to determine (he frequency at which lingcod replace their teeth, Ms. Cohen, a coauthor of the new study, an

35、d her colleagues kept 20 lingcod at the University of Washingtons Friday Harbor Laboratories and tracked how many teeth they lost and regrew over several days. The fish were placed in a tank of seawater mixed with a red dye (染料)that colored their teeth, then returned to (heir regular tank for 10 day

36、s. When the 10 days were up, (he fish were placed in a tank containing a green dye and then examined. The teeth that were present since the start of the experiment were both red and green, whereas the new teeth were only green.After collecting and examining a total of 10,000 teeth, the scientists we

37、re able to determine how quickly lingcod lost and regrew their teeth and which teeth were replaced most often.Lingcod, like most fish, have two sets of jaws: oral jaws and pharyngeal jaws. Their oral jaws are used to catch food while their pharyngeal jaws, which arc positioned in their throats, arc

38、used to chew their food and move it from their mouths to the stomach. Ms. Carr, the lead author, and colleagues found that teeth are replaced more frequently in the back of the mouth, where most of the chewing and crushing take place.The way lingcod replace their teeth is likely crucial to their hun

39、ting strategy, says Kory Evans, a fish ecologist at Rice University in Houston. The duller a lingcods teeth are, the harder it is going to be for it to hold on to its target. So having the ability to shed teeth and replace them is pretty important. Dr. Evans said, uIn order to make it as a lingcod,

40、you need sharp pointy teeth and all your(ee(h need lo be on point. 28. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. What role seawater played.B. What conclusion was reached.C.

Lose.D. Examine.31. What is the purpose of writing this passage?A. To warn people of the danger of a fish.B.

42、 To introduce the findings of a new study.C. To stress the importance of replacing teeth.D. To suggest new ways to conduct studies on fish.DAs college sports continue to be hugely popular and the National Collegiate Athletic Association （NCAA） brings in large amounts of money, people have restarted

43、the debate on whether college athletes should get paid.Supporters of （he idea believe that, because college athletes are bringing in audiences, they should receive sonic sort of compensation （补偿）.In fact, the NCAA brings in about $1 billion income a year, but college athletes dont receive any of tha

44、t money in the fbnn of a paycheck. Additionally, people who believe college athletes should be paid state that paying college athletes will actually encourage them to remain in college longer and not turn professionals as quickly, cither by giving them a way to begin earning money in college or requ

45、iring them to sign a contract （合同）saying theyll stay at the university fbr a certain number of years while making an agreed- upon salary.People who argue against the idea of paying college athletes believe the practice could be disastrous for college sports. Paying athletes would turn college sports

46、 into a bidding （竞拍）war, where only the richest schools could afford top athletes and most schools would be shut out from developing a talented team. It could also harm the camaraderie within many college teams if players become unhappy that certain teammates are making more money than they are.Thos

47、e against paying college athletes also believe that the athletes arc receiving enough benefits already. The top athletes receive scholarships that are worth tens of thousands per year. They receive free food and textbooks, get travel bonuses and free equipment, and can use their time in college as a

48、 way to attract the attention of professional coaches. No other college students receive anywhere near as much from their schools.While both sides have good points, its clear that the negatives of paying college athletes far outweigh the positives. College athletes have been compensated enough. Adding a salary would result in a college athletic system where only a few athletes are paid by some schools who enter bidding wars to sign them up, while most student athletics and college athletic programs suffer or even shut down for lack of money. Continuing to offer the
