Data from many big tech companies have shown how few of their employees working in programming and technical jobs are female. Google has the highest rates: 17% of its technical staff is fem

18、ale.It wasnt always this way. Decades ago, it was women who pioneered computer programming. But too often, thats a part of history that even people in the computing industry dont know.Last week, I took a trip to the birthplace for todays computer revolution, Stanford University, and randomly asked o

19、ver a dozen students if they knew who was the first computer programmer. Only one student, Cheng Daofan, got close. “Its a woman,” she said, searching her mind for a name. “Its not necessarily an electronic computer. I think its more like a mechanic computer.”Shes probably thinking of Ada Lovelace,

20、who was born in England on December 10,1815. Lovelace was Lord Byrons child, and her mother, Lady Byron, did not want her to turn out to be like her father, a romantic poet. So Lady Byron used mathematics to keep her from becoming a poet.But Lovelace saw poetry in math. At 17, she met Charles Babbag

21、e, who showed her his plans for the Analytical Engine that he believed would be able to do complex mathematical calculations. He asked her to write about his work for a scientific journal. In the article, Lovelace expressed a vision for the machine that went beyond calculations.“A computer could do

22、anything. Letters of the alphabet, musical notes and even the positions on a chess board could be represented by numbers,” wrote Lovelace. She even gave an example on how to load an instruction into the machine.Babbages machine was never built. But his designs and Lovelaces article were read by peop

23、le building the first computer a century later. In 1979, a new computer language was named “Ada” in recognition of her pioneering work with Charles Babbage.4.

DCOne thing that sets cycling apart from most other sports at the Olympics is technology. With the excep

27、tion of a few other sports, such as sailing and rowing, most events that take place at the Summer Games usually just come down to the performances of the athletes. They try to swim and run faster, jump and climb higher, lift and hit with more strength.In cycling, the competition is so close-often a

28、hundredth of a second separates riders-that the difference in winning and losing can be found in the chain, the wheels, and even the helmet that they choose to wear. That is why the US team made headlines at Rio 2016 Olympics Games, when it rolled out a new bike design that moved the entire drive ch

29、ain from the right side to the left. It might not catch the attention of the average bicyclists, who probably dont even notice which side the drive chain is on their own bikes. But it caused plenty of outcry from the Olympic Committee, since Olympic rules state that any bike used in competition must

30、 be made available to the public. But the American bike-maker Felt Bicycles only sold the new bikes to the American team. The price? $25,999 per bike.Then the British adopted a more tactful(圆滑的)strategy. It teamed up with bike maker Hope Technology to create something extremely expensive for the Tok

31、yo Olympics Games this year. The frame alone sells for about $23,500. Another $12,000 for the wheels. Throwing in the expensive suits, oil for chains, and sunglasses and shoes, the investment needed to compete for a cycling medal can be almost unaffordable for most of the athletes.8. Which game depe

32、nds less heavily on technology?A. Sailing.B. Rowing.C. Jumping.D. Cycling.9. What does the underlined word “outcry” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. Criticism.B. Praise.C. Excitement.D. Curiosity.10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The British athletes enjoy unfair advantages.B.

33、Hope Technology is more willing to help all.C. Hope Technology wants to save more money.D. The British team has broken the Olympic rules.11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Politics.B. Sports.C. Advertisement.D. Economy.【答案】8. C9. A10. A11. BDBack in the 1980s when monkeypox(

34、猴痘)was still an extremely rare disease, scientists kept warning: Over time, the monkeypox outbreaks will increase. At that time, there were only about 50 monkeypox cases a year in West and Central Africa where people caught the disease mainly from direct contact with wild animals. Infection between

35、humans was very limited. But in 2022, the world is facing the first international outbreak, with more than 5,000 cases reported in 44 countries within six months.So how could the scientists know in the 1980s that monkeypox would grow in size and spread internationally?Their warnings were based on th

36、e successful campaign against smallpox(天花), one of the deadliest diseases in human history, which killed up to 30% of the people infected. Thanks to a worldwide campaign, smallpox disappeared in the late 1970s. However, the end of smallpox opened the door for monkeypox to emerge.Monkeypox, whose pre

37、sent version kills less than 1% of people infected, is closely related to smallpox. Having a smallpox infection-or a smallpox vaccine(疫苗)-offers really good protection against smallpox as well as monkeypox. Perhaps about 85% protection. But in the late 1970s, the world stopped vaccining people for s

38、mallpox. So over the past decades, human resistance to smallpox and monkeypox has dropped sharply.“Were actually at a point where our immunity against monkeypox is the lowest in thousands of years,” says Jo Walker of the Yale School of Public Health. Without some resistance against the disease, peop

39、le are more likely to catch monkeypox from animals and spread it to someone else. So it is time that people who might come into contact with infected people were vaccined for monkeypox. Otherwise, it could become a permanent presence in the world, since every time theres an outbreak the virus has a

40、chance to figure out how to spread more quickly among people.Indeed, this new outbreak in Europe may be a sign that the virus has changed-even if just a bit-and may be increasing its ability to spread among people.12. What can be learned about monkeypox?A. It can be more dangerous than smallpox.B. I

41、t rarely spread from animals to humans.C. The outbreaks were not serious in the 1980s.D. Scientists are surprised by the present outbreaks.13. What does paragraph 4 mainly focus on?A. The cause of the present outbreaks.B. The disappearance of smallpox.C. The potential danger of smallpox.D. The treat

42、ment of monkeypox.14. What might Jo Walker strongly advise governments to do?A. Kill all the infected wild animals.B. Develop a special vaccine for treatment.C. Lock down the infected countries.D. Vaccine those in possible contact with the infected.15. What is the authors attitude to the present out

Thats because nutrition is available to plants only at proper pH levels, which vary for each type of plant.

And no matter how much you hope otherwise, “water tolerant” will never mean “likes wet soil”. Selecting plants suited to your growi

So its an important part of gardening. Improper covering, however, can kill your plants. Apply 2 to 3 inches of

It wasnt until I unpacked the bread at home that I realized that Id broken the rul

64、es again.That stupid plastic tape joined the long list of mistakes I made in just one week of trying to eat plastic-free. Last month, I challenged myself to purchase a weeks worth of food without bringing home any plastic. That meant no yogurt containers or plastic packages.I chose a budget of $115

65、(roughly half-way between the average weekly grocery bill for a family of two in Massachusetts). On Saturday afternoon, I pulled into the parking lot of a well-known zero-waste shopping center.I started in the produce section, where I typically got a plastic bag of organic baby carrots. This time, I

66、 could not go there because every vegetable in the organic section was packed in plastic containers. But I found some beautiful carrots among the non-organic produce. Then I saw the plastic price labels hanging off their rubber bands. I rolled my cart past the green beans and grapes, all inside the

67、plastic. I weighed loose apples, onions and sweet potatoes. My anxiety kicked in a feeling that I wouldnt have enough. So, I bought a head of cabbage.I tapped prices into the calculator on my phone. Leaving the produce section, I was in good shape, at $32. It was time to search for protein.I headed

68、to the meat counter. Again, everything was prepackaged in plastic. But the man behind the glass kindly agreed to put some chicken and meat, separately, in paper bags. Together they were $21.Tofu, cheese, yogurt and pretty much everything in the dairy section were prepackaged in plastic. Even the bot

There was no dairy or juice. He said hes interested in using more recyclable containers, but they were much m

71、ore expensive. He also told me that its hard to add that cost to the price of food, and that paper bags for nuts, beans or snacks werent as attractive on shelves as plastic bags. At the moment, I realized that perhaps I shouldnt have had aimed too high. After all, most customers had to shop with the

72、ir eyes on their wallets. The major plastic producers could not be closed down immediately. Thus, I decided to just reduce the plastic that I used once and threw away. Anyway, I was happy that I avoided using 27 plastic containers in the week. Maybe I could do better.听力：15 CABCA 610 ABABC 1115 CABCB 16-20 CBCAA
