When Washington wrote that, Englishmen had been referring to insects as bugs for more than a centu
37、ry, and Americans had already created lightningbug (萤火虫). But the English were soon to stop using the bugs in their language, leaving it to the Americans to call a bug a bug in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.The American bug could also be a person, referring to someone who was crazy about a
38、particular activity. Although fan became the usual term, sports fans used to be called racing bugs, baseball bugs, and the like.Or the bug could be a small machine or object, for example, a bugshaped car. The bug could also be a burglar alarm, from which comes the expression to bug, that is, “to ins
39、tall (安装) an alarm”. Now it means a small piece of equipment that people use for listening secretly to others conversation. Since the 1840s, to bug has long meant “to cheat”, and since the 1940s it has been annoying.We also know the bug as a flaw in a computer program or other design. That meaning d
40、ates back to the time of Thomas Edison. In 1878 he explained bugs as “little problems and difficulties” that required months of study and labor to overcome in developing a successful product. In 1889 it was recorded that Edison “had been up the two previous nights discovering a bug in his invented r
41、ecord player.”bug 一词始于英国,美国人却不断开拓创新,赋予这一词汇丰富多彩的意义。24We learn from Paragraph 1 that_.AAmericans had difficulty in learning to use the word bugBGeorge Washington was the first person to call an insect a bugCthe word bug was still popularly used in England in the nineteenth centuryDboth Englishman and

I know that they do not expect an answer such as “Oh, I did not know that there are children dying from hunger, but from now on I will stop any kind of space research until
45、mankind has solved that problem!” In fact, I have known of this long before.But I firmly believe that by working for the space program we can make some contributions to the relief and eventual solution of such serious problems as poverty and hunger on the Earth. Two basic factors causing the poverty
46、 and hunger problems are the production of food and the distribution (分布) of food. In fact, large areas of land could be used far better if efficient methods of farming, fertilizer use, weather forecasting, field selection, planting, crop surveys, harvest planning and so on were applied. The best to
47、ol for the improvement of all these methods undoubtedly, is the artificial Earth satellite. Circling the globe at a high altitude, it can screen wide areas of land within a short time; it can observe and measure a large variety of factors indicating the status and condition of crops, soil, droughts,
48、 rainfall, snow cover, etc.Besides, in the modern society, there is a continuing great need for new basic knowledge in the science if we wish to improve the conditions of human life on the Earth. We need more knowledge in physics and chemistry, in biology and physiology, and particularly in medicine
49、 to cope with all these problems which threaten mans life: hunger, disease, overpopulation, pollution of water and the environment. In a way, the space age not only holds out a mirror in which we can see ourselves, it also provides us with the technologies.当世界上许多孩子正面临着饥饿的时候,是否应该花巨资进行太空研究呢?对于这一问题,作者在
