PassageA

During initial days Of computing，SOftware was largely developed

by small groups of people. When

this software was to be maintained by another set Of people，it

used tO be a nightmarish experience．When large

commercial projects were tO be handled，it used tO be an almost

impossible task tO keep the time and budget under control，and

projects used tO get delayed and many projects were abandoned

halfway．There was no systematic procedure for the software

development；everything was done On ad hoc basis．This ad hoc

approach led tO the 'software crisis'．

Over the last few decades there has been a tremendous growth in

information technology and it impact on everyday life．Complex

software systems have become critical tO the operation Of many

systems inareas such as

banking，communications，manufacturing，power

generation， and

transportation． Progress in

computer science and accumulated experience with industrial

productiOn Of software have led tO the emergence Of software

engineering as a separate discipline． The

software engineering discipline has been defined as“the

application Of systematic， disciplined， quantihable approaches tO the development， operation， and maintenance Of software．”that

is， the application Of engineering tO

software

The computer science discipline concerns with developing large

applications．Software engineering covers not only the technical aspects Of building software systems， but also management

issues， such as directing programming

teams，scheduling，and budgeting

FOr developing a software

product， the development process is diVided

into different stages． A

convenient way Of splitting the whole process is tO diVide the

development into the following five stages:

Requirements Analysis & Specification：define the system

requirements in detail．

Design：specify system architecture and modules in detail．

Coding：produce source code．

Testing：deal with unit testing and system testing．

Maintenance： fix bugs， enhance features and adapt across platforms．

(二)Tell whether the following statements are true(T) Or

false(F) according tO the passage

A．(根据上文的内容判断下列句子的正误。10分，每题2分)

1．During initial days Of the development Of

software，everything was done in discipline.

2． The definition Of sOftware engineering is“the application Of

systematic，disciplined，quantifiable approaches tO the

development， operation， and

maintenance Of sOftware．”

3． For developing a software product，you

need design，coding and testing．

4． Software engineering is the application Of

engineering tO softtware。

5． SOftware engineering Only covers the

technical aspects Of building software systems．

Passage B

In OrdeR tO solve a computatiOnal problem， its solution must be specified in terms Of a

sequence Of computatiOnal steps， each Of which

may be performed by a human Or a digital

computer． If you want tO solve the computational problem with a

computer, you should learn how

to program. The task Of developing programs fOr

the soultion of computational problems is referred tO as

programming． Computer programming is the process

Of planning and creating a sequence Of steps fOr a computer tO

follow． In general， this

process will help us resolve a problem， which is either too tedious Or difficult tO

work out Otherwise ． SO programming is

breaking a task down into small steps．

Programming is Sometimes contrasted with coding． Coding generally refers tO the writing Of

programs fOr given program specification，while programming

includes the task Of preparing the program specification as well as

that Of writing the program． The text Of

a program is sometimes referred tO as

code， and lines Of program text are referred tO

as lines Of code， especially in the case Of machine-language programs． The term coder is used tO describe a person

engaged exclusively in implementing program specificatiOns prepared by Others.

What's, actually involved in programming—the actual process Of

writing programs? Here's a quick overview Of the

process：

．Write a program

. Compile the program．

. Run the program

．Debug the prOgram．

．Repeat the whole process until the program

is finished．

(三)Choose the best answer

according tO the passage

A．steps B．process C．lines D．graphicS

3． The term coder is used to describe——·

A．machine B．computer C．keyboard D．person

4． In order to solve a computational

problem， you can let a person or a______to do

it．

A．machine B．computer C．keyboard D．mouse

5．Which Of the following is not the stages Of programming?

A．Write a

program． B．Debug the program．

C．Print the

program． D．Compile the program

Passage C

The Internet，then known as ARPANET，was brought online in

1969，whlch initially connected four major computers at

universities in the southwestern US． The early

Internet was used by computer experts，engineers，scientists，and

librarians．There was nothing friendly about it． There were no home or office personal computers in

those days， and anyone who

used it，whether a computer professional or an engineer or

scientist or librarian， had to learn to use a very complex

system，

The Internet matured in the 1970’s as a result Of the TCP／IP protocols As the commands for E_mail， FTP， and telnet were

standardized， it became a lot easier for

non—technical people to learn to use the nets．It was not easy by

today's standards by any means， but it did open up use Of the

Internet to many more people in universities in

particular. Other departments besides the

libraries，computer，physics，and engineering departments found

ways to make good use Of the nets——to communicate with colleagues

around the world and to Share files and resources．

In 1991，the first really friendly inter face tO the Internet

was developed at the University Of

Minnesota. The University wanted tO develop a

simple menu system tO access files and infOrmatiOn on campus through their local network。

Since the Internet was initially funded by the

governrnent， it was orginally limited tO

research，education，and government uses。Comraercial uses were

prohibited unless they directly served the goals Of research and

educatiOn． This policy continued until the

early。1990's，when independent commercial networks began tO

grow．
