Ms Byron is one of 419 students (out of 8,744 who applied) who were accepted for Google's "summer of code". While it sounds like a hyper-nerdy summer camp, the students neither went to Google's campus in Mountain View, California, nor to wherever their mentors at the 41 participating open-source projects happened to be located. Instead, Google acted as a matchmaker and sponsor. Each of the participating open-source projects received $500 for every student it took on; and each student received $4,500 ($500 right away, and $4,000 on completion of their work). Oh, and a T-shirt.
All of this is the idea of Chris DiBona, Google's open-source boss, who was brainstorming with Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Google's founders, last year. They realised that a lot of programming talent goes to waste every summer because students take summer jobs flipping burgers to make money, and let their coding skills degrade. "We want to make it better for students in the summer", says Mr. DiBona, adding that it also helps the open- source community and thus, indirectly, Google, which uses lots of open-source software behind the scenes. Plus, says Mr. DiBona, "it does become an opportunity for recruiting".
Elliot Cohen, a student at Berkeley, spent his summer writing a "Bayesian network toolbox" for Python, an open-source programming language. "I'm a pretty big fan of Google", he says. He has an interview scheduled with Microsoft, but "Google is the only big company that I would work at", he says. And if that doesn't work out, he now knows people in the open-source community, "and it's a lot less intimidating".
Ms Byron's comment on her own summer experiment is ______.
A.negative
B.biased
C.puzzling
D.enthusiastic
听力原文: Martin is a medical student. Every summer vacation he works as a guide for a travel agency. In order to get as many customers as possible, Martin prepared a speech to attract them. On the morning of the first day, when he saw a woman coming towards the door of tire agency, he immediately opened the door for her and began to describe the tour. "The bus leaves Fairfield at 9:30. It's air-conditioned and very comfortable. We first take you down to the old harbor. From there we drive along the coast and through an old residential area. At 12:30, we go to the Park Restaurant for a first-class meal. Then we go to the zoo in the park. From 3 till 5 we show you the shops in the old town, where you can buy traditional handicrafts, jewellery and pottery. We then go to the area where you can visit the natural history museum and the art gallery. Finally we come back along 8th Avenue, past the concert hall and theaters. You can count on a really wonderful day. "At last he stopped. The woman smiled and thanked him very much. Then she said she had lived in the town all her life and thought his description was very good. However, she only wanted to know what time the next bus left for Green Valley.

听力原文: My mother was a classic homemaker. When I think of her in those days, I see a woman in perpetual motion, making the beds, washing the dishes and putting dinner on the table precisely at six o'clock. I came home from school for lunch every day. While we ate, Mom and I listened to radio programs. My mother also found lots of what people now call "quality time" for my brothers and me. She didn't learn to drive until the early 1960s, so we walked everywhere. In the winter, she bundled us up on a sled and pulled us to the store. Then we held and balanced the groceries for the trip home. In the middle of hanging the wash on a clothesline in the backyard, she might help me practice my pitching or lie down on the grass with me to describe the cloud shapes overhead. One summer, she helped me create a fantasy world in a large cardboard box. We used mirrors for lakes and twigs for trees, and I made up fairy-tale stories for my dolls to act out. Another summer, she encouraged my younger brother Tony to pursue his dream of digging a hole all the way to China. She started reading to him about China and every day he spent time digging a hole next to our house. Occasionally, he found a chopstick or fortune cookie my mother had hidden there.
My mother was a typical housewife, who cared for her family.
A.正确
B.错误
