1.电脑软件—格蕾丝•霍珀

After joining the US Navy during the World War II, Rear Admiral Grace Hopper was assigned to work on a new computer, called the Mark 1.

二战期间加入美国海军后，海军少将格蕾丝•霍珀被指派开发新电脑。这个电脑名为马克1。

It wasn't long before she was at the forefront of computer programming in the 1950s.

不久后，她便成为20世纪50年代计算机编程的领头人物。

She was behind the compiler, which could translate instructions into code that computers can read, making programming quicker and ultimately revolutionizing how computers worked.

霍珀是编程器背后的英雄。编程器可以将指示转换为电脑可读写的代码，加速编程进程，最终改变电脑的运行方式。

Hopper also helped popularized the term "de-bugging" that we still use on computers programs today, after a moth was removed from inside her machine.

霍珀在自己的电脑里抓出一只飞蛾后，便开始帮助推广电脑调试故障排除的功能，这个功能的说法“de-bugging”至今仍在广泛使用。

"Amazing Grace", as she was known, continued working with computers until she retired from the navy as its oldest serving officer, aged 79.

被称为“神奇格蕾丝”的霍珀一直从事计算机领域的工作，到79岁才退休，是当时美国海军最老的现役军官。
