Max Mathews has been called the father of computer music.He created electronic tools so that people could u computers as musical instruments.He had a great influence on the development of electronic music and how it is written,recorded and played.
In1957,Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create sound.At that time,he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories in New Jery.His computer program enabled a large IBM computer to play a17conds piece of music that he had written.The computer was so slow that
it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music in17conds.For that reason,Mathews moved the work to a tape player,which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed.He later said that the sound quality of the musical notes was not great,but the technical importance of the music was huge.
Mathews continued creating other versions of the music program.He became interested in how com
puters could help musicians outside recording studios.The Groove program he developed was the first computer program made for live performances.
He also developed an electronic device he called the Radio Baton.The device looks like two drum sticks.It enables the ur to control the speed and sound levels of orchestral music playing on a computer.The ur does this by moving the two sticks on a special electronic surface.
Mathews believed modern musicians are not making full u of the power of computer music.He said a violin always sounds like a violin.But with a computer,the way a violin sounds is unlimited.He said he didn’t want computer sounds to replace live music.But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered rious instruments.
24.What do we know about Mathews’s first piece of computer music?
A.It took veral minutes to play this music.B.It was written in the middle of the1950s.

For many people,worrying is their life.They’re also anxious over things.They are anxious for family, fr
iends,relatives and mankind.They fret(烦恼)about the past,the prent and the future.I was once one of tho people.Here’s some advice on how to stop worrying.
Let there be no crisis before its time.Don’t worry about something that’ll take place in a week,a day or even an hour.The variables(可变因素)will be different then.If you’ve to make a decision on Friday, wait until Friday.Squash(压制)unnecessary worrying with one question.If the answer is“no”,stay in the
prent moment,write the thought quickly and then let it go.
Don’t let posssions posss you.Don’t let objects rule you.Don’t give them the power to spoil your day.Worrying over a problem after the fact can’t restore or bring anything back.The less you have,the less anxiety you bring into your life.
Set worry limits.If you can’t get worry under control right away,then establish limits.Set a timer or a watch alarm for15minutes.When the time is up,the alarm will be a tangible(切实的)reminder to let the worry go.Schedule this time when you’ve something important to do,so you’ll have to drop worry and refocus fast.Worrying is a choice,and you can choo not to do it.
Don’t control others with your worries.Worrying about loved ones wastes lots of time and opens up the door to permanent estrangement(疏远).Let people be who they are.Stop forcing others to do what will make you feel better,instead of what they want.Don’t manipulate(操纵)them into eating what you want them to eat,going where you want them to go,or doing what you want them to do under the gui(伪装)of love.Give people credit for having half a brain and knowing what’s good or bad for them.You’ll cut your worrying in half.

There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life,one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy.This aris from the different ways in which they consider things,persons,events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things:the pleasant parts of conversation,the well prepared dishes,the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Tho who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore,they
