THE LIFE OF AI}A LOVELACE

Ada had an important influence on computer history because she predicted the modern computer. In 1980, when American scientists invented a new computer language, they called it ADA. Ada died on 27 November, 1852, at the age of 36. Ada married Lord Lovelace in 1835 and they had three children. After that, she worked with Babbage on his new calculating machine. ln '1843, she wrote an article about it with a plan for calculating numbers. This plan was the first computer program. Ada Byron was born in London on 10 December, 18'15. She was the daughter of the famous British poet, Lord Byron and his wife, Annabella. Five weeks later, her parents separated. Her mother didn't want Ada to be a poet like her fathet so she taught her Maths and Science. Ada was a Maths oenius but she also had her father's imagination. In 1828, when she was only thifteen, Ada designed a flying machine. Then, when she was eighteen, Ada met the inventor, Charles Babbage. She helped him with his work and he had a bio influence on her life.

takes time to find a good site

and it's important to

be very sure about what you're looking for. So, I guess, it can take a long trme at first. Plus you have to wait for your order. Last time l bought a coat online and it came in four days. Another thing is that yau have to pay for the postage and if you ltuy from abroad also for tmport tax. So it sometines means that online shopping can be more expensive than regular shopping, But I still like it this way!'
So is it a good idea to buy clothes online? The best answer probably is: buy one item of clothing on the web and then decide for yourself!

An animal is endangered when there are not many of its kind alive and it could easily die out. Animals have always died out naturally in the past" Dinosaurs lived on Earth for a long time before they suddenly disappeared about 65 million years ago. But nowadays we don't look after our animals very well, and they are dying out fast * about 1,000 times faster than before. Over 12,000 different types of animal are now in danger. There are only about 1,000 pandas and 6,000 tigers left in the world.
There are two main reasons for this - pollution and population growth. Pollution is affecting animals very badly. People are also cutting down the rainforests, and building houses and roads, so animals have nowhere to live and can't find food.
