The members of Duke University’s computer programming team had solved only one problem in the world finals of the International Collegiate Programming Contest. The winning team, from Saratov State University in Russia, solved six puzzles over the course of the grueling five-hour contest. Afterward, Duke coach Owen Astrachan tried to cheer up his team by pointing out that they were among "the best of the best" student programmers in the world. Edwards, 20, still distraught, couldn’t resist a self-deprecating dig: "We’re the worst of the best of the best. "
For young Americans, a computing career isn’t the draw even a few years ago. Never mind that experienced programmers make upwards of $ 100, 000 and that the brainiest of them are the objects of heated bidding wars. Students fear that if they become programmers they’ll lose their jobs to counterparts in India and China. Analysts say those worries are overblown: Programmers with leadership and business skills will do just fine. But the message isn’t getting through. Then there’s the thrill factor, or lack thereof. Given the opportunity to make a mint on Wall Street or land a comfortable academic job, many math and science students are turning away from software. "I couldn’t really get excited about sitting in front of a computer and just writing programs," says Duke junior Brandon Levin, who has taken computer courses but is majoring in math and plans a career in academia.
Why did Duke coach say his team members were "the best of the best" student programmers?
选项
A、He tried to encourage them.
B、His team did really well in the contest.
C、They ranked second only after Russian team.
D、They were one of the two home teams among the 12 highest finishers.
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据文章第一段:来自俄罗斯的团队获胜,他们完成了6道难题。后来,杜克大学的教练为了使他的学生们振作起来,称他们是编程领域中高手中的高手。故选A。
