【选词片段】

Catherine: Well, I was just fixing my three babies some plates.

Johnson: May I help?

Catherine: Sure. Ah, for salad!

Johnson: Pastor mentioned you’re a “computer” at NASA

Catherine: Yes!

Johnson: What’s that entail?

Catherine: We calculate the mathematics necessary to enable launch and landing for the space program.

Johnson: Pretty heady stuff!

Catherine: Yes, it is.

Johnson: They let women handle that sort of...Yes, Not what I mean!

Catherine: What do you mean?

Johnson: I am...just surprised something so taxing.

Catherine: Mr. Johnson! If...you at the quit talking right now?

Johnson: I’m not meaning any disrespect.

Catherine: I’ll have you know I was the first Negro female student at west virgina university Graduate school. On any given day, I analyze the manometer levels for air displacement friction and velocity and compute over 10,000 calculations my cosine, square root and lately Analytic Goemetry. By the way, there are 20 bright highly capable Negro women in the west computing Group and we’re proud to be doing our part for the country. So yes, They let women do some things at NASA, Mr. Johnson. And it’s not because we wear skirts...It’s because we wear glasses. Have a good day.
