18.Explain the Universe In Your Sleep! Cosmology@Home is a new distributed computing project that tries to use off-duty home computers to unravel the secrets of the universe. Steve Mirsky reports. For more info, go to cosmologyathome.org -------------------- Turning off the computer at night can save energy. But if you’re going to leave it on, here’s something you might want to do with it—figure out the secrets of the universe. Distributed computing projects spread difficult problems out among numerous computers, sometimes around the world. The SETI@Home project is a well-known example, which searches radio telescope data for evidence of extraterrestrial signals. Another project looks for a special class of prime numbers called Mersenne primes. Now there’s a new distributed computing project called Cosmology@Home. The idea is that your unused computer power can help in cutting-edge cosmology research. The computers come up with predictions based on different theoretical models of the universe that have different parameters. These predictions can then be compared with the actual data that astronomers generate—data such as the acceleration of the universe, the way galaxies are distributed, even the way the cosmic microwave background radiation fluctuates. The models that make predictions that agree with the real data are probably the ones you can trust. The project is funded by the National Science Foundation. For more info, go to cosmologyathome.org 明天中午听写！~~吼吼！~~继续加油！~
求解？？？ TPO13-Conversation2 When you come in, you sign your name on the list and I signed the room number or if you call that event that it attended tell you your room number, if you forget, just come in and take a look at the list. The videos are over there. 哪位童鞋能翻译一下吗？
Turning off the computer at night can save energy, but if you are going to leave it (on), here is something you (might) want to do with it----Figure out the secrets of universe. Distributed computing projects spread difficult problems out among numerous computers sometimes around the world. The SETI@Home project is a (well-known) example, which searches (radio) telescope data for evidence of extraterrestrial signal. Another project looks for special class of prime numbers called Mersenne Prime. Now, there is a new distributed computing project called Cosmology at home The idea is that your unused power can help in(cutting-edge前沿的）cosmology research. The computers come up with predictions based on different (theoretical) models (of the universe) that have different (parameters参数). These predictions can then be compared with the actual data that astronomer generate--data such as the (acceleration) of the universe, the way galaxies are distributed, even the way the cosmic microwave background radiation fluctuates. The models (that make) predictions that agree with the real date are probably the ones you can trust. The project is funded by the National Science (Fundation).

这句话好像有点问题.我猜了一下意思,大概是这样:
你进来的时候,在单子上签名,and I signed the room number我的理解是我已经在单子上写下了房间号码.或者你给那个活动方打电话,让他们告诉你你的房间号码.如果你忘记了,那么就直接近来看一下单子.视频在那里.

楼主
，句子插入提两个，不太符合常态呀！）
