Initially, humans had no choice but to write programs in machine language because other programming languages had not yet been invented. [分析] “have no choice but to”的意思是“别无他法,只好” [译文] 最初，人们只能使用机器语言编程序,因为其他语言还没有发明。 Notes 2. Because every program that is executed on a computer eventually must in the form of the computers machine language, a program called an assembler reads each of the instructions in mnemonic form and translates it into the machine language equivalent. [分析]全句为状语从句，主语为“a program”，谓语为“reads”和“translates”。在Because从句中，“that is executed”作为定语修饰“every program”。 [译文] 因为每个最终在计算机上执行的程序必须变成机器语言，汇编程序读取存储器的每个指令并把它翻译成机器指令。 Notes 3. The imperative paradigm is thus characterized by sequential execution of instructions, the use of variables that represent memory locations, and the use of assignment statements that change the values of these variables. [译文]这种范型的特点是：指令的顺序执行、表示内存位置的变量的使用和改变这些变量值的赋值语句的使用。 ? Notes 4. The algorithms that translate assembly-language instructions into machine code are very simple because assembly languages are very simple. [译文]因为汇编语言简单，所以把汇编语言翻译成机器语言的算法非常简单。 Notes 5. In the early days, the output of a compiler was an assembly-language version of the program, which then had to be run through an assembler to finally get the
