Правильные формы глаголов:

Katherine Johnson was born in 1918 in a small town in West Virginia, USA. Her father wanted his daughter to fulfil her potential – driving her more than 190 km so that she could continue her education. By the time she was 18, she had graduated from university with a degree in maths. After marriage, children and the sudden death of her husband, she got a job as a 'human computer' with NASA. In 1953, she had not been working there for long when she met two other women: Mary W Jackson and Dorothy Vaughan. It was on the basis of their calculations that several historical space missions happened. This is an even greater achievement since their careers began in the era of segregation in America, when African-American women had to work in a separate building from their white colleagues. The women faced constant and unfair discrimination and a lot of people would not believe they were equal to men. However, they consistently came up with solutions for problems more quickly than their male colleagues.
