Nicknamed NACHOS, which is short for the Nanosat Atmospheric Chemistry HyperspectralObservation System, was launched from Virginia on Feb.19 aboard a NG resupply mission to theInternational Space Station.NACHOS will soon then be placed aboard a tiny CubeSat satellitepositioned about 480 km above Earth, where NASA hopes it will be able to detect traces of gases like SO2and NO2in the atmosphere. “A volcano just waking up may emit SO2before there is any detectable seismic (地震的)activity ,”Los Alamos National Laboratory remote sensing researcher Steve Love explained in a newsrelease.“That gives us a chance to identify a potentially erupting volcano before it actually blows." If successful, NACHOS will be the smallest and highest-resolution instrument of its kind inorbit.NASA says that could lead to new space-based systems that are able to monitor air quality forharmful gases in neighborhoods and individual power plants.‘‘When we recognize that these gasesare present and can localize their sources, we have the opportunity to take action and minimizenegative health outcomes," said Love, who is a task lead on the NACHOS project. In the past, NASA has created satellites to observe these kinds of gases.But Love said thosetraditionallyrequired high.resolution images and sensitive instruments that were costly to produce and operate.Smaller devices , like NACHOS, could enable a wider use of the technologyat a muchlower cost.If it proves successful, the technology could also be used in Earth-based systems, NASAsays.Love and his team expect NACHOS to orbit our planet for about a year.“That will give usenough time to test our instrument design and gather enough test data to ensure our technologyconcept is reasonable ,”Love said.“Morepower and less weight set NACHOS apart and make it anexcellent candidate for future atmospherictrace gas missions.” 8.Why was the instrument NACHOS launched? A.To control emissionof SO2and NO2. B.To orbit our planet for about a year. C.To help predict the volcano eruptions. D.To resupply the InternationalSpace Station. 9.What does the underlined word“That ”in paragraph 3 refer to? A.The launch of NACHOS. B.The detectable seismic activity. C.The gas emissions of volcanoes. D.The technology concept of the design. 10.What will be done once the harmful gases are detected? A.To collect the harmful gases. B.To find a shelter in power plants. C.To change the orbit of the instrument. D.To try to reduce the bad effect on health. 11.Which of the following might Love agree with about NACHOS? A.It is highly cost.B.It needs more power. C.It is a promising instrument.D.It has proved the technology successful. D On March 9, 2022, two manatees (海牛) arrived at the Aquarium's off-site Animal CareFacility from SeaWorld Orlando for ongoing care until they are healthy enough for release back intothe wild. The orphaned young manatees ，an approximately 160 -pound male and 175 -pound female,were rescued in December and have received rehabilitative( 康复的) care.at SeaWorld Orlandosince then.The female was only 124 pounds when she was found suffering from cold stress in BlueSprings, Florida.The male was found near a Port St.John, Florida power plant with a deceasedfemale, most likely his mother, and was only 126 pounds.The two are now stable and have movedto the next phase of their recovery. In 2021，1,101 manatees died, primarily from starvation due to loss of seagrass in the IndianRiver Lagoon, a result of pollution and ongoing water quality issues.As of March 2022, over 400manatees have already died.Other challenges manatees face include cold stress and boat strikes. The MRP is a cooperative group of communities dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, release ,and monitoring of manatees.As part of this partnership, Georgia Aquarium designated additionalrehabilitation areas at its Animal Care Facility, which offers new life support systems, access to medical care and monitoring，and large enough space.This facility is an additional recovery carespace for manatees until they are healthy enough for release， and for other animals in need ofrehabilitation or quarantine(隔离).The manatees being cared for by Georgia Aquarium will not be on display to the public. Vice president of zoological operations at Georgia Aquarium, Eric Gaglione, explained theAquarium' s involvement with manatees ,“Georgia Aquarium has been involved in manatee researchand health assessmentsfor several years, but this is the first time we have manatees under our care.We are honored to join our colleagues in the Manatee Rescue and Rehabilitation Partnership andgive these two orphaned manatees a fighting chance.Manatees are in crisis, and it is our role as aresponsible aquarium(水族馆) to do everything we can to change their fate in the wild.” Once the manatees have reached sufficient size and become healthy enough to survive on theirown，they will be returned to the care facility at SeaWorld Orlando before being released back intothe wild. 12.What was the matter with the female manatee? A.She was in lack of food. B.She was attacked by a shark. C.She was struck by ships. D.She was dying because of cold. 13.What mainly caused the manatees endangered according to the passage? A.The epidemic deseases of sea animals. B.The environmental pollution of the sea. C.People' s killing for commercial purpose. D.The great gene changes of the manatees. 14.Whatcan we know about Georgia Aquarium? A.It is an organization raising mantees for sale. B.It is an organization dealing with ocean pollution. C.It is a place where manatees are shown to the public. D.It is a place where manatees are cared before being released. 15.What can we learn from Eric Gaglione' s words?

D.Georgia Aquarium will release the two manatees into the wild. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting into a new place to live is a very exciting time.16 Having a place to call your owngives you a great feeling of independence.The question that arises when looking for an apartment orhome to live in is,"“Is it better to rent or lease.”Both options have advantages and disadvantages.17 Renting is a simple process that usually does not require the person to stay in that space for aspecific length of time.In California, and in most states, this is called a month-to-month rentalagreement.18The property owner is also likely to ask for a security or cleaning deposit, orboth.The advantage of a month-to-month rental is that the renter can get out of the agreement bysimply giving the owner a one-month notice to vacate(搬离).19If the owner asks the renter toleave, all he or she has to do is lo ask the renter to vacate in 30 days. A lease worksa bit differently.It' s usually signed for one year, soboth the renter and thelandlord agree to a pre-determined length of time the renter will occupythe unit.20After that,it works much like renting.There are consequences on the partof both parties if the lease isterminated(终止) early though, so it is better to wait your lease out than to terminate it early. A.The same applies to the owner. B.This is especially true if the person is a first-time renter. C.More information about renting and lease can be easily found on internet. D.The best way to make this decision is to base it on your own personal situation. E.The new renter has to ensure the flat is in good condition when the time is due. F.A landlord will generally require the new renter to pay two months of rent in advance. G.The renter signs a contract agreeing not to move out of the home for the one-year period. 第二部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Deirdre Taylor, a nurse ,is working on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic and finally21 with the firefighter, who pulled her out of a burning building nearly 40 years ago.

That was how, on the fourth and longest day of the race, the runner Mauro encountered asevere sandstorm that turned him around and sent him wildly off course. He spent eight hours waiting out the storm, huddled in a sand dune.The next morning, heexpected to see rescuers heading his way.Instead, all he saw was desert in all directions.“After running for about four hours, I climbed up a dune and still couldn't see anything," he said. “That's when I knew I had a big problem.” A search party was organized to find Mauro, but rescuers had no idea he had been so far offcourse.Twice a helicopter circled over his head, and twice they didn't see him wildly wavingatthem from below.He sent up his only flare (照明弹) and even set his backpack on fire hoping tocatch their attention,but it was no use. When Mauro' s water ran out, he began drinking his own urine.He found amarabout shrine, anancient building that once served as a tomb.He lo shelterfrom the sun'srays there, drinkingthe blood of bats.
