predict volcanic eruptions and monitor airquality.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 gaseslike 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 produceand 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

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.DOn March 9, 2022, two manatees (海牛) arrived at the Aquarium's off-site Animal

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.17Renting 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
