getinformation on carbon dioxide（CO2）levels in the ocean.lt is believedto be the first time that such a device（装置）has been usedpurposely to test CO2 levels.The device,which the team also calls a glider,is designed to godown to 1，000 meters in deep ocean areas and can operate for weeks ata time.The purpose of the research is to provide scientists with data（数据）about how climate change is influencing the oceanschemistry.The self-swimming drone was placed in the Gulf of Alaskathis spring.Reporters from The Associated Press recently joinedresearchers on a boat in Alaskas Resurrection Bay to see the drone inaction.The team says the project could be a major step forward inmeasuring（测量）the environmental health of oceans.The scientistsare most interested in levels of ocean acidification（酸性）.This happenswhen CO2 emissions（抖 E放）in the air make their way into theocean.Ocean acidification can harm or kill some kinds of sea life.Scientists have connected CO2 emissions with global（全球）warming caused by human activities.In a way,oceans have given humans a helping hand by taking in（吸收）some of the CO.If there were no oceans uptake there wouldbe much more CO2 in the air.This would trap more of the suns heat andfurther warm the Earth.But the problem now is that the ocean is changing its chemistrybecause of this uptake,said team member Claudine Hauri.One of the best ways to measure ocean acidification is to collectCO2 measurements.Until now,these collections were mostly done fromships or with devices floating at the ocean surface or on the oceanfloor.(1)What is probably

a low mood is a normal(正常的)part oflife.Many people feel down from time to time.For example,whenpeople face challenging events in their lives,such as financial（经济的）difficulty or major changes,its

greatly harms a persons ability at work orschool or in the daily life.People with depression usually dont like totalk about their problems with others.More seriously,depression mayeven lead to the act
