carbondioxide（CO2）levels in the ocean.It is believed to be the first time that such a device（装 置）has been used purposely to test CO2 levels.The device,which the team also calls a glider,is designed to go down to 1,000 meters indeep ocean areas and can operate for weeks at a time.The purpose of the research is to provide scientists with data（数 据）about how climatechange is influencing the oceans chemistry.The self-swimming drone was placed in the Gulfof Alaska this spring.Reporters from The Associated Press recently joined researchers on aboat in Alaskas Resurrection Bay to see the drone in action.The team says the project could be a major step forward in measuring（测 量）theenvironmental health of oceans.The scientists are most interested in levels of oceanacidification（酸 性）.This happens when CO2 emissions（排 放）in the air make their way intothe ocean.Ocean acidification can harm or kill some kinds of sea life.Scientists have connected CO2 emissions with global（全 球）warming caused by humanactivities.In a way,oceans have given humans a helping hand by taking in（吸 收）some of theCO2.If there were no oceans9 uptake,there would be much more CO2 in the air.This wouldtrap more of the suns heat and further warm the Earth.“But the problem now is that the ocean is changing its chemistry because of this uptake Jsaid team member Claudine Hauri.One of the best ways to measure ocean acidification is to collect CO2 measurements.Until now,these collections were mostly done from ships or with devices floating at theocean surface or on the ocean floor.30.What is probably this passage?A.An advertisement.B.Part of a news report.C.Part of a science fiction.D.A text from a chemistry textbook.31.What do we know about a glider?A.It must be used together with floating devices.B.It is used to measure ocean acidification.C.It is used to stop CO2 from entering the ocean.D.It is used to measure CO2 levels in the air.32.What does the underlined word“uptake“in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?A.The act of covering an area.B.The act of slowing something down.C.The act of taking something in.D.The act of killing or harmingsomething.33.What is troubling the scientists?A.The underwater drone cant swim by itselflB.The drone can only last one week at a time.C.Oceans are stopping taking in CO2 from the air.D.Too much CO2 is making its way into oceans.Being sad or in a low mood is a normal（正 常 的）part of life.Many people feel downfrom time to time.For example,when people face challenging events in their lives,such asfinancial（经 济 的）difficulty or major changes,its common to feel down.But in most casesthe bad feelings slowly disappear.As for depression（抑 郁 症）,however,the bad mood lasts for weeks,months,or everlonger because it is a mental（精 神 的）illness.As the World Health Organization（WHO）noted,depression is a mood disorder.It shows in different ways,including loss of interest innormal activities and feelings of low self-worth.It often lasts for a long time and greatlyharms a persons ability at work or school or in the daily life.People with depression usuallydont like to talk about their problems with others.More seriously,depression may even leadto the act of killing oneself.Depression is not just a bout（一 阵）of sadness or a sign of weakness,and you cant justsimply stop feeling depressed.said the health news website.But depression is not a persons problem.Its also more common than most people think.It is hurting about 280 million people around the world,according to WHO.Though depression is worrying,we dont have to be afraid of it.Depression can betreated by getting professional（专 业 的）help,taking medicine or a mixed treatment of both.In fact,when you begin to feel the danger of depression,you can try to deal with it early byyourself.Listening to music,doing some sports and drawing some pictures might help youfeel better.Another useful way is talk therapy.When we are attacked by a low mood,having aconversation with others is of great help.Being honest about how we feel does not make usweak,it makes us human.34.Who is most probably experiencing depression?A.Lily,who is going to have
