They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere, because this is where the weather forms. They sen
5、d these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new
6、pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are
7、a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.6. Satellites travel in s
8、pace.A. T B. F7. We use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere because the weather forms there.A. T B. F8. Meteorologists forecast the weather before they received satellite pictures.A. T B. F9. Maybe well soon be able to forecast the weather for seven days or even longer.A. T B.

The scientists, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can
11、 be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientists knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of con
12、ditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who dev
13、eloped the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einsteins ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculatio
14、ns that may test his investigations.11. What makes a scientist according to the passage? A. The tools he uses. B. The way he uses his tools.C. His ways of learning. D.
