They’re range,they’re rbts and they’re capable f sailing the high seas withut human interventin.
On Tuesday the Natinal Oceanic and Atmspheric Administratin (NOAA) launched a pair f Saildrnes(海洋无人机) in Pacific Nrthwest waters fr the first time.Their summer lng sailing jurney will stretch frm Vancuver Island t Califrnia.The Saildrne peratrs will cllect data t help set future fishing seasns.The gvernment wants t see whether seaging rbts can extend fishery surveys nw perfrmed by expensive manned ships.
Nra Chen frm NOAA said,“The 23-ft lng seaging rbts can fllw a remtely prgrammed curse fr up t a year at a time.And they dn’t require any fuel.We use wind and slar pwer t drive the sensrs.” He added,“It means that we’re able t g t places where we dn’t really want t send peple,and g int weather that we really dn’t want anyne ever t be in,and be able t send measurements back.”
The primary missin is t investigate the species and the number f fish in existence and the places where they are.Larry Hufnagle,scientist f NOAA Fisheries in Seattle,said a traditinal big NOAA research ship-based survey csts arund $25,000 per day.By cmparisn,ne Saildrne csts $2,500 per day.
“It culd be a significant saving,” Hufnagle said.“But like anything else,there is a trade-ff in what yu get and what yu dn’t get.On the manned ship,we have limited time.It takes a lt f peple.We spend a fair amunt f mney.But there is ne thing the Saildrne can’t d that humans can:cast a net t catch and psitively identify the fish detected belw.The Saildrnes are ging t give us additinal data,nt replacement data.”
Nra Chen said Saildrne,a venture capital-backed cmpany based in Alameda,Califrnia,expects t launch a ttal f 11 f its seaging rbts t survey different waterbdies fr NOAA this year.The Bering and Arctic seas,Castal Califrnia and the Gulf f Mexic will be the lcatins f additinal missins.

1.C 空前提到“当我们遇到无家可归的人时,我们大部分人可能会避免眼神交流,而且走得更快点”,空后提到“他或她有怎样的故事?他们露宿街头多久了?”,这些是人们在路遇无家可归者时可能会思考的问题。C项“但是,你也可能会思索他们的境遇”,可承前启后,符合语境。
