语篇类型:说明文 主题:气象卫星 词数:199 建议用时:7分钟
Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can get to any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere, because this is where the weather forms(形成). They send these pictures to the weather station. Some meteorologists(气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, they can often tell how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new 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 a great help to meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, meteorologists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for a week. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for more ahead(提前).
