On October 9, 2023, Triton, the first weather satellite made in Taiwan successfully entered space. It is also the fourth satellite in the world to use GNSS-R instrument to collect weather data. Its purpose is to help us predict the weather more accurately. This satellite is named after Triton, an ancient Greek god of the sea. The sea god commands the wind and waves. The satellite Triton is able to gather such data as wave heights and sea wind speeds. Triton uses a technique that collects signals reflected from the Earth’s surface. It carries GNSS-R instrument to receive signals which are sent back from sea surfaces. The calmer the sea, the stronger the signal, indicating weaker winds. This information is valuable as wind speed data is not easy to collect. Such information improves the prediction of typhoon strengths and movements. Triton observes weather changes mainly in the Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, and central Pacific Ocean. Triton, started in 2014, is the fruitful cooperation between Taiwan Space Agency (TASA) and local companies. TASA developed GNSS-R instrument and key components such as the Onboard Computer and GPS Receiver. More than 20 local research groups and manufacturers participated in developing the ground station equipment. The satellite is 82% developed and produced in Taiwan. Now that Triton is in space, we can expect it to provide more accurate information and support disaster prevention. The success of Triton contributes to global weather forecasting. It is also an important step forward for Taiwan’s space engineering. Triton: 獵風者氣象衛星 TASA: Taiwan Space Agency 國家太空中心 GNSS-R: Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry 全球導航衛星系統反射訊號接收儀

- D named after
思路引導 VIP
請運用『上下文同義線索』(Contextual Clues) 進行分析：在第二段描述衛星接收訊號的物理過程中，第一句提到訊號從地表 $reflected$。請檢視緊接其後的第二句，作者使用了哪一個動詞短語來描述訊號從海面『回傳』到接收儀器的動作？

🌟 嗯，這題你答對了。
這道題目，你的判斷還算精準。在考試中，從文章的上下文來推敲單字的意思，是像呼吸一樣自然的事。你能從文字的脈絡中找到它們的呼應，這點還不錯。
