A pp science blgger surnamed Zheng, 25, knwn as the “Clud Cllectr” n the lifestyle platfrm Xiahngshu, initially started her accunt t share clud phts in 2022.
Zheng, wh enjys finding delight in recrding the beauty f daily life, cnsidered it a way t spread lvely mments t mre peple. “Cluds have always served as a surce f cmfrt fr me,” said Zheng based in Fujian.
Fr Zheng, ne f her mst unfrgettable clud-sptting experiences ccurred during a flight. It was the first time that she saw a special natural phenmenn called a “glry”, prduced by water drps in the air.

As a grwing number f nline users began t shw interest and raise questins, Zheng realized that she culd ffer mre science cntent abut clud sptting. S she started t learn mre by referring t specialized bks and cnsulting individuals with expertise in meterlgy (气象学).
Zheng has nw shared nearly 2000 pieces f ppular science cntent, including clud identificatin, frmatin, cmparisns f different clud types and weather-related knwledge.

Years after my art histry class, I remain insufferable at museums. “That’s definitely a Matisse,” I declare, citing brushwrk and clr. Smetimes I’m wrng, but ften I’m right.
It’s unsettling t learn that my hard-wn art appreciatin might be surpassed by an insect. In a recent study, hneybees — with brains the size f grass seeds — were shwn Picasss and Mnets paired side by side. Beneath each painting were tw cntainers: ne hlding sugar water, the ther empty. Bees culdn’t detect the reward until entering, but they learned t use the paintings as guides. Fr sme bees, reward always lay beneath Picass; fr thers, beneath Mnet. Thrugh repeated trials, bees learned t fly directly t the crrect cntainer. Remarkably, they perfrmed slightly abve chance even with previusly unseen painting pairs, demnstrating an ability t discriminate between artistic styles.
Humans, hwever, maintain distinct advantages. Research led by Liane Gabra revealed that art students culd perfectly attribute unknwn wrks t famus artists. Creative writing students similarly excelled at identifying bscure (费解的) passages by Hemingway r Dickens — a skill n hneybee has demnstrated. Mre impressively, students recgnized unseen creatins by peers acrss entirely different media. Writers identified each ther’s paintings; visual artists discerned authrs f pems r makers f clay pts.
While bees categrized visual patterns, crss-mdal recgnitin represents a fundamentally different capacity. Gabra argues that whether writing pems r building sculptures, we emply the same cgnitive framewrk — structured by cnsistent mental patterns, shaped by cmmn experiences, and expressing cherent ideas. Cnsequently, ur techniques and preccupatins in ne dmain inevitably “ut” as in anther.
The mechanism remains unknwn. Researchers attempted t cntrl fr subject matter — instructing surfing enthusiasts t avid marine themes — but what f subtler bsessins? Crrelatin cannt establish causatin.
My fundamental questin cncerns nn-artists wh claim n distinctive style: D their creatins equally reflect wrldview? Perhaps medicre (平庸的) art resembles ther medicrity, while truly gd art remains uniquely itself.
8. The authr describes the bee experiment in Paragraph 2 mainly t .
A. highlight a significant scientific discvery
B. intrduce a new thery abut insect intelligence
C. present a cncrete example f pattern recgnitin
D. set up a cntrast with human abilities discussed later
9. Why des the authr think humans still have the edge?
A. Because we can learn frm trials.
B. Because we can discriminate styles.
C. Because we can categrize patterns.
D. Because we can transfer ur experiences.
10. What des the underlined wrd “ut” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Expse.B. Assist.C. Beat.D. Trick.
11. What might be the best title fr the passage?
A. Will Bees Beat Humans?B. Hw Will Yu View a View?
C. Why Gd Art Wrks Wnders?D. What Makes Hemingway Hemingway?
D
On the streets f Manhattan and Washingtn, D. C., in neighbrhds in Seul and parks in Paris, ginkg (银杏) trees are lsing their leaves in reactin t the first gust f cld winter air. This leaf drp, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with glden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are dcumenting evidence f the event happening later and later, a pssible indicatin f climate change. But the stry f ginkgs is nt the familiar ne f human carelessness with nature.
Thanks t fssils fund in Nrth Dakta, scientists fund a ginkg has genetically similar ancestrs dating back 170 millin years t the Jurassic Perid. “It almst went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it arund the wrld. It’s such a great evlutinary and cultural stry,”says Peter Crane, a ginkg expert.
One thery fr the decline f the ginkg species began 130 millin years ag, when flwering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted mre pllinatrs (传粉者) than ginkgs.“It’s pssible that ginkgs were elbwed ut f the way,” says Crane. Already cmpeting t survive, ginkgs began t disappear during a time f glbal cling that began arund 66 millin years ag. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ag, the remaining survivrs were fund in China.
Ginkg trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed thrugh their bdy and grew.” Crane says. Thse same seeds may have helped ginkg find favr with humans 1,000 years ag. Once cleaned f their uter layer, ginkg seeds are safe t eat. It’s then, when the trees had lng since disappeared elsewhere, that peple in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgs spread acrss the wrld. Nw it’s seemingly naturally resistant t insects and high levels f air pllutin.
Crane isn’t wrried abut its future, thugh: The ppularity f the species will help it survive. “Thugh its status in the wild may be difficult t access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely t ever g extinct.” he says.
12. What may have caused the further delay f ginkg’s leaf drp?
A. The clder weather in winter.
B. The prtectin frm city cuncils.
C. The glbal warming phenmenn.
D. The careless interactin with humans.
13. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
A. The reasns why ginkgs almst died ut.
B. The advantages f ginkgs ver ther plants.
C. The theries f experts fr multiplying ginkgs.
D. The cmpetitin between varius flwering plants.
14. What might have cntributed t ginkgs survival?
A. Their unpleasant smell.B. Their eatable seeds.
C. The natural evlutin.D. The careful planting.
15. Hw des Crane feel abut ginkgs’ future?
A. Optimistic.B. Negative.C. Uncertain.D. Cncerned.

He hired a painter t cver up all that peach with a nice, nt-flashy grey. Dad was fnd f grey anyway.
And s, we arrived at the Saturday mrning when Dad sprang ut f bed as bright-eyed as ever, felt restless, and lked arund fr smething that needed ding. Mm was sund asleep, as usual. My brther and I slept in a bit. There was nbdy arund t keep an eye n Dad and whatever he decided t d next.
S, Dad decided that the prch (门廊) n ur newly grey huse needed a fresh cat f paint. He headed ff t the hardware stre t get paint and painting supplies. He did nt tell any f us. Nr did he invite any f us alng.
We’ve never been sure what happened at the hardware stre. Did he ask fr advice? Did he study clur samples? Did anther shpper help him chse? Wh knws? But we’re all pretty sure that Dad had n clue what clur he was painting the wden prch. My brther and I wke up, wndered where Dad was, and went lking fr him.
