Have you ever paid close attention to a cloud and noticed its ever- changing forms If not, you could be missing out on something quite wondrous.
Cloud spotting doesn't require much. Sometimes, it can be an invitation to be marveled by something so common that we' ve become blind to it. Or you can go deeper, trying to make sense of the sky by learning the different cloud types.
A pop science blogger surnamed Zheng,25. known as the" Cloud Collector"on the lifestyle platform Xiaohongshu, initially started her account to share cloud photos in 2022.
Zheng, who enjoys finding delight in recording the beauty of daily life, considered it a way to spread lovely moments to more people." Clouds have always served as a source of comfort for me,"said Zheng based in Fujian.
For Zheng, one of her most unforgettable cloud- spotting experiences occurred during a flight. It was the first time that she saw a special natural phenomenon called a" glory", produced by water drops in the air. It appeared as a hazy light point in the middle of a circular rainbow halo(光环)“It was such a surprise,” Zheng recalled.
As a growing number of online users began to show interest and raise questions, Zheng realized
高三英语第3页，共 8页
that she could offer more science content about cloud spotting. So she started to learn more by referring to specialized books and consulting individuals with expertise in meteorology (气象学).
Zheng has now shared nearly 2000 pieces of popular science content, including cloud identification, formation, comparisons of different cloud types and weather-related knowledge. Her account now has over 2+0,000 followers on Xiaohongshi, and there are five group chats on the platform where thousands of users share their daily cloud-watching experiences.
Looking ahead, Zheng has plans to hold several gallery exhibitions“The first round of exhibitions will be in Xiamen in Fujian and in Chengdu in Sichuan,” Zheng said, adding that she's gathering more cloud photos and the unique stories behind them. By doing this, she hopes to inspire more people to appreciate the beauty of the ' gentle white giants' in the sky.
24. Why was Mrs. Zheng called“ cloud collector”
A. She discovered how clouds changed.
B. She is an enthusiast of cloud-斑ting.
C. She was very bored and wanted to find happiness.
D. She created a social media account to share cloud photos.
25. According to the text, how is a“glory” formed
A. It is merely an optical illusion.
B. It is created by human-made sources.
C. It is generated by water droplets in the air.
D. It is caused by the reflection of airplane lights.
26 What kind of person is Mrs. Zheng
A. Creative and straightforward B. Curious and life-loving
C. Observant and knowledgeable D Patient and far-sighted
27. What can we learn from the text
A Cloud spotting is a difficult hobby to start.
B. Zheng had founded exhibitions in multiple cities.
C. Zheng systematically snared cloud science content.
D. Many users actively shared cloud-watching experiences.
C
Years after my art history class, I remain insufferable at museums.“ That's definitely a Matisse,”I declare, citing brushwork and color. Sometimes I'm wrong, but often I'm right.
It's unsettling to learn that my hard-won art appreciation might be surpassed by an insect. In a recent study, honeybees—— with brains the size of grass seeds—— were snow n Pieassos and Monets paired side by side. Beneath each painting were two containers: one holding sugar water, the other empty. Bees couldn't detect the reward until entering, but they learned to use the paintings as guides.For some bees, reward always lay beneath Picasso; for others, beneath Monet. Through repeated trials, bees learned to fly directly to the correct container. Remarkably, they performed slightly above chance even with previously unseen painting pairs, demonstrating an ability to discriminate between artistic styles.
Humans, however, maintain distinct advantages. Research led by Liane. Gabora revealed that art students could perfectly attribute unknown works to famous artists. Creative writing students similarly excelled at identifying obscure (费解的) passages by Hemingway or Dickens———a skill no honeybee has demonstrated. More impressively, students recognized unseen creations by peers across entirely different media. Writers identified each other's paintings; visual artists discerned authors of poems or makers of clay pots.
While bees categorized visual patterns, cross-modal recognition represents a fundamentally different capacity. Gabora argues that whether writing poems or building sculptures, we employ the same cognitive framework—— structured by consistent mental patterns, shaped by common

experiences, and expressing coherent ideas. Consequently, our techniques and preoccupations in one domain inevitably“out” as in another.
The mechanism remains unknown. Researchers attempted to control for subject matter— instructing surfing enthusiasts to avoid marine themes—— but what of subtler obsessions Correlation cannot establish causation.
My fundamental question concerns non- artists who claim no distinctive style: Do their creations equally reflect worldview Perhaps mediocre（平庸的） art resembles other mediocrity, while truly good art remains uniquely itself.
28. The author describes the bee experiment in Paragraph 2 mainly to .
A. highlight a significant scientific discovery
B. introduce a new theory about insect intelligence
C. present a concrete example of pattern recognition
D. set up a contrast with human abilities discussed later
29. Why does the author think humans still have the edge
A. Because we can learn from trials.
B. Because we can discriminate styles.
C. Because we can categorize patterns.
D Because we can transfer our experiences.
30. What does the underlined word“out” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Expose. B. Assist. C. Beat. D. Trick.
31. What might be the best title for the passage
A. Will Bees Beat Humans B. How Will You View a View
C Why Good Art Works Wonders D. What Makes Hemingway Hemingway
D
On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D. C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks inParis, ginkgo（银杏） trees are losing their leaves in reaction to the first gust of cold winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with golden, fan- shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indration of climate change. But the story of ginkgos is not the familiar one of human carelessness with nature.
Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170 million years to the Jurassic Period.“It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It's such a great evolutionary and cultural story,”says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert.
One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos.“It's possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive,ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago.By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.
Ginkgo trees are smelly.“My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things.They then passed through their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It's then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world.Now it's seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.
Crane isn't worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive.“Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it's a plant that's unlikely to ever go extinct.” he says.
32. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo's leaf drop
高三英语 第5页，共8页
A. The colder weather in winter.
B. The protection from city. councils.
C The global warming phenomenon.
D. The careless interaction with humans.
33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A The reasons why ginkgos almost died out.
B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants.
C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos.
D. The competition between various tlowering plants.
34. What might have contributed to ginkgos survival
A. Their unpleasant smell. B. Their eatable seeds
C The natural evolution. D The careful planting.
35. How does Crane feel about ginkgos' future
A. Optimistic. B. Negative. C. Uncertain. D. Concerned.

The Unsung Power of Routine
In a world that often glorifies constant change and novelty, the value of routine is frequently overlooked. Yet, a well- crafted daily routine can be a powerful tool for personal growth,produceuvity, and well- being. 36 It provides a framework within which we can thrive,helping us to balance work, rest, an a self- care.
A morning routine, for instance, sets the tone for the day. 37 Whether it's a few minutes of meditation, a brisk walk, or a nutritious breakfast, these small actions can have a profound impact on our mindset and energy levels. By starting the day with intention, we are better equipped to handle the challenges that come our way.
Of course, a routine doesn't mean rigidity. 38 It should be flexible enough to accommodate unexpected events and personal growth. For example, if you find that a particular activity in your routine is no longer serving you, don't be afraid to adjust it. The key is to have a core set of practices that anchor you and provide a sense of stability.
A consistent sleep routine is another crucial aspect. 39 Going to bed and waking up at the same time each day helps to regulate our body's internal clock, leading to better sleep quality and overall health. It also allows us to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the day ahead.
In the end, a routine is not about restricting freedom but about creating a foundation for a fulfilling life. 40 By embracing the power of routine, we can unlock our potential and live with greater purpose and joy.
A. It can include activities that nourish our minds, bodies, and souls.
B. It gives us a sense of control and predictability in an otherwise chaotic world.
C. A good night's sleep is essential for cognitive functions and emotional well- being.
D. It's about finding rhythm in the repetition and using it as a springboard for growth.
E. It should evolve as we grow and change, reflecting our current needs and priorities.
F Many successful people attribute their achievements to their well- structured daily routines.
G. Establishing a regular exercise routine can also have numerous benefits for both physical and mental health.

The village homes sit quietly in the mist, their white walls and black roofs standing out amid different oranges and 56 (red) of the autumn trees. The reflection of the sunlight reminds viewers of the Impressionists’ approach 57 light and shadow, yet the stillness of the colors and the lines is altogether Eastern in its charm. 58 (title)“Autumn Haze”, the painting is the work of Lin Fengmian, one of the masters of 20th century art.
Lin's artistic career began in the southern city of Meizhou, 59 he learned to paint by copying works from the“Manual of the Mustard Seed Garden,” which by then 60 (be)a required text for Chinese children studying art.

Contemporary Western artists had been incorporating elements of Eastern art from 62 very beginning. Impressionist master Claude Monet and Cubist master Pablo Picasso both paintedEastern-styled ladies in“La Japonaise” and“Women of Algiers” 63 (respective), whileVincent van Gogh copied paintings of plum blossoms.

Here are a few things you need to know about my dad. First, he was a slightly impatient kind of a guy. If he wanted something done, he wanted it done NOW, if not sooner. Second, you need to know that Dad was an early riser. Every single day. No exceptions. No excuses. Work or no work.Holidays or vacation days, there was my father, up-and-ready to go Oh, and you should know thatMom was a night owl, up late watching a late movie. a wrestling match.
One more thing about my dad. He was color-blind. That usually doesn't matter. And he was a fairly conservative kind of person. For instance, he bought our new home out in the country and objected immediately to the stucco (灰泥) being a pale peach color. Way too “flashy” for Dad. He hired a painter to cover up all that peach with a nice, not-flasty gray. Dad was fond of gray anyway.
And so, we arrived at the Saturday morning when Dad sprang out of bed as bright-eyed as ever, felt restless, and looked around for something that needed doing. Mom was sound asleep, as usual. My brother and I slept in a bit. There was nobody around to keep an eye on Dad and whatever he decided to do next.
So, Dad decided that the porch (门廊) on our newly gray house needed a fresh coat of paint.He headed off to the hardware store to get paint and painting supplies. He did not tell any of us. Nor did he invite any of us along.
We' ve never been sure what happened at the hardware store. Did he ask for advice Did he study color samples Did another shopper help him choose Who knows But we' re all pretty sure that Dad had no clue what color he was painting the wooden porch. My brother and I woke up,wondered where Dad was, and went looking for him.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: We froze in our tracks when we stepped outside.
Paragraph 2: Looking at the bright pink porch, we three exchanged looks, unsure how to break the news.
