Wang Miao was born in the Year of the Dragon near the Bohai Sea. Her grandfather named her Miao, which has three Chinese characters for “water”. He said dragons live well with water, so this name would bring her good luck. From then on, she was closely connected with water.
Wang Miao began to dive in 2015 in the Philippines. As she spent more time in the water, she began to see not only the ocean’s beauty but also its suffering. No matter where or how deep she went in the sea, she always found rubbish. She knew she must do something, even if one person’s effort might seem small.
After graduation, Wang Miao began working on environmental projects. She realized diving is a very good skill for ocean protection. Divers join hands to deal with the waste fishing nets and other rubbish. This way works well in Russia, New Zealand and some other countries. She thought it could work in China too. So in 2017, she started the group Better Blue to protect the ocean. Many people do not understand why well-educated people like her work as “sea cleaners”. But she said, “Don’t go after success the way others do. Be the change you wish to see and stay true.”
In September 2018, Wang Miao became the first Chinese who won the UN Young Champions of the Earth Award. And in 2026, she was honored with the Study UK Alumni Awards.

“East wind brings rain; west wind brings fine.” People usually know about the weather by watching the weather report, which mainly depends on scientific facts and information models covering the whole world. In fact, there is another way to predict it. That is through watching nature carefully. Nature itself has lots of reporters.
Reading atmospheric (大气层的) signs
If thick circle black clouds gather high up and cover the whole sky, they often give a message that a rain is likely to come within the next 24 hours. When these clouds appear to be soft, white and low-lying, they generally show that the weather is fine. However, the large white clouds begin to rise higher and become thicker like towers. They’re often seen during thunderstorms.
Watching animal behaviors
Atmospheric water influences insects’ behaviors a lot. Insects act very quickly to the changes of it. Ants may run in and out of their homes in a hurry to store food or build strong houses from coming rain. Similarly, bees will return to their homes earlier and stop food searching activity when they feel it’s about to rain.
Knowing plant predictors
The plants of certain kind, area or environment give dependable signs to predict the weather. As the atmospheric water changes, the structures of plants move too. For example, fallen pine cones can sense immediate wetness levels in the air. There are seeds (种子) inside each scale of the pine cones. The scales open up in a sunny day so that the wind blows seeds away. When a rain is possible, they close and hold themselves together to protect seeds from going bad.
21. Why does the writer begin the article with a saying?
A. To tell a story. B. To explain a word.
C. To start a conversation. D. To catch readers’ interest.
22. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. The shape of the cloud. B. The height of the cloud.
C. The colour of the cloud. D. The speed of the cloud.
23. Which of the following meanings is suitable for the underlined word “immediate”?
immediate /ɪˈmi:diət/ adj.
1. happening right away; ongoing
2. next to or very close to a person
3. nearest in relationship
4. having a direct effect
(from the dictionary)
A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.
24. According to the article, when is it possible to rain?
A. The thick black clouds grow to be soft and white.
B. Ants hurry to run in and out of their homes for food.
C. Bees are busy searching food and won’t come home earlier.
D. The scales of pine cones open up to let the wind blow seeds away.
25. In which PART of a magazine can we read the article?
A. Travel. B. Sports. C. Nature. D. Culture.
