Let’s match each cloud drawing to its correct name by thinking about what each type looks like.
Step 1: Look at cloud #1 — it’s thin, wispy, and stretched out like feathers or hair. That’s classic
Cirrus clouds. So #1 matches with C.
Step 2: Cloud #2 is puffy and white, like cotton balls floating in the sky. That’s
Cumulus. So #2 matches with A.
Step 3: Cloud #3 is flat, low, and covers the sky like a blanket. That’s
Stratus. So #3 matches with D.
Step 4: Cloud #4 is dark gray and heavy-looking — that means it’s probably going to rain. Those are
Nimbus clouds (or nimbostratus/cumulonimbus). So #4 matches with B.
Now let’s double-check:
- #1 → Cirrus (C)
✔
- #2 → Cumulus (A)
✔
- #3 → Stratus (D)
✔
- #4 → Nimbus (B)
✔
All matches make sense based on how these clouds look in real life.
Final Answer:
1 – C
2 – A
3 – D
4 – B
