21、Ants are social insects. They live together in groups. There are more than 10,000 different kinds of ants. Ants are found almost everywhere in the world.

Appearance

The body of an ant has three parts: the head, the thorax, and the abdomen. The mouth is important for most ants. It is used for fighting, eating, carrying food and other materials. On the top of the head there are two antennae. Ants use them to smell, communicate, and look for directions.

Life Cycle

There are four stages in the life cycle of the ant. The larvae have no eyes or legs. After the larvae come out of the eggs, they drop their skin several times. Most of them spin a silken cocoon (茧) around their bodies. Then they rest inside and grow into pupae. When a pupa is ready to come out of its cocoon, other ants bite a hole at the end of the silken cocoon and help the weak little ant leave the cocoon. Then they wash and feed it. Most ants live for 6 to 10 weeks.

Behavior

Most ants live in nests made of many different materials, including sand, wood, and leaves. In each nest there is usually a queen, workers, and soldiers. The queen only spends her life producing eggs. The workers collect food, clean the nest, and care for eggs. Soldiers protect the nests.

Ants have different ways of protecting themselves. Some attack their enemies with their mouths. Others run away when facing enemies, “play dead,” or send special sounds to tell others there is danger.

23、   Lots of boys dream of flying airplanes when they grow up. But only a few can say they have made their dreams come true when they are still teenagers. At the age of 19, Luke Elsworth is already a flying traveler around the world.

As a child, Elsworth enjoyed playing with toy planes and had pictures of planes on the walls in his bedroom. His father, who has been a pilot for 32 years, often took him to watch his air shows. At one show, he asked his son what he wanted to be in the future. Young Elsworth answered all he wanted to do was following his father's step—being a pilot.

Elsworth became an air cadet(空乘学员) on his 13th birthday. Five years later, he signed up for Easy Jet's pilot training program in Southampton. There, Elsworth spent almost all of his free time practicing again and again and he felt there's no regret(遗憾). “It is common for us young people to have big dreams，” he said, “but to make them come true, we need to act bigger.”

When people question him if he feels he is too young to be a pilot, Elsworth says age isn't so important when it comes to a qualified(合格的) and responsible(负责的) pilot. He even encourages(鼓励) young people to do what they want to do. “If there is a train driver who is 18 and has passed all the training tests. I will believe in him，” says Elsworth.

The young pilot's next step is to become a captain, but he will have to spend at least 8 years before that happens.

A.showed no interest  in studying
