Chapter 1: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
On Friday, I went to the supermarket and bought some silkworms. As soon as I got home, I opened the box and built a small nest for the silkworms. The silkworm babies are all dark, small and exquisite, only two millimeters long!
After setting up the house, the silkworm babies all looked at me, as if saying: "I'm starving to death!" I immediately woke up, picked some mulberry leaves, and put them in the box. However, the silkworms didn't eat it, and I secretly cursed them as "picky eaters". At this time, I suddenly remembered what the science teacher said - you must cut the mulberry leaves into strips so that silkworms can eat them. I immediately found scissors, cut the mulberry leaves into "thin threads" and put them in. This trick is really effective, even the silkworms are rushing to eat it!
As soon as I got up the next day, I ran to "measure the height" of the silkworm babies. They all grew a full millimeter, and the largest one grew two millimeters! After cleaning the "little nest" for the silkworm babies, they let them eat a "mulberry leaf feast". I was afraid that the silkworm babies would be too fat, so I picked mulberry fruits and gave them to them to play with so that they could exercise.
I really hope the silkworm babies can grow up quickly! Chapter 2: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
This afternoon, my friend Zeng gave me fifty little silkworms as a farewell. Ah, I am so happy! I said to these silkworm babies: "I will definitely let you grow up happily!"
From then on, my career in sericulture began...
After school every day When I got home, the first thing I did was observe their changes.
I named the biggest silkworm "Fat Big Head". This fat guy usually looks lazy all day long, but when it comes to eating mulberry leaves, he does it better than anyone else! I just changed the mulberry leaves, and it didn't even look for a good place to eat, it just chewed them on the spot. Therefore, it is much larger than its companions!
If I catch it on another mulberry leaf, it will still shake its fat body to resist me. Because of its fat body, it is the only silkworm that occupies a mulberry leaf. Once there is an intruder, it will be like a silkworm king, raising its head high, as if to say: "Who dares to try it?" My iron head skill!" When the other silkworms saw it, they ran away in panic.
At night, Fatty’s appetite is extremely good, as if he can never have enough to eat. If two mulberry leaves are too close together, he will not care and just open his mouth wide. He gnawed the pieces together until the end, and he refused to stop until he couldn't eat any more.
Fatty, I really admire your amazing appetite! What a silkworm that people can’t put down! Chapter 3: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
When a silkworm baby just hatches from the egg, you must treat it with special care and feed it with relatively tender mulberry leaves.
Today, my sister gave me thirty lovely silkworm babies, and I took good care of them.
The silkworm baby has a small and exquisite head. It has small eyes, a small mouth, and a nose like a grain of sand. There are patterns on its fat and white body, and its belly and chest are covered with feet with small thorns.
I first made a beautiful room for the silkworm baby with a piece of exquisite colored paper, and then put the silkworm baby inside. I also put some green and tender mulberry leaves in the box. The silkworm baby who had been waiting for a long time took a big bite. I ate it with big mouthfuls. After a while, big holes appeared on the young leaves. After a while, only the stems of the fresh mulberry leaves were left.
I only had one bag of mulberry leaves every month and sprinkled one or two pieces every day. My silkworms gradually grew up and became as thick as a pen refill. After several times of shedding, the silkworm babies became white and fat, and several of them had already formed cocoons.
Seeing the silkworm babies grow up day by day, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. Chapter 4: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
This spring, my father gave me some cicada eggs to raise.
The newly born cicada has a black body and is very small, only as big as an ant.
I found a large cardboard box and punched some holes for ventilation. I also found toilet paper, spread it in the box, and spread an even layer of thinly cut mulberry leaves. Then, put the baby cicadas on the plate one by one.
Every morning, I clean the "room" for the cicada baby. First take out the dried leaves and feces, and then feed them the fresh and tender mulberry leaves cut into thin strips. After class every day, I would add some fresh mulberry leaves for them. Under my careful care, baby cicada is getting fatter and stronger day by day. One day, I found that some cicada babies were not eating or moving. I thought they were dead and shed tears sadly. Dad said they were not dead, but about to shed their skin, but I still doubt it. I immediately went to see the baby cicadas. Sure enough, they were not dead. They were squirming with their white bodies and eating delicious food. After four molts, the baby cicada grew up a lot and turned into a fat and white cicada girl. The cicada girl formed a cocoon. They spun out silk and wrapped it around themselves in circles. Finally, an oval-shaped cocoon was formed. After about a week, a small hole appeared in the cocoon, and beautiful white cicada moths stood on it, their thin tentacles swaying slightly. Two cicadas mate and lay densely packed eggs, ending their short lives.
This time raising silkworms has enabled me to master many methods of raising cicadas and increase my knowledge of raising cicadas. Chapter 5: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
A teacher friend of my mother gave me a sheet of silkworms, which was densely packed with silkworms.
A friend of mine went to buy silkworms. When he opened the box, there were five silkworm babies. I thought my silkworms had come out too!
When I got home and saw a large area of ??darkness in the box, I thought they were all dead, but I still put two leaves in to give it a try. When I opened the box in the afternoon, all the silkworms crawled on the leaves. I know that the silkworm baby is not dead. The sericulture plan is on track.
The most difficult thing was to find mulberry leaves. I asked around and asked about them. Sometimes they said they were found in the park, and sometimes they were found in the back fields. Hard work paid off. I found two mulberry trees in my father's factory and picked them every four days on average. This allowed the silkworms to eat well, sleep well, and replace the paper with paper once a day. There is only one word to describe the mulberry leaves that the silkworms have eaten: they are riddled with holes.
At five or six days old, the silkworm’s head turns a little white and its body turns gray. Slowly the third quarter also became white. Seeing the silkworm babies grow up, I am extremely excited.
It’s hard to raise silkworms, and it’s even harder to find mulberry leaves, but when I see my baby happily eating the leaves and growing up, my efforts are rewarded, and I’m so happy that I don’t know what to do. Chapter 6: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
"How old are your silkworms?" "Let me see your silkworms!" Such words can be heard everywhere. The corridors, stairs, and classrooms were filled with students talking endlessly about silkworms. Sericulture has become the most popular thing in school.
Driven by curiosity, I also started my own sericulture plan.
I first found a ventilated box as a home for silkworms. Then put a piece of paper covered with silkworm seeds in one of the places and cover it with a few small mulberry leaves to serve as a nursery. The rest of the area is covered with mulberry leaves, serving as a playground and canteen for silkworms. Finally, I quietly waited for the birth of silkworms.
Everything is going smoothly. Soon, my first batch of silkworms was born, which made me unable to calm down for a long time. Although they are dark and thin, they are not very pretty. But that doesn't stop me from loving them at all. I feed them regularly and rationed food every day without any neglect. As a result, their physiques also continued to improve by leaps and bounds.
Gradually, their little heads turned from black to white, and their bodies bulged like balloons. Full of energy.
Now, they have been transformed from Cinderella into Snow White, and their bodies are still swelling and expanding rapidly like steamed buns. Although they are still small now, like ‘toddlers’. However, I believe that in the near future, under my careful care, they will be able to grow wings and fly to the vast world.
I love my silkworms. I don’t regard them as playthings, but treat them like friends. Chapter 7: A 350-word essay on raising silkworms
In the past few days, I don’t know when, raising silkworms suddenly became popular in the class! Those "silkworm fans" not only hold silkworm boxes after class, but also during class. If someone's silkworms hatch, that's "news"!
I was also involved. On the way home from school, I thought: Has my silkworm baby hatched? As soon as I got home, I couldn't wait to open the science kit bag. Unexpectedly, when I said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived - the silkworm babies had hatched. I was anxious like an ant on a hot pot. I had neither mulberry leaves nor feed at home. What should I do?
I immediately went out and bought a few bags of feed. When I got home, I found that the silkworm babies had disappeared! I immediately "searched" my home, but found nothing. I sat down on the ground and kept mumbling: "Oh, my hard work has been in vain again!"
I had no choice but to buy a few more silkworm eggs and heard the silkworm seller say: "These silkworm eggs can grow colorful silkworms and spin out silkworm-colored silk. I have no doubt about it. No matter what, I take care of the silkworm eggs in every possible way. I specially prepared a comfortable box for it to grow happily. I observed the silkworm eggs every day, and their color became lighter and lighter, from black to brown to gray to light yellow. I heard my mother say: "These silkworm eggs are about to hatch!" "I listened and danced happily.
When these lovely silkworm babies are born, they will be greeted by the 'feed feast' that I carefully prepared. Chapter 8: A 350-word composition on silkworm rearing
p>In March, I planted a new hope in my beloved box - silkworm eggs
Two days later, a silkworm egg emerged from the egg. They look like black ants, but they are covered with hair. My mother said kindly: Silkworms looked like ants when they were young. I thought otherwise. The ants came to "burglary"!
I took good care of the silkworms every day. I discovered many secrets. The silkworms are afraid of water. Therefore, I change the leaves carefully every day, for fear that water will drip into the silkworms. "Little house", even a drop of water will kill the silkworm baby's little command! Not only that. I also know that the silkworm baby eats mulberry leaves very quickly, and can eat bits and pieces of the mulberry leaves thrown in in one afternoon. It is really nibbling. The silkworms ate a lot and pooped a lot. When I was cleaning their little houses, I always saw a lot of poop, which I felt was disgusting at first. But my mother didn’t think so. The feces of silkworms can be used to make silkworm silt pillows! After listening to my mother's words, my attitude towards silkworms has changed a lot. After a month and a half, I gained a great joy. This is the happiest thing I have ever done in raising silkworms. Something happened - my silkworms spun silk and formed cocoons!
I felt a sense of awe as I watched them go through their lives silently.
