In order to accumulate some writing materials, I want to observe how ants transport food. I scooped some rice with a spoon and poured it into our flowers. There are many ants there. This time, I want to take a closer look at how ants carry food home.
Sure enough, a swarm of ants rushed to the food. They lined up one by one to transport grain, as if they had arranged the order of who came first and who came last, one after another. Their organizational discipline shocked me. My eyes were attracted by a thin little ant carrying a big grain of rice, and I thought, what are you trying to be brave for, little guy? Let your partner help you quickly! How can you transport such a big grain of rice and such a small one back?
Unexpectedly, this little guy is tenacious, dragging heavy food but refusing to let go. I followed this "little friend" quietly until I climbed a muddy road with a puddle, and the little ant stopped. It didn't wipe the sweat off its head, but focused on how to finish this difficult road. At this time, an older ant came up to it, waving its tentacles on its head, as if to say to the little ant, "friend, don't be brave." Let me help you. You can't go alone! " The little ant also shook his tentacles, as if to answer his companion: "Brother, thank you for your kindness! I can do it alone, and besides, you have other food to transport. " The big ant left, and it followed the big ant team to transport grain, leaving only the tenacious little ant.
After a short rest, the little hero finally took the first step. However, because the road was too slippery, the little ant fell heavily. In a short time, it stood up strongly again and continued to walk hard. Later, I don't know how many times I fell, but the little ant always fell a hundred times and got up a hundred times, getting closer and closer to its home. In front of a small puddle, I accidentally fell into it again. I really feel sorry for this little soldier who is going home soon, and I want to extend a friendly hand to help him transport it. But when I think about it, I still hold back. I think: after so many hardships, the little ant will always find a way. Oh, my god, the little ant is pulling the food freestyle. It's amazing!
Five minutes later, the tired little ant finally got through the difficulty. It stopped again, as if looking back at the small dirt road conquered by its own efforts and will, and it seemed to show a victorious smile on its face. It understands that no difficulty can stop the footsteps of the strong.
Two ants are pacing on the willow tree. An ant asked, "How big is the earth?"
I don't know. The other ant answered dully.
"If only I had something like a fan, which humans call wings!"
"Impossible," said another ant with a long yawn. "Don't dream. You can't even fly. Learn to crawl slowly with me. "
These two ants are a child and a father. You should know who is the father and who is the son.
I must travel around the world! The son said.
"If you can climb the mountain ahead, you can go anywhere you want. I'll get on the elevator first and wait for you at the top of the mountain. " Then the ant father stepped on a piece of catkin and flew to the top of the mountain with the wind.
I forgot to tell you that this mountain is called Cook Peak, and no one has climbed it so far. But the ant boy bravely came down from the tree and climbed to the top of the mountain. I don't know how many strange rocks I climbed and how many dangerous beaches I crossed along the way; One moment is a storm, the other is a scorching sun. After 365 days, when the catkins floated again, the ants finally conquered Cook Peak.
Why did he climb up when he was interviewed by Ant Daily? He replied, "Only courage can advance, and only courage can reach the end." His words became a famous saying in the ant world, and this ant also became a star in the ant world.
The son became a star, but the father was eaten by the snake.
The ants didn't stop climbing. He ventured across the world and conquered many places. Finally, he became the king of the ant world.

Named storm
Chen Xinyuan, Class 1, Grade 4, Jin Primary School, Dongying
There is a little white rabbit in my family, and in order to name it, it caused an uproar.
When I just bought it back, the rabbit was all white and had red eyes. It was so cute. We all want to give it a nice name. Dad said to call it "Xiao Bai". I firmly refused, saying that it should be called "Bepanram Rapacindo". My father was puzzled and asked me what I meant. I said it means "Little White" of Xiongnu. The whole family fainted. It was too wordy. It is better to call it "Xiaobai".
The next day, my mother gave it a name called "Childe Xiaobai". The family has no problem, so the name is settled.
But on the fourth day, I remembered that "Gongzi" should have a surname, so I might as well call it "Gongzi Chen". Dad was very happy and said it was better to call him "Chen". Mother's face sank and said that it should be called "Dong (mother's surname)". My father and I resolutely opposed it, and the family argued all morning without result. I have to use the name "Little White Childe" again.
The naming storm finally subsided, but I came to question, why did mom add the word "childe"? I looked it up. I really don't know. I was shocked. It turns out that "Childe Xiaobai" is the name of an important person in ancient times, but it is one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period-Qi Huangong!
Since then, "Qi Huangong" has settled in our home.
Ants are so small that a gust of wind can blow them away, or they are everywhere: they are busy everywhere, on the road, on the grass, in the fields and in the forest. Up to now, more than 600 species of ants have been found in China, and there are about 12000- 17000 species of ants in the world. Its variety and quantity are amazing!
Ants consist of three parts: head, chest and abdomen. There are three pairs of feet, and the front pair (also called angle cleaner) is used to clean the head. There are a pair of antennae on the head, which are used to communicate with peers. They like to live in warm and humid soil, because they live underground for a long time and need to supplement sugar in their bodies, so they like sweets very much. According to legend, when Chu and Han contended, Zhang Liang, Liu Bang's counselor, wrote the six characters "Wang Ba committed suicide in Wujiang River" in caramel. Xiang Yu arrived at the river bank and was surprised to see the wind ants lined up in these six words. His heart was providence, and he sighed and drew his sword to commit suicide. These little ants who love sweets probably didn't think that they changed history!
Ants are very social. There are four kinds of ants in an ant nest: queen, male, worker and soldier. The queen is the largest, and is their leader, responsible for laying eggs. The male ant is the father ant. Worker ants are the busiest. They look for food, carry food, expand their nests and take care of their larvae. Soldier ants are the "army" of the ant kingdom to prevent foreign enemies from invading. They work together, unite and help each other, just like human society.
Ants are very clever. They will plant crops, graze cattle and sheep, cultivate fungi and predict floods. Before the Amazon River flooded, ants gathered information everywhere, made a decision after collective discussion, formed a long snake array and moved to a safe place. Based on this, the local Indians learned about the flooded area and moved it in time.
Once on fire, they will gather together to form a big ant ball and roll over the fire. The ant outside died, but the ant inside survived. Their wisdom and sacrifice are amazing!
As Jim Ron, an American scholar, said, "We should learn the four philosophies of ants: first, never give up; Second, plan ahead; Third, full of expectations; Fourth, do your best. What an amazing philosophy this is! "
One day, I was playing outside with my friends. Suddenly, we found a group of ants busy doing something. It is said that ants are afraid of the smell of mothballs and want to do an experiment to prove whether it is true or not.
So, my friend and I went to a nearby store and bought a mothball.
First, we caught two ants. We drew a line in front of the ants with mothballs. The ant turned and broke through the defense line and ran away. How did the ants escape? Aren't you afraid of the smell of mothballs? Out of curiosity, we caught two more ants. As before, we drew a line in front of the ants. The ants wanted to break through and approached the line, as if to say, "It would be too small for you to trap us with such a line! Ha, ha, ha. "Ants are proudly scrambling to draw lines. I think this experiment is divided into 0? When I sighed, the ants seemed to be blown back by the wind, and the ants dared not break through the line drawing.
When the ants were exhausted and weak, we drew a big circle around them. Ants seem to be smarter now, and they don't want to break through line drawing as before. Without the arrogance and pride at the beginning, I wandered around the circle looking for an exit. We gradually narrowed the circle, and the ants seemed to be unable to stand the smell of moth balls any longer, as if begging, "Please let us go quickly!" " ! We really can't stand it. We were too arrogant just now ... "The best thing is that when we shrink the circle to be smaller than a dollar coin, the ants stop wandering and lie motionless on the ground. Ants may be too tired, and the smell of mothballs can't stand it, so they leave this world.
The experiment of ants tells us that science is everywhere. As long as you have the heart, you will find that science is around us.
One day, I came home from school and found a group of dark things moving on the ground. When I saw it, it turned out to be a dwarf among animals-ants. An ant is a small insect. Small body, like a black sesame. I gently hold this ant with my hand and find that it has three pairs of small feet and a pair of tentacles as sensitive as hair. These tentacles are mainly used to spy on the enemy and provide information, just like people's eyes, nose and mouth. Although small, but very skilled!
At this moment, I stood by and watched its movements. The ant saw a big caterpillar nearby and wanted to move it back to the hole. It first touched the caterpillar with its tentacles, then shook its feet with all its strength, but the caterpillar was too heavy. Just when it was in a hurry, another ant came. At this time, two ants met. After a while, they moved together, but it didn't help. At this moment, an ant seems to say, "I'll call my partner to move!" " "After a while, ants flooded in. I saw a large group of ants carrying a dying caterpillar, panting forward. Some of them use their heads, some bite and drag with their mouths, some lead the way in front, and some are behind the house. What a powerful hunting army!
I can't help cheering for them: "Come on!" The army moved slowly. Soon it was dragged to the hole, but the ant hole was too small to be dragged in. An old ant seems to say, "I have an idea." It makes ants bite the belly of big caterpillars, and some bite the head of big caterpillars. In a short time, a big caterpillar alive and well was dismembered into a piece of skin ... I looked at all this and felt both interesting and surprised. I didn't expect ordinary ants to have such great skills. This reminds me of the famous saying, "When people are moved, Mount Tai moves".
Have you ever heard of ants building houses on the road? I'll tell you now: ants in China dig holes and build nests in the ground, while ants in Africa build houses on the ground. This is what I learned from reading the article "Skyscraper of Ants".
In Somalia, Africa, ants' houses can be seen in the grassy suburbs and on both sides of city streets. These houses are as small as two or three meters high and as big as seven or eight meters! It can really be called "skyscraper"! And they are all kinds, some like domes, some like mushrooms, and more are conical with thick bottom and thin top, like bamboo shoots rising from the ground. What a strange building!
How was such a strange building built? Ants choose dead trees or shrubs to build their nests. They first bite off the soft and rotten parts, leaving the hard and solid parts as the skeleton. Then, thousands of construction teams, with a grain of sand in their mouths, climbed up the skeleton in an endless stream, stuck the sand on it with saliva, and turned and climbed back. In this way, the house has been constantly heightened and thickened, becoming a "room" of all sizes.
Judging from the internal structure and appearance of these houses, don't you admire the superb skills of architects? Their superb skills are impressive, but their tenacity, courage, persistence and perseverance will make me admire from the bottom of my heart!
