Sometimes we think of all insects as pests. Human life, however, would have a difficult time continuing w

16、ithout insects, (21) they pollinate plants and are a food source for many animals. Besides, insects, especially the social (22) ，are fascinating.One very interesting and useful social insect is the honey bee. Bees (23) (consider) social insects because they live and work together. The bee lives in a

17、 beehive with other worker bees, and with the queen, who can lay thousands of eggs a day. The worker bees make wax used (24) (create) new cells inside the hive. Humans use this valuable beeswax (25) candles，cosmetics, expensive furniture polish, and other products. They also produce honey, a valuabl

18、e food for humans (as well as for bees).Another fascinating social insect is (26) ant. Many types of ants live in colonies underground. There thousands of them build and maintain their “city”.

19、tually raise their own food. One type of ant “farmer” keeps and cares for tiny insects that suck sweet sap (汁液）from plants. Ant farmers milk them from the sap, just like actual farmers milk cows. The sap is then given as food to young ants and to the queen, (27) main duty is to lay eggs. Another typ

20、e of ant that produces its own food does so by gardening. These farmer ants take pieces of leaves into the colony and chew them up.

The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include ones

24、feelings, will, (31) , interests and habits.Though people all know that one should have (32) objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents dont pay much attention to (33) these factors.Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well i

25、n their studies. They blame either (34) factors, malnutrition, or laziness, but they never take into consideration these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers dont inquire into these as reasons why students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or even (35)

26、 or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and give themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray because they are sick of learning.

28、sychological development among a few students.If we dont start now to (38) the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only obstruct the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the(39) of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward suggestions about how to cu
