Activity 2.

(A) Listen and read.

Look at the picture. What are the ants doing? They are talking. Do they talk? Yes. How can they talk? They touch their feelers or antennae and pass messages. Watch a row of ants. Each ant touches other ants with feelers.

We always see ants, but we don't pay attention to them. Where do they live? In comfortable homes, nests or anthills! Each anthill has many rooms and passages. Other rooms are nurseries for the young ones. Workers have their reserved quarters.

The workers search and fetch food into the anthill. Some rooms are storehouses for the food. Soldiers do not go out searching for food. Workers,

soldiers or cleaners do not harm the young ones, the grubs. They never fight with other members of the group. So the ants' life is very peaceful.

The queen ant lives for about fifteen years. It lays eggs. Eggs are hatched and grubs come out. Soldiers guard them. Workers feed and clean them. They also carry them for exercise and sunshine. Some other creatures live in the anthill.

They are beetles, smaller ants and greenflies. Why do ants keep these creatures in their home? For many reasons. Some for pleasant smell. Some are just pets and are playing like our cats and dogs. Others give sweet juice.

The greenfly is the ants' cow. The ants train it to give honeydew (like milk). They milk it just as we milk the cow.

અમે અને મારું કુટુંબ (મને ખાતરી છે કે તમે કીડીઓ વિશે ઘણી વસ્તુઓ જાણો છો. ચાલો, આ નાના, મહેનતુ અને બુદ્ધિશાળી જીવ વિશે વધુ જાણીએ.) મને ખાતરી છે કે તમને કીડીઓ વિશે ઘણી ખબર છે. ચાલો, આપણે આ નાનકડા, મહેનતુ અને હોશિયાર જીવ વિશે વધુ જાણીએ.

ચિત્ર જુઓ. કીડીઓ શું કરી રહી છે? તેઓ વાતો કરી રહી છે. શું તેઓ વાતો કરે? હા. તેઓ કઈ રીતે વાતો કરી શકે? તેઓ તેમની સ્પર્શેન્દ્રિયો (ફીલર્સ અથવા એન્ટેના) દ્વારા સ્પર્શ કરીને સંદેશા પહોંચાડે છે. કીડીઓની હરોળ જુઓ. દરેક કીડી તેની સ્પર્શેન્દ્રિય વડે બીજી કીડીઓને સ્પર્શે છે.

આપણે હંમેશાં કીડીઓને જોઈએ છીએ, પણ આપણે તેમના પર ધ્યાન આપતા નથી. તેઓ ક્યાં રહે છે? આરામદાયક ઘરોમાં – માળાઓમાં અથવા દરોમાં! દરેક દરમાં ઘણાં ઓરડા અને માર્ગો હોય છે. બીજા ઓરડા બચ્ચાઓની સંભાળ રાખવા માટેના હોય છે. કામદારોને તેમનાં અનામત રહેઠાણ હોય છે. કામદારો દરમાં ખાવાની વસ્તુઓ શોધે અને લાવે છે. અમુક ઓરડા ખાવાની વસ્તુઓના કોઠાર હોય છે. સૈનિકો માટે જુદાં રહેઠાણ (બેરક) હોય છે. સૈનિકો ખાવાનું શોધવા માટે બહાર જતા નથી. કામદારો, સૈનિકો અથવા સફાઈ કરનાર ગ્રબ (બચ્ચાં)ને નુકસાન પહોંચાડતા નથી. તેઓ જૂથના બીજા સભ્યો સાથે કદી લડતા નથી. તેથી કીડીઓનું જીવન બહુ શાંત હોય છે.

કીડીઓની રાણી લગભગ પંદર વર્ષ જીવે છે. તે ઈંડાં મૂકે છે. ઈંડાં સેવવામાં આવે છે અને ગ્રબ (બચ્ચાં) બહાર આવે છે. સૈનિકો તેમનું રક્ષણ કરે છે. કામદારો તેમને ખવરાવે અને સ્વચ્છ કરે છે. તેઓ તેમને કસરત અને તડકા માટે પણ લઈ જાય છે. બીજા ઘણાં જંતુઓ દરમાં રહે છે. તે ભમરા, નાની કીડીઓ અને ગ્રીનફ્લાઇઝ છે. કીડીઓ આ જંતુઓને શા માટે તેમના ઘરે રાખે છે? ઘણાં કારણોને લીધે. અમુક (જંતુઓ) સુગંધ માટે હોય છે. અમુક ફક્ત પાળેલાં હોય છે અને આપણી બિલાડીઓ અને કૂતરાની જેમ રમતાં હોય છે. બીજા (જંતુઓ) મીઠો રસ આપે છે.

ગ્રીનફ્લાઈ કીડીઓની ગાય છે. કીડીઓ તેને (દૂધની જેમ) હનીડ્યુ આપવાની તાલીમ આપે છે. જેમ આપણે ગાય દોઈએ તેમ તેઓ તેને દોહે છે.
