Question

passage
We have been brought up insects.we regard them as unnecessary creatures that are more
harm than good. Man continually wages war on them for the contaminate his food carry
diseases, or devour his crops. They sting or bite without provocation the fly uninvited into our
rooms on summer nights or beat against a lighted windows. We live in dread not only of
unpleasant insects like spiders or wasps but of quite harmless ones like moths. Reading
about them increases our understanding without dispelling our fears. Knowing that
industrious ant lives in a highly organised society does nothing to prevent us from being
filled with revulsion when we find hordes of them crawling over a carefully prepared picnic
lunch.
No matter how much we like honey for how much read about uncanny sense
of direction which bees possess, we have a horror of being stung. Most of fears are
unreasonable but they are difficult to erase at the same time however insects are strangely
fascinating, we enjoy reading about them specially when we find that like the praying mantis
they lead perfectly horrible lives. We enjoy staring at them, entranced as they go about their
business and unaware of our presence who has not stood in awe at the sight of a spider
pouncing on a fly or a column of ants triumphantly bearing home an enormous dead beetle?
last summer I spent days in the garden watching thousands of ants crawling up the
trunk of my prized peach tree. The tree has grown against a warm wall on a sheltered side of
the house. I am specially proud of it, not only because it has survived several severe winters,
but because it occasionally produces Luscious peaches. During the summer I noticed that
the leaves of the tree were beginning to wither. Clusters of tiny insects called aphis were to
be found on the underside of the leaves. They were visited by a large colony of ants which
obtained a sort of honey from them I immediately embarked on an experiment which even
though it failed to get rid of the ants kept me fascinated for 24 hours.I bound the base of the
tree with a sticky tape ,making it impossible for the ants to reach the aphis. The tape was so
sticky that they did not dare to cross it.For a long time, I watched them scurrying around the
base of the tree in bewilderment. I even went out at midnight with torch and noted with
satisfaction and surprise that the ants were still swarming around the sticky tape without
being able to do anything about it.I got up early next morning hoping to find that the ants
had given up in despair Instead, I saw that they had discovered a new route .They were
climbing up the wall of the house and then on to the leaves of the tree. I realised sadly that I
had been completely defeated by their ingenuity. The ants had been quick to find an answer
to my thoroughly unscientific methods! summary
