Lesson 2.
2
Cicadas.
3
An amazing life cycle.
4
What comes to mind when you think of cicadas?
5
Most likely, it's all the noise they make on hot summer days.
6
While their name means tree crickets in Latin, cicadas only spend a small part of their lives in trees and trees.
7
They spend most of their lives underground.
8
Some cicadas even spend 17 years under the ground.
9
Let's take a look at these cicadas' amazing life cycle.
10
Just before female cicadas die, they lay their eggs in the bark of branches.
11
One cicada lays from 400 to 6,000 eggs.
12
Six to ten weeks later, the eggs hatch.
13
The baby cicadas drop to the ground and dig burrows deep into the soil.
14
Small and wingless, they are known as nymphs.
15
Depending on their species, nymphs spend from one to seventeen years in these burrows, sucking liquid from tree roots.
16
But not all the nymphs can survive.
17
They are full of protein, so animals such as birds and snakes eat them.
18
Cicadas lay so many eggs to ensure that their population remains stable, even if many nymphs get eaten.
19
Eventually, the surviving nymphs dig back up to the surface of the earth.
20
Then, after climbing onto a nearby plant, they shed their skin.
21
What emerges is an adult cicada.
22
Adult cicadas have thick bodies and four clear wings.
23
These adults live for only about three weeks, just enough time to find a mate.
24
This is when we hear all the buzzing and clicking.
25
Male cicadas make these sounds to find a mate.
26
They die soon after mating, while females die after they lay their eggs.
27
And then the life cycle begins again.
28
No one is sure why some cicadas have such a long life cycle.
29
But no matter what the reason is, cicadas are truly a wonder of nature.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
