Lesson 2-2  Spare that spider

How many spiders

are engaged in this work on our behalf? One authority on spiders made a census

of the spiders in a grass field in the south of England, and he estimated that

there were more than 2,250,000 in one acre; that is something like 6,000,000

spiders of different kinds on a football pitch．Spiders are busy for at least half the year in killing

insects．It is impossible to make more than the

wildest guess at how many they kill, but they are hungry creatures, not content

with only three meals a day．It has been estimated that the weight of all the insects destroyed byspiders in Britain in one year would be greater than the total weight of allthe human beings in the country.
