Look at the plant in the picture. It looks beautiful, right? Can you imagine (想象) it kills?
The Venus flytrap is a kind of meat-eating plant. It grows in very few places, like wetlands near the sea in North Carolina in America.
The Venus flytrap is not a large plant. It grows to be only about a foot tall. The plant has white flowers in the spring, but it is the plant’s leaves that make it so interesting. The ends of the leaves have folding parts with stiff, tiny hairs (带小硬刺的可折叠部分). These are the plant’s “traps ”.
What does the Venus flytrap eat? As you might guess, the Venus flytrap eats flies . It also eats spiders, ants and crickets . The Venus flytrap makes most of its food with sun, air and water, just like other plants. Living things just give it extra nutrition to grow well in wetlands.
How does this plant trap and eat living things? The Venus flytrap uses a sweet liquid to attract its food. When a fly lands on one of the plant’s open traps, hairs on the surface make the trap close. And when the trap closes, the fly is dinner!
If you want to have your own Venus flytrap at home, you have to buy the plant from a special place. You can’t take a Venus flytrap from where it grows! There are laws about taking it out of the wild.
