Florida is celebrating a big anniversary this year.Five hundred years ago,on April 2,1513,Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon arrived on the east coast of what is now Florida.Native Americans had been living there for centuries, but Ponce de Leon was the first European to set foot in what would become the United States

According to legend（传说）,Ponce de Leon may have landed in Florida by mistake He is said to have been looking for an island called Bimini and its Fountain of Youth.The magical fountain could supposedly make old people young again.Instead,Ponce de Leon landed on the Florida peninsula（半岛）and claimed it for Spain.He named it La Florida,or “flowery place”.

What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm?You may blow it away.But what if that insect is a ladybug（瓢虫）.It is possible that you would let it stay.What is it about ladybugs that we like?

Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good lucky sign.A ladybug in the field meant the crops would be successful and that the weather would be good.The farmers may have thought too highly of such a small bug,but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops.They eat harmful insects.

Actually,it is not the adult ladybug that eats other insects.It’s the baby ladybug.When the baby ladybugs hatch（孵化）,they are very hungry and will eat mites,aphids,mealy bugs,green flies,and other crop-destroyers.In the 1800s,ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects.They completely saved all the trees.

Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything.Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off a dangerous fluid（液体）.Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead.They fall off leaves and never move until their attacker goes away.

So the next time you see a ladybug,think about what it may be doing.Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size.Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow.Who knows?

A.add more ladybugs to area

B.report the weather for farmers

D.the baby ladybug mainly eats mites,aphids,mealy bugs,and oranges

11.The underlined phrase“stand up to”most probably means .

A.watch
