  Insects protect themselves in many ways. Some have thick skins or shells. Others are protected by the cocoons (茧) in which they sleep. There are still others, which use stingers to ward off their enemies. There are even insects that discourage their enemies from attacking them because they have an awful smell.

  The thing that almost all insects use for protection is their ability to disappear. They don't really vanish, but they camouflage themselves so that they can't be seen.

  Some try to look like the twigs of the trees on which they sit. Others try to look like those insects that taste bad when eaten.

  About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west.Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east.The greenhorn didn't have the skills that he would need to live in the hard, rough country.
