蚁巢 Pronunciation and Pinyin

蚁巢 Usage and Examples

ant nest

anthill

当一只蚂蚁撞击到另一只蚂蚁时,它会用它的触角去用力地嗅一嗅,以确定这只蚂蚁是否是同一个蚁巢的,与它一直在哪里觅食。

When one ant bumps into another, it sniffs with its antennae to find out if the other belongs to the same nest and where it has been working.

他解释说:“如果蚁群已经找到了一种可靠的方法来确定蚁巢和食物源之间的最佳路线,那么公司经理们就会想,为什么不利用这种知识呢?”

He explains, "If ant colonies had worked out a reliable way to identify the best routes between their nest and food sources, the company managers figured, why not take advantage of that knowledge?"
