READING COMPREHENSION

The body of adult insect is subdivided into a head, a thorax of three segments, and a segmented
abdomen. Ordinarily, the thorax bears three pairs of legs. One or two pairs of wings may be attached to
the thorax. Most adult insects have two a compound eyes, and two or three simple eyes.
Features of the mouth parts are very helpful in classifying the many kinds of insects. A majority of
insects have biting mouth parts or mandibles as in grasshoppers and beetles. Behind the mandibles are
maxillae, which serve to direct food into the mouth between the sucking mouth parts, the mandibles,
maxillae, labrum, and labium are modified to provide a tube through which liquid can be drawn. In a
butterfly oar moth, the called drinking tube is called the proboscis. Composed chiefly or modified
maxillae fitted together, the proboscis can be extended to reach nectar deep in a flower. In a mosquito
oar an aphid, mandibles and maxillae are modified to sharp styles with which the insect can drill
through surfaces to reach juice. In a housefly, the expanding labium forms a sponge-like mouth pad
that it can use to stamp over the surface of food. (Taken from Baron’s TOEFL)
