You may not like insects, but all of life on earth needs them to survive.

Birds, fish and reptiles feed on insects, and if there are no insects, they die from hunger. As
they die, predators which eat birds, fish and reptiles die, too, which leads to a mass
extinction.

Furthermore, insects pollinate most plants which means people cannot grow crops without
them.

Insects are very important, so it was a great shock when a report found that the mass of
insects is falling by 2.5 per cent a year. If this continues, there will be 25% less insects in just
10 years. If that happens, all of life will be in terrible danger.

There are two answers to why there are less and less insects. It is probably earth’s rising
temperatures, as well as the use of chemicals in farming.

What is the shocking fact about insects?

A. Many people hates insect.

B. Insect population could lead to bird extinction.

C. The amount of chemical used in farms.

D. Farmer cannot grow crops without insects help.

E. The decline of insects population.
