百足虫的启示 - Its back is black and has many dark red rings . it resembles a centipede . therefore , many of our fellow initiates are a little afraid of it
百足虫背部呈黑色,间有暗红节带,乍看有点像蜈蚣,所以不少同修对它会有点惧怕。 - A fence in the back yard has been built to keep small animals out , which means that the myriapods have little chance of sneaking in through the back door
大殿的后门虽然连接着一片荒地,不过筑有密闭的围墙来阻隔一些小动物进入,所以百足虫也少有机会走后门。 - Ellow initiates who come frequently to the new jersey center may have seen a kind of invertebrate animal about five or six centimeters long and half a centimeter wide . it has about a hundred pairs of legs . that is why it is called the myriapod
常到纽泽西道场的同修可能都曾看过一种长五六公分,宽约半公分的小虫,腹部长有约百来对脚,我们姑且叫它百足虫。 - Myriapods feed on humus in the fields , unlike ants , which love candy wrappings and cookie crumbs occasionally dropped by careless fellow initiates in the meditation hall . so if the myriapods do visit the meditation hall , it must be for some other purpose than food
其实,百足虫的食物为野地上的腐殖质,它们不像蚂蚁,喜欢觅食同修在大殿里不小心留下的糖果包装纸或饼乾屑,所以如果它们来大殿造访一定不是为了找寻食物,而应是别有玄机。
