We are dragonflies. We fly around in the morning or evening of summer, but how much do you know about us
Why are dragonflies in a hurry (匆忙)
Most of us live for only a few months as grown-up (成虫), so we fly around looking for food and a mate (伴侣). The largest dragonflies can fly 40 to 60 kilometers every hour, making us the fastest flying insects (昆虫).

2.There are more than 5,000 different kinds of dragonflies.
3. You can find us in almost every country of the world.
4.We catch other insects and eat them as we fly.
5. We have been for about 300 million (百万) years.
6.We do not hurt (伤害) people.
Life cycle
We drop our eggs (卵) in the water. Our young babies live underwater for many years.
Skilled (熟练的) fliers
Our wings (翅膀) are very powerful (强大的). Each wing can move on its own or together as a pair. Like helicopters (直升机), we can hover (盘旋). That keeps us the same place in the air. We can hover in the air for about one minute.
