但是也有植物不是从土壤中获得营养物质的。

12 .The places they grow, the soil is bad, so they get their nutrients from insects instead.

在它们生长的地方,土质不好。所以它们从虫子身上获取营养。

13 .From trapping and digesting insects.

这就是一个主动陷阱。

14 .And the insect springs it, so to speak-

而且可以说是昆虫使它闭合起来的。

15 .the leaf quickly closes and forms a little cage, trapping the insect between the leaves.

叶子快速闭合形成了一个小小的笼子,把昆虫困在了叶子之间。

16 .The Venus flytrap is then able to digest the insect,

8 .Well, unfortunately for the insects,

对这些昆虫来说很不幸的是,

9 .the hairs on the leaves also produce a super sticky, glue-like substance-so an insect gets stuck in them and can't fly away.

叶子上的这些毫毛同时也分泌出了一种超级黏的,像胶一样的物质。于是昆虫会被困在那儿,没有办法飞走。

10 .It, it basically gets glued there,

它基本上会一直被黏在那儿,

以便于茅膏菜将它消化

12 .and absorb nutrients.
