A
If you dislike insects,reading this might be difficult. A fossil found in England shows that a giant millipede(千足虫)was the biggest bug that ever lived.It is the size of a car.The name “millipede” means “one thousand legs” in Latin,but not many millipedes have 1,000 legs.One species(种类)has 1,300 legs.Researchers say the millipede is 2.63 metres long and weighs around 50 kg. Seeing it would be scary.We would need a lot of insect spray(杀虫剂)to keep it away.
The scientists are from Cambridge University's Department of Earth Sciences. They found the fossil on a beach by chance.It was from a cliff.They say it was “a very exciting find”.The fossil is 326 million years old.It is 100 million years older
