you can imagine what the walking safari is like. there is a brief moment of triumph
at the start when i manage to get an antlion to perform for us. antlions are little
grubs that live in the ground and excavate cone-shaped holes in the soil. they're
expert hunters and perfect examples of how murderous the bush is, even when the
animals involved are smaller than your fingernail. they also happen to be a useful
way of keeping your clients entertained when there is nothing more glamorous to
look at. the reason why antlions dig their holes is because they want ants to fall into
them and provide them with a meal, and - lo! - just as i'm telling my group this,
along comes an ant and tumbles into the miniature death-pit. he's too big for this
particular grub, however, and after a struggle, he escapes. but, he's proved my
point perfectly. my clients are excited. so am i.
q4.
in what two ways did the writer think the antlion's performance provided him
with “ brief moment of " (line 40)? 20
