Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A bite from a tsetse fly (采采蝇) is an extremely unpleasant experience. It
10、 is not like a mosquito, which can put its thin mouthpart directly into your blood, often without you noticing. In contrast, the tsetse flys mouth has tiny saws on it that saw into your skin on its way to suck out your blood.To make matters worse, several species of tsetse fly can transmit diseases.
