Monarch butterflies(黑脉金斑蝶)are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada . These large orange and black insects(昆虫)brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers . What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate(迁飞)—all the way to California or Mexico and back . They are thought to be the only insect that does this .

Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south . Those heading for Mexico go first for the Louisiana-Mississippi area , then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas . Once in Mexico , they settle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees . Each place provides a winter home for millions of monarchs . The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees . When spring comes , they begin their long journey north .

The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year . And the answer is no . The average monarch lives about nine months . So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die . The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky ; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan . The last generation of the season , about the fourth , will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey .

Scientists learn about monarchs´ migration by catching and making marks on the insects . Byrecatching a monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from , the next scientist can get to know things like the butterfly´s age and its routing(路线).

1. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is .
A. the Gulf of MexicoB. an area in Mississippi
