Or they might sip from the morning dew or from raindrops or from edges of ponds or puddles.
它们或许还会从露水、雨水、池塘或者水坑边饮水。
If they’re blood suckers, they probably get their water from their food.
如果是吸血类昆虫，它们大概就是从食物中获取水分。
It's worth noting that not all mouth parts are the same and this too affects the ways an insect is able to get water.
值得注意的是，昆虫的口器是不一样的，这就也会影响它们饮水的方式。
There are basically two kinds of insect mouths.
昆虫的口器大致分为两类。
There are chewers and suckers.
分别是咀嚼式及吸收式口器。
Some chewers may have a difficult time trying to draw water from a pond, whereas getting their water from chewing a leaf is simple.
一些咀嚼式口器在池塘边喝水可能会有困难，反而通过咀嚼叶子来获取水分会更简单。
Suckers, on the other hand, have a tube-like mouth part called a proboscis that allows them to get liquid by sucking or lapping, whether from the nectar of flowers or from a soda can.
吸收式口器则有一个管状叫做“喙”的部位，可以让昆虫通过吸或舔的方式获得水分，不论是从花的花蜜中还是汽水瓶中。
Or from my arm, right?
从我的手臂也行，对吧?
That's true.
是的!
