阅读表达（阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。）

“If you want to find something new， you have to go to a place nobody has been to before，” says Jean Michel Lemaire. “You have to open your eyes .

Lemaire is a retired mathematician from France with a passion for beetles （甲虫）. In the last few years， Lemaire has found seven new species. He has hunted them down by exploring caves and crawling through tunnels dating back to the Middle Ages. It was in one such tunnel in Monaco that he found his most valuable discovery—a blind soil-dwelling （居住） beetle which is only 2mm long. Lemaire thinks it probably lives nowhere else on earth but the Rock of Monaco. “Finding a new species is like the holy grail （圣杯）.” he says.

Already about 350，000 beetle species have been identified， making it one of the biggest animal orders on the planet. It is hard work—crawling around； underground， however， Lemaire points out that beetles are at least easier to catch than some other creatures， for example， butterflies.

For centuries， scientists have catalogued the creatures Europe—the tall and the small， the feathered and the furred. After all， Europe was home to some of the most respected naturalists， including Britains Charles Darwin and Swedens Carl Linnaeus， the biologist who popularized the Latin naming system for every species on Earth. And yet “we only know the tip of the iceberg，” says ecologist Benoit Fontaine of the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. In Europe alone， about 700 new bug （昆虫） species are being discovered each year. Thats about four times the rate of two hundred years ago.
