Prog. notes: 蚂蚁，属膜翅目。是一种有社会生活习性的昆虫。在万千生物中，它可能显得很渺小，但在一亿年的物种进化中，庞大的恐龙已淹没在历史的尘埃里，蚂蚁却生存到了今天，除了依靠它惊人的团结协作力，还有本能中强烈的忧患意识。
在人类社会中，忧患意识会影响一个民族发展的高度，而“蚂蚁搬家”恰恰体现了强烈的忧患意识。如此看来，无论是在微观的昆虫世界，还是浩瀚的历史长河中，“蚂蚁”精神都带给了我们一些小小的思考和启示。

The ant, belonging to Hymenoptera, is a kind of insects which has social life habits. Among thousands of species, the ant seems negligible. However, in Species Evolution of one hundred million years, even though the enormous dinosaur has been extinct for a long time as dusts of history being submerged, the ant exists till today depending on their instinctive awareness of unexpected besides amazing cooperation.
In human society, consciousness could influence the height of a nation’s development, and “ants moving” embody the consuming consciousness precisely. So, no matter in the microcosm of insects or the vast ocean of history, the spirit of “ant moving” brings us some valuable inspirations without doubt.
