[IELTS Task 1] Process of silkworm life cycle and silk cloth production
I take this question from Cambridge book 6, test 3.
This is my essay:
"""
The figures illustrate the stages of a silkworm’s life and the process of producing silk cloth.
There are four stages in the life cycle of a silkworm, from eggs to mature moth. The production of silk cloth undergoes 6 steps, from silkworm cocoon to silk material.
Silkworms begin their life on mulberry leaves as eggs then 10 days later, they transform to larvae. Silkworm larvae consume the mulberry leaves as food. After 4 to 6 weeks, silkworms start to produce silk thread and it takes 3 to 6 days before they become cocoons. The worms stay inside the cocoon for 16 days before they completely come out to be adult moths. Now, the moths will start a new silkworm life cycle when they gave birth to (or lay) new eggs.
To start the process of silk cloth production, silkworm’s cocoon will be selected and then boiled in water. Next, the cocoon will be unwinded and each cocoon may be obtained from 300 to 900 meters of thread. Followed by unwinding, threads are twisted to be bigger and longer fibers. Weaving fibers is the last step of producing silk cloth. Silk fiber and silk cloth will be dyed to have different color.
