Gallinule is a kind of bird, "small aquatic birds" refers to "gallinules".
desirable?
D.
"People"" when used as singular means 民族。
"are" is redundant here. but you can say "all the simple tools THAT are ever
devised." Note that "that" makes a difference.
Noun can be used as adjective. "glossy" means "smooth and shining; reflecting
luster from a smooth surface; highly polished; lustrous". hehe, copyied from
web dictionary :)
It is a passive clause, I dont think adding "on" would make it any bett

desirous == desiring; having or characterized by desires;
desirable == to be desired
from the context, it should be "desirable" which means that (we)
desire/welcome
ladybugs in the garden;
Should be "person" bah :-) people when single stands for "ethnic group"
should be "devised", not "are devised". It may be a shortened form
of "(that has) ever (been) devised"
