summarize the two main ways in which different types of spiders catch their prey. support your answer with at least two details from the passage.

many spiders have a clever tool for catching prey: a web made of silk. the spider produces silk from glands in the abdomen. the spider uses its two hind legs to “reel out” a fine strand of silk, and then it starts to weave its web. spiders make different kinds of silk. the yellow and black garden spider makes a strong, stretchy silk to build the basic framework of its web. then it adds a sticky variety that makes it hard for a trapped insect to get away. spider silk, which is made of protein, is very flexible but stronger than steel! the garden spider weaves an elegant snare called an orb web. this web is basically round, with spokes like a bicycle wheel and many strands connecting the spokes. some orb weavers lie in wait for their prey at the center of the web. other attach a tripwire to the center of the web. then they hide nearby, holding onto the line. when the insect struggles, the line vibrates. then the spider swings into action. a coating of oil on its feet it glide across the sticky threads of web. when it reaches its prey, the spider usually bites it, and the bite is full of venom. as the insect stops struggling, the spider wraps its meal in silk. other spiders weave different types of webs. some build triangle webs, which look like a section of an orb web. the spider waits for its prey at one end corner of the web. others build small sheet webs between tall blades of grass or branches or shrubs. directly above this sheet, the spider may spin a web of non sticky threads. the net causes a flying insect to lose its balance and fall onto the sheet, where the spider is waiting. finally, many indoor spiders build tangle webs, or cobwebs, often in the corner of the room. they may look messy, but they are effective in catching prey. about half of all spiders do not build webs to catch prey. spiders such as the jumping spider and the wolf spider are called wandering spiders. they find hiding places and wait for passing prey. unlike a web-builder, this hunter has excellent eyesight. it pounces on insects and stuns them with a bite. then the wanderer settles down for a nice lunch.
