小蜜蜂 嗡嗡嗡BUSY BEES
信不信嗡嗡嗡的蜜蜂讓你我生活更加美好！”Bee”-lieve it or not, bees make your life better
如果你走近繁花盛開的花園，會聽到很多蜜蜂發出嗡嗡聲。
有些人怕蜜蜂，總是躲得老遠，但蜜蜂的益處可不少。
蜜蜂是自然界最有成效的蜂蜜釀造者。
這些看似永不疲倦的昆蟲從花朵中採集花蜜，將花蜜放在一個特殊囊中。
等囊一裝滿，蜜蜂便會返回蜂巢，將花蜜交給工蜂。
然後，工蜂再將花蜜搬到蜂窩，開始釀造蜂蜜。
通常一磅重的蜂蜜會需要二百萬朵花的花蜜。
蜜蜂在沒有鮮花的冬天以蜂蜜為食；而，牠們不是唯一喜歡蜂蜜的生物。
人類也喜歡蜂蜜的甜味且還將其運用於多種其他用途。
很多國家興盛的蜂蜜產業都是仰賴健康的蜜蜂族群。
蜜蜂從花叢中一朵一朵採集花蜜時，也能順勢將花粉傳播開來；這個過程稱作「授粉」，對許多作物都至關重要。
沒有了蜜蜂，人類將沒有什麼食物可吃。
全世界三分之一的糧食生產都倚賴在蜜蜂的身上。
If you walk near a flower garden in bloom, you'll hear the hum of hundreds of bees. ome people fear bees and stay away from them, but they are beneficial. Honeybees are nature's most productive honey producers. These seemingly tireless creatures gather nectar from flowers, which they store in a special sac. When it's full, the bees return to their hive and pass the nectar to worker bees. The worker bees then transfer the nectar to honeycombs and make honey from it. Nectar from 2 million flowers is needed to make a pound of honey. Bees consume honey over the winter
when no flowers are available, and they're not the only ones that like it. People also love the sweet taste of honey and use it in multiple ways. The flourishing honey
industry in many countries depends on a healthy bee population. As bees go from flower to flower collecting the sweet liquid, they also spread pollen. This process, called pollination, is vital to many crops. Without bees, people wouldn't have muchtireless to eat. A third of the world’s food production depends on them.
