Bees live in a house that is called a hive. There are three kinds of bees: workers, drones (雄蜂) queens. Only one queen bee can live in each hive. If she is lost or dead, the other bees their work.
Workers are very clever and busy. They all join together small rooms called cells of wax for their honey. Each worker bee does its own work. Some go out and collect honey from the flowers; stay at home and work inside the hive. The cells have six sides are made by worker bees. Did you ever look into a glass hive and see them while at work? It is to see how busy they always are. Before winter comes, all the drones are driven from the hive they don’t eat the honey they did not collect.
It is not safe children to be too close to bees. Bees have painful stings they use in their defense (防御).
