After lunch, you go down the hall to your home office. Here you have everything you need to do
your work. Thanks to your information screen and your latest generation computer, you needn’t go to the

Bees, classified into over 10,000 species, are insects found in almost every part of the world except the
northernmost and southernmost regions. One commonly known species is the honeybee, the only bee that
produces honey and wax. Humans use the wax in making candles, lipsticks, and other products, and they
use the honey as a food. While gathering the nectar and pollen with which they make honey, bees are
simultaneously helping to fertilize the flowers on which they land. Many fruits and vegetables would not
survive if bees did not carry the pollen from blossom to blossom. Bees live in a structured environment
Trang 3/5 - Mã đ thi 485ề
and social structure within a hive, which is a nest with storage space for the honey. The different types of
bees each perform a unique function. The worker bee carries nectar to the hive in a special stomach called
a honey stomach, other workers make beeswax and shape it into a honeycomb, which is a waterproof
mass of six-sided compartments, or cells. The queen lays eggs in completed cells. As the workers build
more cells, the queen lays more eggs.
All workers, like the queen, are female, but the workers are smaller than the queen. The male
honeybees are called drones; they do no work and cannot sting. They are developed from unfertilized
eggs, and their only job is to impregnate a queen. The queen must be fertilized in order to lay worker
eggs. During the season, when less honey is available and the drones is of no further use, the workers
block the drones from eating the honey so that they will starve to death.
