Honey Bees

Honey Bees Buzz. Buzz. We visited a farmer today. He is not a regular farmer. He's a beekeeper. His honey bees make honey. I love this sweet sticky treat! Honey bees are the only insects that make food for humans. How do they do it? They gather a sweet liquid from flowers and turn it into honey. They live in a hive and travel many kilometres in search of flowers. Honey bees travel more than 80, 000 kilometres and visit about 2 million flowers to make just half a kilogram of honey!

蜜蜂 嗡嗡 嗡嗡。我们今天拜访了一位农民。他不是一个普通的农民。他是一个养蜂人。他的蜜蜂酿蜜。我喜欢这种甜食! 蜜蜂是唯一为人类制造食物的昆虫。他们是怎么做到的?它们从花中收集一种甜甜的液体，然后把它变成蜂蜜。它们生活在蜂箱里，为了寻找花朵，它们要跋涉数公里。蜜蜂要走8万多公里，采约200万朵花，才能酿出半公斤蜂蜜!

Does the beekeeper get stung a lot?Well, he wears special clothing for protection. He has a special hat with a net that covers his face. He wears gloves and a shirt with long sleeves. He uses a little machine that makes smoke. He says this helps to keep the bees calm. It was amazing to see him work with thousands of bees flying around!

养蜂人经常被蛰吗?他穿特别的衣服来保护自己。他戴着一顶特殊的帽子，帽子上有网罩住他的脸。他戴着手套，穿着长袖衬衫。他用了一个制造烟雾的小机器。他说，这有助于保持蜜蜂的平静。看到他和成千上万飞来飞去的蜜蜂一起工作真是太神奇了!
