BEES

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000 known species of bees in nine recognized families though many are undescribed and the actual number is probably higher. They are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.

Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in males and 12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have two pairs of wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or caste has relatively short wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are wingless.

The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose workers are about 2.1 mm (5/64") long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee whose females can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae, or sweat bees, are the most common type of bee in the Northern Hemisphere, though they are small and often mistaken for wasps or flies.

Letter

Dear Sir,

I’m sick of seeing so much rubbish on the roadside. Lastweek,I drove from Woy Woy to Gosford and saw over 200 soft drink cans and 80 bottles on the readside. The recycling and ” Do the right thing ” campaigns obviously have not worked. Maybe the police should set up “litter” cameras as well as speed cameras to catch motorists who pollute our roads. In South Australia, you pay a deposit of five cents on cans and bottles and this encourages people to return them rather than dump them. New South Wales should introduce this idea immediatly.

Sincerly,

W.Thompson

2. Where does Thompson live ?

The lion narrated him the pathetic story. The Jackal instantly made a way out from the sand but the lion was unable to move his feet. As he was set in the same posture for last several days, his body became stiff. The Jackal understood the condition f the Lion and helped him to get out of the mud with an extra effort. The lion was really thankful to Jackal for his kind help. He was very happy to get free after so many days.

The Lion appreciated the effort made by the Jackal. He offered the Jackal to live close to him and also promised to give food the lion whenever he caught food. The Jackal accepted the offer and started living with the lion, Thus, they lived happily sharing the food. With the passing time, they expanded their families. The Lion had cubs and the Jackal had kid jackals. Both, the lion and the Jackal were passing their days happily. They didn’t have any idea that their friendship was not liked by their families.

The Jackal went to the Lion and asked, “I helped you without any thought in return. You had asked me to live with you, so I started living with you. Now, if you don’t want me to live with you, you should have told me yourself. What did you involve your wife and cubs to convey this?”. The Lion was shocked to hear such words. He said, “My dear Friend, what are you saying? I don’t any problem with you or your friendship”. He assured the Jackal that he had no such ill-feelings for the friendship between them.

The Lion also assured for that he would talk to talk to the lioness and solve the whole matter. The jackal was intelligent and understood the situation. He said to the lion, “I know you are sincere, but our families could not exactly respond the same level of the friendship. So, let us stay apart and meet often as friends. We could also hunt together. It would be better, if our families stay apart”. The lion agreed to the proposal with a heavy heart.
