Honeybees are great dancers,but they don't just do it for fun.Scientists have long
known that honeybees wiggle (their bodies.It is their way of sharing information.
When a bee starts dancing,it steps forward.At the same time,it wiggles side to side.It
keeps doing'this while it moves around.They dance just like number eight and scientists call
this“waggle dance'”.It helps other bees find food.The bee's position(方位)tells them
which way to fly.The more a bee wiggles,the farther away the food is.The longer it repeats
these moves,the tastier the food is.
Now a new study shows that boneybees don't have these dance skills at birth.Young
bees learn them by watching the older bees:In March 2023,scientists from the University of
California.San Diego,published these findings in a scientific magazine.
The study finds that bees can learn by imitating (each other.This is called "social
learning".Many anmals learn in this way.like monkeys and birds,but most of these animals
have bigger brains(大a脑),Bees have much smaller brains.
To know how bees learn the wsggle dance,scientists recorded videos of honeybees in a
lab.They compared (two groups of young bees which were 10 days old.In the first
group,young bees could watch older ones dance.In the second group,young bees could not
watch older dancers.They found that the ones in Group 1 were better dancers while the ones
in Group 2 were not good at the waggle dance.

being a volunteer.Last Saturday,our school launched a volunteer activity to pro-
tect city environment.We visited the park near the school.And we did lots of
meaningful things,such as cleaning benches and sports equipment.collecting

that we can live in a beautiful and healthy environment.
