Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment (娱乐) of the young and old. What are people eating now? People are still eating food.

It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers. People now mainly eat vegetables. You see, as the number of people grows, the number of animals decreases. So most people begin to protect animals. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illnesses. No one has to be ill any more. 47.

But do you know that they keep us all alive? Every year on May 20, it’s World Bee Day. It’s a day to thank bees for all they do. Without bees, we wouldn’t have any food! When bees fly from plant to plant, they carry pollen (花粉). The pollen makes new plants grow. It is said that three-fourths of the world’s flowering plants and about 35% of the world’s food crops depend on bees and other animals to grow. Bees not only help flowers grow. They also help fruit and vegetables grow. It’s also a day to learn more about the problems bees are facing. “Loss of natural habitat (栖息地), getting sick from chemicals (化学物质) used on crops, and higher temperatures with climate (气候) change are making the number of bees drop,” said an organization of the United Nations. People are now looking to modern technology to help save the bees. One example is the robotic bee project called RoboRoyale. The European Commission offers money for it. The project makes robot bees to help feed and look after the queen bee. This will get the queen bee to lay more eggs and make more bees. 71. When is World Bee Day? It’s ____________________ every year. 72. What do bees do when they fly from plant to plant? They ____________________ when they fly from plant to plant. 73.

It’s a day to thank bees for all they do. Without bees, we wouldn’t have any food! When bees fly from plant to plant, they carry pollen (花粉). The pollen makes new plants grow. It is said that three-fourths of the world’s flowering plants and about 35% of the world’s food crops depend on bees and other animals to grow. Bees not only help flowers grow. They also help fruit and vegetables grow. It’s also a day to learn more about the problems bees are facing. “Loss of natural habitat (栖息地), getting sick from chemicals (化学物质) used on crops, and higher temperatures with climate (气候) change are making the number of bees drop,” said an organization of the United Nations. People are now looking to modern technology to help save the bees. One example is the robotic bee project called RoboRoyale. The European Commission offers money for it. The project makes robot bees to help feed and look after the queen bee. This will get the queen bee to lay more eggs and make more bees. 71. When is World Bee Day?
