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

will be your turn, I will eat you too, stupid parrot”. After that he left the
chicken house.
The
next day, the man came back to the chicken house. He opened the door and was
very surprised. He could not believe what he saw at the chicken house. There
were three death chickens on the floor. At the moment, the parrot was standing

questions 30to 34
Orangutans
or Pongo pygmaeus belong to the Primate order. The orangutan spends most
of its time in trees. Each evening it builds a new treetop nest. They are
endangered because of habitat lost and poachers keep on killing, owning, and
exporting orangutans.They only live on the island of Borneo and in the northern
corner of the island of Sumatra.
Orangutans
are characterized by rough, long, reddish-brown fur. Male orangutans are about
95 cm (37 in) in length and about 77 kg (170 lb) in weight. Females are
smaller, reaching about 78 cm (31 in) in height and weighing only about37 kg
(81 lb). The male has puffy cheeks and a hanging throat-pouch. This pouch
contains air sacks that help produce a groaning, bubbling call, which can be
heard at least 1 km (0.6 mi) away.
Half
of the orangutan’s diet consists of fruit, but they also eat young leaves, soft
inner bark, termites, eggs, and occasionally monkeys. When a female is ready to
mate, she will seek out an adult male. Orangutan are mammals; females give
birth to a single infant about once every four to eight years. The gestational
period for orangutans is just under nine months, nearly the same as in human
beings. Infants stay very close to their mothers for the first three years
until they don’t consume their mother’s milk.

Little
Brother, Little Sister
Maltreated by their stepmother, who
was a witch, a little brother and sister fled into the woods. After running
for a while, the brother said: 'I'm so thirsty. Let's find a spring and have
a drink.'
As the young boy bent down to
drink, his sister heard a voice which said: 'Who drinks from me will turn
into a fawn.' it was the witch! Too late, the sister tried to prevent her
brother from drinking. The young boy changed at once into a fawn. In tears,
the little girl made a lead and collar out of her belt, and led the fawn off
into the woods. There they found an abandoned cottage and lived together, far
from any danger.
One day, however, the king was
hunting in the woods, and he spied the fawn, which could not resist the urge
to wander away from the cottage. The king and his hunters chased the fawn all
the way back home. There, the king followed it into the cottage, where he
found a young girl stroking the frightened animal. She was so beautiful and
gentle that the king fell in love with her at once. He asked her to be his
wife, and his words caused the maiden to cry for joy. When one of her tears
fell on the fawn, it changed back to her brother once more. Their goodness
and love had overcome the witch's evil spell, and they lived safely and
happily with the king for ever after.
