Bees live in hives that can contain around 50000 of the insects,as much as the population of some small towns.One pound of honey takes the industrious（勤劳的） bees roughly(大约) two million flower visits to create.Bees typically eat nectar（花蜜）,but during the winter they do eat the honey that they have been storing for that purpose.Honey bee hives are home to large numbers of nectar-collecting workers,some breeding drones,and one queen.Out of all the millions of speceies of insects(昆虫), four species of bee are the only ones that produce food for humans.
