The queen is that way,“ said one honey bee to another. “Pass it oil” Honeybees can't speak, of course, but scientists have found that the insects combine teamwork andchemicalstorelaythequeen,slocationtotherestofthecommunity,revealinganextraordinarymea nsoflong distance, mass communication.Individualhoneybeescommunicatewiththechemicalcalledpheromones 信 息 素 ,whichscientistshavelong known. But just howthese individualsignalsworktogethertogathertensofthousands ofbeesaroundaqueen hasremained amystery.In the new study, Dieu My Nguyen, a scientist at the University of Colorado, and hiscolleagues focused on a colony of western honey bees, the most common honey bee species intheworld.Theresearcherssetupaflat, pizzabox-sizearena （天线）with a transparent ceilingjn which the bees could walk around, but not fly. They put the queen bee into a cage on oneside and released the worker honey bees on the other. The scientists then recorded the insects9 movements from above with a camera and an AI software tracking bees that were releasingpheromones.Once the first worker honey bees located the queen, they began to gather chains of evenlyspacedbeesthatextendedoutwardfromthequeen,witheachbeesendingoutpheromonesto its neighbor down the line. The findings are the first direct observations of this collectivecommunication in honey bees. Like smelly bread crumbs, the branching communication linesguided far-off honey bees back to the queen's location-a feat no single bee could achievealone.Mark Carroll, an insect biologist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, cautions that thework was done in a closed, practically 2D space. In reality, he notes, honey bee colonies are3D, and they often have to fight with elements like wind and rain, which make communicatingmore complicated. "The next step will be to observe natural honey bee swarms and see iftheyeactuallydoing this." he says.26. Whatis thefocusofthenewstudy?A. Whyworkerbees gatheraroundaqueenbee.B.

The internet giant announcesthatusersofitsAndroidphonesinNewZealandwillreceivewarningsofdamagingearthqua kes about to strike their locations. And those earthquakes will be detected not by theusualseismometers地震仪，butbythe phonesthemselves.Traditionalwarnings,eveniftheyonly comesecondsbeforeaquakehits,canbuypeople enough time to survive the quake. These systems are practical, but they are difficult andexpensive to develop. One system, known as ShakeAlert, cost $60 million to build and needs more than $30 million annually to operate. Such an earthquake warning system as developedbyGoogle can cutdown this expenseand hasgreatpotentialglobally.A phone-based network makes earthquake detection possible because modern devices areequipped with motion sensors that monitor movement, such as when a user picks up or rotatesthe phone. Those sensors can also be programmed to detect the distinctive shaking caused bythe pressureandwavesofearthquakes.Googlehasbuiltquake-sensingcapabilitiesdirectlyintoitsmorethan2billionactiveAndroid phones. When a Androidphone detectsan earthquakesignal,itsendsword,alongwith a rough location, to a central server and more than 100 phones need to sound the alarmbeforeGooglebelievesit.Androidphoneshavebeenpubliclydetectingearthquakesworldwide since last year and have detected more than 1000 quakes. The warnings haveperformedwellintermsofspeedandaccuracywhencomparedwithShakeAlert.Regardlessofit, fhlsealarms haven'tbeen too haidtoweed out.The Android system still has a lot to prove, including its ability to detect quakes that startin less populated regions. New Zealand will pose a particular challenge, because much of itspopulation is gathered in a few cities. That means phones might not warn of a quake that startsfar from downtown until after the trembling has already begun. Until the system's performanceisclear, Google shouldbe cautious ofpromising too much.29. Whatcanwe learnfromthetext?A. Traditionalearthquakewarningsareineffective.B.
