2、 their nestmates where to go to get the best source of food to bring back to the hive (蜂箱).By measuring the angle of the dance in relation to the sun and the length of time the bee waggled its body while moving in a figure of eight pattern, researchers have been able to map the distance and location

3、 where bees forage (觅食)from month to month.With a one second waggle equal to a foraging distance of 750 metres, the bees dance language revealed that the area they covered in search of food is about 22 times greater in the summer (July and August) than in spring (March) and six times greater in summ

6、ravelling to find food if they donz t need to, so the researchers say the results show that the summer is the most challenging season for bees to collect the nectar and pollen from flowers.“There is a large quantity of flowers in the spring and autumn, but it is harder for them to locate good blocks

7、 of flowers in the summer because agricultural intensification means there are fewer wildflowers in the countryside for bees,“ said Frances Ratnieks, author of the study.The researchers say the results can be used to focus efforts to help bees better. The bees are telling us where they are foraging

8、so we can now understand how best to help them by planting more flowers for them in the summer； said Ratnieks.12. What is the recent research mainly about?A. Sources of honeybee food.B. The honeybee dance language.C. Honeybees eating behaviour.D. Relationship between honeybees.13. What makes summer

9、the most challenging season for bees to find food?A. The high wind.B. The strong heat.C. Lengthening days.D. Shortage of flowers.14.

11、has vast and costly facilities to maintain. Wells, other equipment, and thousands of kilometers of pipelines must be inspected and repaired.Now, cutting-edge underwater drones （无人机）and robots are being developed that could make the work safer and cheaper. Among them is Eelume, a six-meter-longz snak

12、e-like robot equipped with sensors and a camera at each end. It can be kept at a station at depths of up to half a kilometer for six months, without being brought back to the surface. The robot can travel up to 20 kilometers before needing to return to its station to recharge.Maintenance work at man

13、y deep-water wells and pipeline systems is already carried out by unmanned vehicles. But these vehicles typically need to be transported to the offshore site on a fully crewed ship and then remotely operated from onboard the surface ship. That can cost up to $100,000 per day, according to Pal Liljeb

14、ack, chief technology officer with Eelume Subsea Intervention, which developed the robot. Liljeback says that by enabling the robot to become a subsea resident living at a station, it can be mobilized at any time to do inspections, thereby reducing the need for costly surface ships.Eelume can work a

15、utonomously on tasks assigned from a control room onshore, and send back video and data. Its snake-like design allows it to work in small spaces and wriggle （扭动）its body to stay in place in strong currents. By staying under the sea, it can carry out tasks whatever the conditions on the surface of th

16、e ocean.The global underwater robotics market is expected to be worth around $7 billion in 2025, according to analysts, and other companies are in the process of commercializing new deep-sea drone and robot technology. Eelume Subsea Intervention will carry out final testing on the seabed later this

17、year at the Asgard oil and gas field. It expects to put its first snake robots into use next year and hopes to have up to 50 in oceans around the world by 2027.12. What is one feature of Eelume?A.

They require transportation to and from work.D. They have to work on a fully crewed ship all the time.14. What can
