Our lives would not be the same without bees. Bees help plants grow. Many of these plants provide us with food. What would happen if there were no bees? Some fruits and vegetables that we enjoy could not grow. Bees are wonderful creatures*.
But now the number of bees is getting lower and lower. Scientists worry that bees may die off. How can we solve it? One answer is to make our gardens friendly to bees.
Making our gardens bee- friendly can increase the number of bees. Planting a bee garden is a great idea. These gardens provide bees with nectar*. A successful bee garden would have flowers from spring to fall. The garden would have all kinds of plants that are closely grouped together.
Many people believe that all bees live in hives. In fact, some bees dig into the ground. There they build nests and lay eggs. People lay wood pieces or other things on the ground. Bees can not dig nests when these materials cover the ground. Here is another good way to help bees. When you are working outside, leave loose dirt* in flower beds and gardens.
Some bees' nests are in old pieces of wood while others' in holes, in buildings or in trees. Gardens can provide spaces like these for bees. Trees or walls that stop wind are a good idea. And cool areas also can help bees get away from the hot sun. Bee gardens also provide bees with water. Bees need water just like people do
Making a garden friendly for bees is far from a useless task. The results are worth* the efforts*. A bee- friendly garden is beautiful and colorful. Most importantly, it helps to keep bees healthy and happy.
Here are some students' ideas about a good friend.
I think a good friend should be honest. That is more important than any other thing. If a friend isn't honest, he may lose his friends' trust. —Cindy |
I think a good friend has to be generous. Here "generous" doesn't mean he has to give his friends his lunch money or his clothes. It means he should share his ideas and feelings with his friends. —Jerry |
