12．Most people have heard the sound of bees among flowers．Bees live almost everywhere in the world except in the Arctic areas．
Many kinds of agriculture depend on these small，social insects．Without bees，fruit and nut growers as well as many other farmers would not have a crop．
There are more than 20，000kinds of bees．But only honey bees make enough honey for people to use．Honeybees are highly-organized social insects．They work together in a group，called a colony（群体）．Each colony lives in a hive（蜂房）．It contains one queen bee--she lays all the eggs from which the members of the colony come．Each colony has only a few hundred males，called drones．The majority of all bees in a colony are workers，which are all females．
Bees even have a special stomach，called a honey stomach，which is used to store sweet fluid that the bees gather from flowers．Bees also have long hairs on their body and legs．These hairs capture pollen（花粉） as bees go from flower to flower．Some of the pollen is taken back to the hive．Some，however，is passed to the next flower．This is how many plants are fertilized．Pollen is the reproductive material of plants．Many important agricultural crops depend on bees for fertilization．
Inside their hives，bees store sweet liquid from flowers and pollen as well．They may even gather sweet liquid from some other kinds of insects．These kinds of sweet liquid are also stored in the hive．
Bees make honey through a process．They add liquid from their own mouths to sweet liquid into simple sugar．As the honey is stored，it dries．It becomes thicker and darker．
Although bees are often thought of as honey makers，they provide a surprising number of products．Also，their greatest economic value is in fertilizing crops-not in making honey．

In what has been called his‘final career move'，Plácido Domingo announced on 25 January 2007 that in 2009 he would take on one of Verdi‘s most demanding baritone（男中音）roles，singing the title role in Simon Boccanegra．The first performance was at Berlin State Opera on October 24，followed by 29 other performances during 2009/2010 at major opera houses around the world．He would，however，continue to sing tenor roles beforehand and afterwards．
On 16-17 April 2008 he sang during the visit of Pope Benedict XVI at Nationals Park and at the Italian embassy in Washington D．C． Since 1990 Plácido Domingo has received many awards and honors for his achievement in the field of music and in recognition of his many benefit concerts and contributions to various charities．
