They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-mak

41、ing power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist of Stanford University, says, “Ants arent smart. Ant colonies are.” The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are qu

42、ite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity of learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others

43、 to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement

44、to communicate with each other. Worker bees send message to each other by means of a “dance”. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new hoe for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicat

45、es the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees ca

46、n be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent America research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants. Th

47、ey observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complex actions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting

48、of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.1、What do ants and bees have in common?AThey make use of collective intelligence.BThey live in similar-sized colonies.CThey have small leadership

49、groups that make all decisions.DThey use the same method to communicate with each other.2、What docs the speed of a bees dance indicate?AThe distance to a neighboring colony.BThe quality of a new colony location.CThe discovery of a new food source.DThe direction to a potential food source.3、In paragr
