4. READ THESE ARTICLE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

Would we die if honeybees didn't exist?

Honeybees around the world are disappearing fast.
Honeybees don't just give us honey and wax. A lot of the food we eat is directly or indirectly
provided by bees, too. Why is that? Because they pollinate the fruit and vegetables that we eat.
They also pollinate the grasses and cereals that cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens eat, and that we
then eat ourselves.
But honeybees around the world are disappearing fast. Pesticides, parasites, disease, and loss of
habitat are all responsible. If there weren't any honeybees, what would we do? If they
disappeared completely, would we starve?
Well, if that ever happened, some other creatures could help fill the gap. Other kinds of bees and
some kinds of flies are good at pollinating a wide variety of plants and flowers. Butterflies are
quite good, too, though not as good as honeybees. And, of course, there are always humans. We
could do it ourselves! But if we did it ourselves, it would take a lot of time, and it would cost a
lot of money, making food very expensive. So, while we probably wouldn't starve if honeybees
disappeared, life would be a lot more difficult. So let's protect those bees as much as we can!
