    Researchers in the field of animal behavior havelong been interested in the ways animals and insects

    communicate. The most recent findings show thathoneybees communicated mostly through dances. Byperforming certain dance routines, the workers let theother members know of the location of a food source, itsdirection, and its distance. If the workers spot pollen and

    nectar in the flowers near its hive, they do the circular

    dance. On the other hand, when a food site is remote,they perform a figure-eight dance, in which the slow and

    fast tempo movements will inform the other members ofthe distance to the food source. For instance, a slowwaggle of the lower part of the abdomen signifies a far-

    distance, demanding flight. Conversely, a rapid waggleindicates a within-reach trip. Variations in the dance formexist among different species. The bees orientation onthe comb is a key directional cue for other bees. In the

    absence of sun light on the comb, the bees waggle movingstraight up. If the suns polarized light penetrates thehive, the bees can orient themselves toward the direction

    of the suns ray.

    more than a hundred years ago. Companies now sell

    million of bottles and cans of Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, and

    other colas every day. The cola flavor in the drinks

    comes from the cola or kola nut. These nuts grow ontrees in the hottest parts of the earth. Kola nuts have

    caffeine in them. Coffee, tea, and chocolate have

    caffeine, too. Caffeine makes some people feel nervous.

    Now there are also cola drinks without caffeine.

    Cola and other soft drinks have carbon dioxide

    (CO2) in the water. This gas makes bubbles. There is also

    a lot of sugar in these drinks. Some soft drinks have no

    sugar but artificial sweetener. It is possible that these

    artificial sweeteners are harmful to the body.

    One of the most dangerous drugs for pregnant

    woman to consume is alcohol. Because alcohol is delivered

    quickly into the blood and passes quickly into the tissues

    and membranes, the human fetus is particularly

    vulnerable to its effects. In fact, the negative effects on

    a fetus are so pronounced that babies born afterexposure to alcohol are said to be suffering from the

    fetal alcohol syndrome.

    As a pregnant woman drink alcohol, the alcohol is

    passed into her bloodstream almost simultaneously.

    Moreover, because the bloodstream of the fetus is

    inextricably tied to that of the mother, the alcohol

    passed directly into the bloodstream of the fetus as well.

    And, what is more, the concentration of alcohol in the

    For the mother, this concentration is not a problem

    because her liver can remove one ounce of alcohol from her

    system per hour. However, the fetuss liver is not

    completely developed (how developed it is depends on its

    stage of development). The rate at which it is able to

    eliminate the alcohol from the blood of the fetus is much

    slower. Eventually, the alcohol will be returned to themothers system by passing across the placenta, but the

    process is slow. By the time this takes place, major

    neurological damage may have already occurred. Research

    has shown that as little as one drink of alcohol can produce

    significant, irreversible damage to the fetus.

    Babies born after exposure to alcohol generally

    exhibit facial distortion, inability to concentrate, and

    difficulty in remembering. Simply speaking, it is imperative

    that pregnant woman avoid alcohol.

    PASSAGE 5To be truly happy is a question for how we begin

    and not of how we end, of what we want and not of what

    we have. An inspiration is a joy forever, a possession as

    solid as an estate, a fortune which we can never exhaust

    and which give us, year by year, an income of pleasurable

    activity. To have many of these is to be spiritually rich.

    Life is only a dull and ill-directed theater unless we have

    some interest in the play; and to those who have neither

    art nor science. The world is a mere arrangement of colorsor a rough footway where they may very well break their

    leg.

    It is because of his own desires and curiosities that

    a man is charmed by the look of thing and people, and

    that he wakes up every morning with a renewed appetite

    for work and pleasure. Desire and curiosity are the two

    eyes through which he sees the world in constant changing

    interesting. Man may lose his whole estate and be reduced

    PASSAGE 5To be truly happy is a question for how we begin

    and not of how we end, of what we want and not of what

    we have. An inspiration is a joy forever, a possession as

    solid as an estate, a fortune which we can never exhaust

    and which give us, year by year, an income of pleasurable

    activity. To have many of these is to be spiritually rich.

    Life is only a dull and ill-directed theater unless we have

    some interest in the play; and to those who have neither

    art nor science. The world is a mere arrangement of colorsor a rough footway where they may very well break their

    leg.

    It is because of his own desires and curiosities that

    a man is charmed by the look of thing and people, and

    that he wakes up every morning with a renewed appetite

    for work and pleasure. Desire and curiosity are the two

    eyes through which he sees the world in constant changing

    colors; it is they that make women beautiful of fossils

    interesting. Man may lose his whole estate and be reduced

    to poverty, but if he keeps these two amulets he is still

    rich in possibilities of pleasure.
