The bees, spotting the food beneath the screen, learned to pull the ＂flowers＂ out by pulling the string with their legs and feet to be able to get to it.From another group of bees given the chance to solve the task without any training, only two of 110 were successful.Another group of bees was then allowed to observe the trained bees pulling the strings, and 60 percent of them successfully learned the skill. Finally, trained bees were put in colonies, and the scientists found the technique spread successfully to a majority of the co lony’s worker bees.Lars Chittka, a Queen Mary University professor who guided the project, said the team is interested in figuring out the brain processes behind the bees’ learning and teaching skills.1.What does the underlined word ＂exclusive＂ in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Ordinary.B. Unique.C. Beneficial.D. Widespread.2.What did the researchers find about bees?A. Bees learn best in insects.B. Bees are as clever as birds.C. Bees are born good learners.D.

How bees’ brain work.4.What may be the best title for the text?A. Small bees, great abilitiesB. Bees can learn and teachC. Bees are smarterD.
