Colony Collapse蜂群崩壞
Honey bees are social insects that live in colonies.蜜蜂是群居的昆蟲波附。
A bee colony consists of a queen bee, male?drones?and thousands of female worker bees.蜂群由蜂王、雄蜂和成千上萬的工蜂組成昼钻。
Each colony also contains eggs and?immature?bees in various stages of development.每個蜂群中還含有處于不同發(fā)育階段的卵和未成熟的蜜蜂掸屡。
The number of beeswithinacolony depends onseasonalchanges.蜂群中的蜜蜂數(shù)量取決于季節(jié)的變化。
A colony's population increases during the warm seasons and decreases during colder seasons.種群數(shù)量在溫暖季節(jié)增加然评，在寒冷季節(jié)減少仅财。
In recent years, many bee colonies have collapsed, or disappeared.近年來，許多蜂群崩潰或消失碗淌。
A bee colony collapse occurs when a majority of the bees in a colony disappear and leave behind the queen.當蜂群中的大多數(shù)蜜蜂消失并離開蜂王時满着，蜂群就會崩潰。
Some beekeepers have reported losing 30 to 90 percent of their colonies.一些養(yǎng)蜂人報告說贯莺，他們失去了30%到90%的蜂群风喇。
This loss of bee colonies can cause significant problems for farmers who depend on them to pollinate their crops.蜜蜂數(shù)量的減少會給依賴它們?yōu)樽魑锸诜鄣霓r(nóng)民帶來嚴重的問題。

One possible cause is the use of new pesticides.一個可能的原因是使用了新的殺蟲劑耙考。
Otherpossible causesincludeinfectionsfrom viruses, genetic factors, and malnutrition.其他可能的原因包括病毒感染、遺傳因素和營養(yǎng)不良潭兽。
Changing weather patterns?may also play a role as summers get hotter and winters get colder.隨著夏季變熱倦始、冬季變冷，氣候模式的變化也可能起到一定作用山卦。

What may make it more difficult for bees to fight infections? change in weather condition是什么讓蜜蜂更難抵抗感染?天氣變化
Whatever the cause of colony collapse, it's important to understand that many parts of our world are?interdependent.無論蜂群崩潰的原因是什么，重要的是要明白我們世界的許多地方是相互依存的枚碗。
Changes that affect one species may have serious effects on other species.影響一個物種的變化可能對其他物種產(chǎn)生嚴重影響逾一。
A change to our environment can start a chain of events that is difficult to predict.環(huán)境的變化會引發(fā)一系列難以預測的事件。
In any complex system such as the Earth's environment,small changes can have?unforeseen?consequences.在任何復雜的系統(tǒng)中肮雨，比如地球環(huán)境遵堵，微小的變化都可能帶來無法預料的后果。
The danger of unforeseen consequences is something we all need to understand better.
我們都需要更好地理解意外后果的危險怨规。
Things that are interdependent are depend on each other.相互依存的事物是相互依存的陌宿。
