Bee keepers

Is this man wearing strange clothes?

No, those aren't clothes. He is covered by thousands of bees. He has covered himself in sugar so that the bees will land on him. Most people would be scared that all those bees would sting them, but this man is a bee farmer and knows that he has nothing to be afraid of.

Bees will not sting you unless you make them angry. The bees in this picture get to eat the sugar on the man, so they are happy.

The man is happy too, because he makes money by selling the honey that the bees make. The only problem is, how will he get all of the bees off of him?

The words of the day

to sting

叮咬 (ding1 yao3)

to land

降落 (jiang4 luo4)

Flying in airplanes scares me, so I am always happy when my plane lands.

我很怕坐飛機,所以每次飛機降落時我都很開心。
