attached t the B&B Hule manages in the Indian castal twn f Vengurla.
Wild edible (可食用的) plants are cmmn in kitchens here. Hule's weed is juicy, which is fund in mangrve frests. Harvesting sme f the plant is helping cnserve the

This bsted the cnfidence t include these fritters in ur restaurant menu," says Hule.
Swamini's ldging huse als serves vegetarian meals and plates f fish and crab surced frm the river. "The satisfactin after the visitrs enjy ur meal is the real currency. We had guests frm Lndn wh were s happy with ur fd that they tk dwn the recipe. Such peple help ur business grw. What mre can we want?" says Hule.

When she first came t Britain as a refugee (难民) frm Nigeria six years ag, Kemi had a three-mnth-ld daughter, a rm in a shared huse and ￡5.39 t survive n each day. Finding mney fr new clthes was ut f the questin.
After fur years, Kemi was granted (给与) refugee status and secured her first jb interview - unsurprisingly, she had nthing t wear. Hwever, she was referred t a small
scial enterprise called Give Yur Best, which asked her her size and what kind f clthes she liked. “And they gave me three beautiful shirts. Thse clthes were like gld t me. They asked me what I actually wanted. That makes yu feel valued."
The initiative was launched by Sl Escbar, wh had spent several years vlunteering at refugee camps in nrthern France. A friend put her in cntact with a husehld f refugee wmen wh culdn't access any clthing. Escbar realised she had surplus (剩余) clthes she culd dnate, and appealed t her friends and netwrks fr help. She was flded with ffers, but didn't want t verlad the wmen with ptentially imprper clthing. "S I thught, if I take phts f all f these items and put them n an Instagram page, they can all chse the things that they actually want."
Eighteen mnths later, Give Yur Best has prcessed almst 11,000 items f clthing, and has mre than 800 refugee wmen apprved t “shp" fr free n its virtual shpfrnt. It is aiming fr much mre, hwever. Having reached the very limit f dnatins and requests it culd handle thrugh Instagram, the enterprise has just launched a new digital platfrm that will allw it t hugely upscale.
Like the hugely successful clthing resale app, clthes are phtgraphed and upladed t Give Yur Best, where custmers select thse they like and dnrs then pst the item. Crucially, hwever, n mney changes hands.
As well as giving chice t its users and minimising fashin waste, Escbar says ne
cnsequence has been the small but intimate (亲密的) cnnectins established between dnr and shpper. Many dnrs chse t include a supprtive nte and a small gift - hugely welcmed by recipients (接受者)， but als a reminder that "n the ther side f yur package, there's a wman wh is yur size and has yur fashin sense, because she's shpping frm yur wardrbe (衣橱)".
28. What's the purpse f the enterprise?

Hneybees fly much lnger distances in the summer than in the spring and autumn t find gd surces f fd, a new study has fund.
Researchers at Sussex University spent tw years decding the "waggle (摇摆) dance" f hneybees, a frm f cmmunicatin by which the bees tell their nestmates where t g t get the best surce f fd t bring back t the hive (蜂箱).
By measuring the angle f the dance in relatin t the sun and the length f time the bee waggled its bdy while mving in a figure f eight pattern, researchers have been able t map the distance and lcatin where bees frage (觅食) frm mnth t mnth.
With a ne secnd waggle equal t a fraging distance f 750 metres, the bees dance language revealed that the area they cvered in search f fd is abut 22 times greater in the summer (July and August) than in spring (March) and six times greater in summer than in the autumn (Octber). In the summer the area they cver is 15.2km sq, cmpared t 0.8km in spring and 5.1km in the autumn.
Hneybees will nt waste valuable time and energy travelling t find fd if they dn't need t, s the researchers say the results shw that the summer is the mst challenging seasn fr bees t cllect the nectar and pllen frm flwers.
"There is a large quantity f flwers in the spring and autumn, but it is harder fr them t lcate gd blcks f flwers in the summer because agricultural intensificatin
means there are fewer wildflwers in the cuntryside fr bees," said Frances Ratnieks, authr f the study.
The researchers say the results can be used t fcus effrts t help bees better. "The bees are telling us where they are fraging s we can nw understand hw best t help them by planting mre flwers fr them in the summer," said Ratnieks.
32. What is the recent research mainly abut?
A. Surces f hneybee fd. B. The hneybee dance language.
C. Hneybees' eating behaviur. D. Relatinship between hneybees.
33. What makes summer the mst challenging seasn fr bees t find fd?
A. The high wind. B. The strng heat.
C. Lengthening days. D. Shrtage f flwers.
34. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut cncerning the research finding?
A. Its appeal t the public. B. Its practical applicatin.
C. Expectatins fr future studies. D. Scientists with new perspectives.
35. Which is the mst suitable title fr the text?
A. Hneybees are really highly intelligent
B. Scientists decde hneybee' waggle dance'
C. Lack f fd surces puts hneybees at risk
D. Why summers are bad news fr hneybees
