(phone ringing) - Hi, it's Doug.

Honey, that sweet delicious stuff that just tastes so good.

There's nothing quite like honey, is there?

Syrup is similar in color, and it's sweet, but it tastes different.

Someone named Linda has a question about honey.

Let's give her a call now.

(phone ringing) - Hi Doug. - Hi Linda.

- I have a question for you.

How do bees make honey?

- That is a great question.

The fact that bees make honey is something most of us hear about, but it's not something most of us have actually seen for ourselves.

So for a lot of people, including adults I talk to, the whole thing is kinda fuzzy, maybe a little confusing even.

Something about flowers, and then they come back to a hive, and, well, something happens.

It almost seems like a secret recipe.

What is it that bees are doing in that hive?

Figuring this out isn't easy.

It's not like bees can tell us.

And bees are really kind of secretive.

They live in a hive.

We can't just pop our heads in there and check it out.

Plus, they've got those stingers.

They really wouldn't be happy about that if we did.

But there is a way to get inside a beehive and see what's going on.

Can you guess?

How could we find out what's going on inside a bee hive?

Now would be a good time to pause the video and discuss.

Okay, you ready?

Well, one possibility might be to wear a bee suit where you can't get stung, and then use tiny lenses and cameras to look inside the hive.

And that is one thing we can do.

In fact, even easier than that, many bees are willing to live in hives constructed by people.

So if you make clear sides, you can actually watch what they're doing.

By creating these see-through hives, scientists have been able to carefully observe what bees do, and have unlocked the secret of how bees make all that sweet, delicious honey.

If you watch a hive, you'll see bees coming and going.

You might know that bees are very busy, flying around from flower to flower, then coming back to the hive.

But what are they doing?

Watch as a bee lands on a flower.

You'll see it has a little tongue, right there, you see that?

Here's another video where you can really see the tongue, this one on a bumblebee.

Inside of every flower is a tiny pool of sugar water that's made by the plant.

This is what's called nectar.

It's such a tiny amount to us, it's hard to even notice.

But on flowers like this one, called honeysuckle, you can actually taste it.

It's nothing like honey at this point.

It's clear, it's very runny, and only just a tiny bit sweet.

But it turns out that bees aren't slurping it because they're thirsty.

When they do this, the nectar goes into a special honey stomach for storage.

Once a bee gets back to the hive, things start to get a little weird.

They spit it out again, and pass it to other bees, who spit it out, and in turn pass it to other bees, and they do this a few times.

This part might seem really gross, and scientists were confused by it at first.

But by studying the bodies of bees, scientists were able to figure out that inside the honey stomach, bees have a special liquid called an enzyme that as it mixes with the nectar, makes it thicker and stickier, more and more like honey.

So by passing it back and forth like that, bees are adding more and more enzyme to the nectar.

This is what turns nectar into honey.

Once they've done this enough times, they store the liquid honey into little containers they make out of wax.

This is called the honeycomb.

Why are bees doing all this?

It's not for us.

They make all of this honey to feed their babies.

For that reason, it might seem mean of us to take honey away from them.

But almost all of the honey that gets sold in stores doesn't come from wild bees.

Instead, people raise bees on farms, just like other farm animals.

The bees on farms make much more honey than their babies need.

So farmers collect that extra honey and sell it to people.

So in summary, bees make honey by collecting a sugary water, called nectar, from flowers, and then allowing that nectar to mix with a special substance inside one of their stomachs.

That's all for this week's question.

Thanks, Linda, for asking it.

Now, for the next episode, I reached into my question jar and picked out three questions submitted to me that I'm thinking about answering.

When this video's done playing, you'll get to vote on one.

You can choose from, how do you know if a mushroom is poisonous or not?

What is chlorine?

Or, who invented fans?

So submit your vote when the video's over.

I wanna hear from all of you watching.

There are mysteries all around us.

Stay curious, and see you next week.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
