2. The approach the author used in the intro was Definition some ex: Indeed, a colony of bees, with their neatness and love of order, their division of labor, their public-spiritedness, their thrift, their complex economies, and their inordinate love of gain, seems as far removed from a condition of rude nature as does a walled city or a cathedral town.

3. There is no creature with which man has surrounded himself that seems so much like a product of civilization, so much like the result of development on special lines and in special fields, as the honey-bee. Indeed, a colony of bees, with their neatness and love of order, their division of labor, their public-spiritedness, their thrift, their complex economies, and their inordinate love of gain.

4. I feel that the introduction paragraph was very descriptive and one the best I have read. It went into detail about some of the jobs that a honey-bee has. Some of their jobs consists of complex economies, and their inordinate love of gain, Another thing is that it gives nice detailes on comparisons such as the white mans foresight, craftiness, miserly habits. This to me shows that the author or someone that he knows has had may honey-bee encounters, therefore this introduction paragraph sounds good and it seems like he will be able to keep me interested throught the essay. It is like they have their own civilization.

5. The technique the author used was Prediction

6. In the conclusion the writer did a good job to sume up his thoughts. The statement wild honey is as near like tame as wild bees are like their brothers in the hive is very deep. To me I thought of it as we all have some of the same characteristics. We are all living beings and should respect all aspects of life. As a matter of fact we should respect everything in this world wether or not it is living or just an innate object. In my opinon this essay can learn us a lot about how when we work together and cooperate things will get done.
