VOA慢速英文第13課 Save the Bees!

Professor Bot

We are back with Anna and Caroline and the bees. Last time, Anna was afraid. (Anna: I'm not afraid of bees!) But Caroline is helping her to stay safe. Look at sentences that start with “If” to find more conditional sentences. Remember, Type 1 conditionals use the present tense and “will,” and Type 2 use the past tense and “would.” Now, let's find out what happens with Anna and the bees.

我們又和安娜、卡洛琳還有蜜蜂在一起了。上次安娜很害怕。（安娜：我不怕蜜蜂！）但卡洛琳在幫她保持安全。找以 If 開頭的句子，就能找到更多條件句。記住，第一種條件句用現在時和 will，第二種用過去時和 would。現在看看安娜和蜜蜂會怎樣。

Caroline

I have a feeling that your fear of bees will be gone soon. There are things beekeepers do to protect ourselves. For example, we wear protective clothing. This is a beekeeper’s veil, suit and gloves. There are other things we can do, too. If I use a smoker, the bees will stay calm.

我有預感，你對蜜蜂的害怕很快就會消失。養蜂人會做一些事來保護自己。比如我們穿防護服。這是養蜂面罩、套裝和手套。還有別的辦法。如果我用噴煙器，蜜蜂就會保持冷靜。
