10 Second Trivia. Which of these insects would you find in the family vespidae? Hornet, honey bee, firefly or mantis. Vespidae includes insects like yellow jackets and hornets.

10秒快速問(wèn)答。下列哪些昆蟲(chóng)屬于胡蜂科?大黃蜂，蜜蜂，螢火蟲(chóng)或螳螂。Vespidae包括像黃夾克和黃蜂這樣的昆蟲(chóng)。

Next up Asian Giant Murder Hornets, sounds like an old school horror movie but these insects are real and for the first time they've been spotted in the United States. Asian giants are the world's largest hornets. They can kill a person with multiple stings, that's why they're known as "murder hornets".

接下來(lái)是亞洲殺手大黃蜂，名字聽(tīng)起來(lái)像老學(xué)院派恐怖電影，但這些昆蟲(chóng)是真實(shí)存在的，它們第一次在美國(guó)被發(fā)現(xiàn)。亞洲巨人是世界上最大的黃蜂。它們可以多次刺死一個(gè)人，這就是為什么它們被稱為“殺手黃蜂”。

But they're a bigger threat to bees as a few hornets can take out a beehive in a matter of hours. Beekeepers in Washington State say they've seen piles of dead bees. Scientists don't know how Asian hornets got to Washington. Sometimes they hitch a ride on international cargo. Sometimes humans intentionally bring them to other places. Officials in Washington say if you see a giant hornet, call the State Department of Agriculture and don't try to kill it yourself.

但它們對(duì)蜜蜂的威脅更大，幾只大黃蜂就能在幾小時(shí)內(nèi)摧毀一個(gè)蜂巢。華盛頓州的養(yǎng)蜂人說(shuō)，他們看到了成堆的死蜜蜂?？茖W(xué)家們不知道亞洲黃蜂是如何來(lái)到華盛頓的。有時(shí)它們會(huì)搭國(guó)際貨物的便車。有時(shí)人們會(huì)故意把它們帶到其他地方。華盛頓的官員說(shuō)，如果你看到大黃蜂，打電話給國(guó)務(wù)院的農(nóng)業(yè)部，不要試圖自己殺死它。

From the Canary Islands off the west coast of Africa to the Caribbean island nation of Barbados there are about 3.000 miles of Atlantic Ocean. In 2011. Sonya Baumstein decided she'd row it. She hasn't been as successful with every expedition but nothing can sink her passion.

從非洲西海岸的加那利群島到加勒比島國(guó)巴巴多斯，大約有3000英里的大西洋。2011年，桑婭?鮑姆斯坦(Sonya Baumstein)決定劃船。她并不是每次探險(xiǎn)都那么成功，但什么也不能挫傷她的熱情。
