Read the text.Match the sentences A-F with the gaps 1-5 in the text.There is one extra sentence you do not need. A buzz about town I'm in an expensive hotel in the centre of Paris.1 The hotel owner,Jean Leforestier, tells me that the honey is from the hotel's own bees.I imagine that the hotel has a farm somewhere in the countryside, but Jean is smiling. 'Would you like to see the bees?' he asks. 'They're upstairs.' I'm surprised, but I follow Jean up the stairs.On the roof of the hotel, far above the busy streets of Paris, there is a roof garden.2 I can see them flying around. They live in six small hives made of wood, and they make honey for the hotel's guests. 3 Some people have gardens, but you don't need much room for a small hive. Like Jean at the hotel,people are building them on rofftops or on balconies. In the city of Paris there are over 400 hives. It's surprising, but research shows that bees in the city are healthier and produce more honey than their country cousins. Research suggests that the use of chemicals on farms and the size of modern farms are not good for bees. The farmers plant huge fields with just one type of crop.4 When the farmers cut their crops to sell them, the bees have almost no food left. In the city, bees visit our parks, gardens, balconies and flower beds.5 They can produce honey for longer each year. Next time you're in the park,look out for bees buzzing among the flowers. There might be an urban bee keeper in your town too! A In fact, more and more people in big cities are keeping bees. B Alice Jennings keeps bees at her farm in Devon. C It's breakfast time and I'm putting some honey on my bread. D This means that bees have only one type of food. E Urban bees can have up to 250 different types of food. F This is where the hotel keeps its bees.
