translation.en: The ancient Greeks knew that there was a class of bees, the drones, that are larger than the workers, although they disapproved of the drones' laziness because they could see that the drones just hang around the hive until the mating flight -- they're the males. They hang around until the mating flight, but they don't participate in gathering nectar or pollen.
translation.zh: 古代希腊人知道蜜蜂里 有一纲类，雄峰，比工蜂要大。 虽然希腊人看不惯雄峰的懒散， 它们总是围着蜂窝转， 转到婚飞为止, 人家是雄峰嘛， 就在等婚飞， 从来不参与采集花蜜和花粉。
