PLZ I`M TIMED adapted from The History of Insects
by Unknown

This is an extraordinary, curious, and remarkably industrious little insect, to which mankind are indebted for one of the most palatable and wholesome sweets which nature affords and which was one of the choice articles with which the promised land was said to abound.
In every hive of bees, there are three kinds: the queen, the drones, and the laborers. Of these last, there are by far the greatest number and as cold weather approaches, they drive from the hives and destroy the drones that have not labored in summer and will not let them eat in winter. If bees are examined through a glass hive, all appears at first like confusion; but, on a more careful inspection, every animal is found regularly employed. It is very delightful, when the maple and other trees are in bloom or the clover in the meadows, to be abroad and hear their busy hum.
Which sentence is an important point in the passage?

A.

Bees seem to be very confused at first, but are very organized.

B.

Nature affords humans wholesome, natural sweets.

C.

Bees are a remarkable, industrious little insect.

D.

It is very delightful to hear the bees hum.
