Honeybees are a fascinating species. They live
in hives within a very structured social order,
Each hive contains one queen, a few hundred
drones, or male bees, and the worker bees, all
female. Wild (feral) hives will contain up to
20,000 bees, while managed bees can live in
colonies of up to 80,000 bees. The main
purpose of drone bees is to mate with the
queen, and her sole purpose is to produce
eggs. The queen lives two to five years,
whereas the drones live only about 8 weeks. All
housekeeping tasks in the hive are performed
by the female worker bees, who make up the
majority of the hive. Most worker bees live
six weeks, except for those born in the
late fall. They will live until the following spring
bees have a barbed stinger that trips
of their abdomen upon use, which kills them, so
it can be used only once. The queen's stinger is
not barbed; therefore, she does not die when
she stings a rival.

the illustration   that would give a reader a clear understanding of the text is a picture of men constructing the frame of a building.the frame is made of iron bars. the text describes the job of blacksmiths'. these were very organised and they had different names: "the driver" and "the heater". the text describes the way in which these men worked ; they worked iron pieces as if they were playing a sport. in fact, the text wants to show the men's skills. the text also puts some emphasis on the use of '' rivets'' in construction. this kind of nails were not always used in the construction of manhattan.

some examples:

"and with an underhand toss he hurled the smoking rivet straight at the catcher, who caught it in mid-air in his catching can." men's skills

"when the driver was ready for a new " the emphasis on the rivet ( special nail used in construction).

" it against a beam to remove any cinders, and jammed it into the waiting hole. " the emphasis on the rivet.

in "people in peace, not profit and war" chrisholm uses inductive reasoning for her argument against defense spending by stating that the new administration, like most americans, wanted to invest in social objectives, so they must not want to prioritize defense spending. mr. nixon said "we can delay no longer in launching new approaches to the problem that beset them", but chrisholm points out that the programs were delayed anyways.
