Do you like keeping pets? According to the surveyfish is one of the most popular choices in the pet world.
Why do people keep fish?
People keep dogs and cats because they enjoy their friendship. Fish cannot be friendly but they have beautiful shapes and colors. They are a pleasure to watch as they swim in their tanks.
What do they need?
First of all,the fish need a suitable(合适的) tankand you must fill the tank with suitable water. It is also good for them to have a few water plants in the tank to keep the water clean. A few snails in the tank are a good idea, too. They will keep it clean.
What about feeding them?
There are many kinds of fish food that you can get in pet shops. Most are suitable for all kinds of fish. You should feed your fish once a day only. It is important not to give them too much food. Just give them as much as they can eat in about 15 minutes. This will keep them healthy.

They may go to bed early, but a lot of them wakeup(醒来)in the middle of the night. They wake up not because of using the bathroom. They wake up because they are afraid of missing out(错过)!The article says schoolchildren wake up during the night tolook at their mobile phones. They are afraid that they maymiss something important on the mobile phone. They wake up at all times the night and go online.
I'd like to ask you to turn off your mobile phones at night. And you won't miss anything important.

Lots of people have sleep problems. They can't fall asleep quickly, and always wake up many times at night. There is some useful advice.

Go to bed early every night. Don't breakthis habit even when you want to watch soccer games on weekends. If you always stay up late, some time later,you will find it's hard to fall asleep.
32
Don't play computer games, watch TV or play with your mobile phone over half an hour before going to sleep. That can make you excited and hard to sleep, so just read a book or listen to light music. It can make you relaxed,and then go to sleep easily.
33
A good bedroom helps you sleep well. Make sure you turn off all the lightand keepthe right temperature(温度)in your bedroom before going to sleep.

The best time for dinner is around 6 p. m. That can make sure there isa4-hour interval(间隔)between dinner and bedtime. And you'd better not eat too much for dinner. Just follow these rules.
That can make you healthy and sleep well.
