Can dogs and birds be friends? Most people think they can’t be friends and that dogs always have a 1 with birds, right?
You will be 2 when you see my dog and bird. They get on with each other. They 3 fight. They look like the brother and sister. 4 can they be so nice to each other? Maybe because I took them home when they were very 5 . They were both lonely when they moved into a new home, so they became friends. Of course, sometimes my dog is rude to the bird. Then I will be angry and 6 at him. Then he will know he is 7 and will be kind again.

Dragonflies fly around in the morning or evening of summer, but how much do you know about us?
Why dragonflies are in a hurry Most dragonflies live for only a few months as grown-ups, so we fly around looking for food. Some dragonflies in Australia can fly about 56 kilometres per hour, making us the fastest flying insects(昆虫).

Four cows lived in a forest near a meadow(草地). They were good friends and did everything together. They walked around together, ate grass together and stayed together day and night. Because they were always together, they were able to protect each other from tigers and lions that might want to kill them for food.

But one day, the four friends got into a big argument(争论). They couldn’t work it out and all decided to leave and live on their own. They each found a new meadow to live in. But a lion soon found them. He thought that this might be a good chance to kill the cows and enjoy a good meal. One by one, he hunted the cows and killed them.

The story gives us something to think about. What the cows did not understand is that there is strength(力量) in numbers. This is true even for humans. If we stay close to our friends and family members, they can give us the strength to get through hard times. And in return, we can help them when they are in need.

Many people like keeping fish at home, but do you know how to keep fish at home? Here is some advice(建议).
Fish need room(空间). Fish need oxygen(氧气). Fish get it from water in the fish tank(鱼缸). There must be plenty of water for all fish in the tank. So the size of the tank is important.
In the tank many people put small plants. They produce oxygen. Plants help in other ways too. Fish can nibble(一点点地咬) the plants. They can sleep and lay eggs in the plants.

Both the plants and fish need light. You can put them near a window. They will get light there. But a window may let cold air in. Don’t forget that the cold air can kill your fish. Too hot water can kill your fish too.
The fish need food and you should feed them every day. But you shouldn’t give fish anything that you like. That may kill your fish. And giving them too much food is bad. It will make the water dirty. However, the fish should get just enough food. They should finish the food in 10 minutes.
