Does my goldfish know who Ian?
I think this is a great question.I do spend my days(1) (study)how fish go about their lives.First of all,fish are much smarter than people think.People often talk of goldfish having three﹣second memories,but in fact they can learn all kinds of things,and remember them(2) quite a long time.
This shouldn't surprise us too much.Just like other animals,they can find enough to eat.And(3) (know) when it is sale to be out in the open.Being able to learn and remember things helps(4) (they) do this.
Many kinds of fish can tell one from another,according to their group,their relatives
(5) even their own eggs.But fish live in(6) very different world from us,For many kinds of fish,although seeing is important,(7) (sense) such as smell and touch are even more important.
So,does your fish know who you are?I believe your fish will(8) (sure) know when it is feeding time,My own fish become very(9) (excite)when my hand appears near their tank,even before I drop the food in.I'm not sure that your fish will be able to remember what your face(10) (look) like,but I wouldn't be too surprised if it could remember you in other ways,perhaps by the sound of your footsteps as you walk towards the tank.
The problem some people have with homework is not that they find it too hard,or that it takes too long,but that they (1)f what they have to do and for when.This may be because they don't write down exactly what (2)n to be done,or don't make a note of when it has to be handed in.
If you have a planner for school,make good (3)u of it to record what you need to do.If not,use a diary or notebook to make notes of what has to be handed in and(4)w .
You could set up an 'in﹣tray' system,so you can see what is (5)w to be done.This is a tray or shallow box where you put your homework each night until you are (6)r to do it. .
Although no one exactly looks forward to doing homework,you will get it done more efficiently(高效地) if you are well (7)o and have time and space to concentrate(专注) on it.
For example,if your homework involves (需要) going online and you don't have your(8)o computer,make sure you 'book' some time on the family computer,or can use one in your school library.
If you have space,set up a homework 'office' (9)a at home with a table or desk and a comfortable chair.It should have good light,a place for your books,and your homework 'tool kit' .
It helps to get into a habit of doing homework early in the evening,and not (10)1 it until the last minute at weekends.After you've done it,reward yourself with some fun‘down﹣time' activities,such as some television or social networking time.
