【小题2】 Make a proper (合理的) feeding timetable and follow it to make sure your pet eats healthily. You can also look after your pet well by making sure you clean up after your pet.

Teeth are important. Strong, healthy teeth help you chew foods that help you grow. They help you speak clearly. And yes, they help you look best. Here are some tips for you to take care of your teeth:

Brush your teeth the right way.

Brush your teeth at least twice a day after breakfast and before bedtime. If you can, brush after lunch, too. Brush all of your teeth, not just the front ones. Spend time brushing teeth along the sides and back of your mouth. Spend at least three minutes each time you brush. Play a song you like to help pass the time. Get a new toothbrush every three months. When you buy a toothbrush, be sure it has soft bristles（鬃毛）.

Learn how to floss（用牙线剔牙）your teeth.

Flossing is a very important way to keep your teeth healthy. Food may hide between two teeth. Flossing can help get rid of it. You’ll need to floss your teeth at least once a day.

Have good eating habits.

You need to be careful about what you eat and drink. Eating too much sugar is a main reason of causing tooth decay（蛀牙）. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables and drink water instead of soda（苏打）.

In some parents’ eyes, school grades are the most important for their kids. 【小题1】 For example, how to be a happy person, what to do to keep healthy, and how to get along well with others. That is to say, school is not just enough if you want to have a great life.

【小题2】 Studies show that people who failed at school may not end up failing in life. You may have already known that some famous people, like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs, didn’t do very well at school or even failed to finish school. 【小题3】 They grasped every chance to learn and finally made it to the top.

It’s believed that life is really a long lesson, so you can’t tell a person’s success by just one part of it. 【小题4】 Remember whether you are good or bad at school, don’t take your school results too seriously as long as you have put your heart into it. Maybe you have already finished school, keep learning because what you have learned at school will never be enough to live a satisfying life. Keep learning to make the most of your talents.

【小题5】 As long as we work hard, we will be pleased with what we have got and happiness is all in our heart.
