參考譯文

許多人把小魚當(dāng)寵物養(yǎng)。他們把魚養(yǎng)在魚缸里。魚缸是由透明玻璃制成的。人能透過玻璃看到魚缸的里面，也就可以欣賞魚了。

魚需要空間。它們不能太擁擠。魚呼吸時需要氧氣。魚從魚缸的水中獲得氧氣。養(yǎng)魚需要充足的水，所以魚缸的大小很重要。

許多人會把對魚有好處的小草放進(jìn)魚缸里。它們向水中釋放氧氣。植物在其他方面也有用處。魚可以咬這些植物，它們可以躲在植物中睡覺、產(chǎn)卵。

植物需要陽光。大多數(shù)魚也需要。魚缸可以放在窗戶旁。這樣，它就可以照到陽光了。窗戶會讓冷空氣進(jìn)來。魚缸里的水也會因此而變得很冷。因為冷水會凍死魚，熱水會燙死魚，所以溫度必須適當(dāng)。

魚得始終待在水里。有些魚跳得很高，它們會跳到魚缸外。所以魚缸應(yīng)該加蓋。這樣魚就跳不出來了。

魚需要食物，人們應(yīng)該每天喂食。喂得太多對它們不利。剩下的食物會沉到缸底，從而使水變渾。但魚也應(yīng)該得到適量的食物，這些食物應(yīng)該在10分鐘內(nèi)吃完，且沒有剩余。如果做到這一點，說明食物的量正好合適。
