    Arctic fox (北极狐) is a kind of small fox that lives in the Arctic. It grows about 50 centimeters (厘米) long, not including its tail, 30 centimeters tall and weighs from 3 to 7 kilos.

    The Arctic foxes are white or blue in color. The white ones are white in winter, but gray-brown in summer. The blue ones are blue-gray all year round. The Arctic foxes have long, thick hair that is called fur (毛皮). And the long fur covers their whole bodies, including both their cat eyes and rabbit feet, to keep them warm in the low temperature in the Arctic.

    The Arctic foxes feed mainly on birds, birds' eggs and other small animals. Teamwork is the way they look for food, and they don't like to do that alone.

    Baby Arctic foxes are very lovely. They don't open their eyes until a week after their birth. For the first half of the year, their parents offer them food. They begin to look for food on their own when they are about six months old. The next year they can live alone.

    Today the number of the Arctic foxes is becoming smaller and smaller, because people kill them for their fur to make beautiful coats for money. Something must be done to protect the Arctic foxes.

    Parents are the most important people in your life. They have looked after you since you were born, so you should always love them. You should get on well with them. But some children don't know how to do this. Here are some ways to help you.

    Spend more time with your parents. Don't spend too much time playing computer games or watching TV. Instead you can ask your parents to play with you. You can talk or go outside with them if they have time.

    Be kind to your parents. You can make them happy with a smile when you come home. You can send your mother a card on Mothers' Day or tell your father a joke on his birthday. You can also clean your room by yourself.

    Work hard. If you do your best in your studies, your parents will be proud (自豪的) of you.
