    Because of Disney's film Finding Nemo, the clownfish (小丑鱼) are facing the danger of dying out. The film received positive reviews and won the Acaden Award for Best Animated Feature. It was a success as it earned over $864 million worldwide.

    Finding Nemo is about a clownfish who tried to save his son who has been caught by a man from becoming a pet. One thing we can learn from the film is that wild animals really have to remain in their habitats(栖息地). However, the message seems not to be stuck in the minds of children. The clownfish are facing the danger of dying out several years after the animated film was on, because the film itself made them the must — have pets for kids all over the world!

    It is said that just half of needs can be met by clownfish bred in captivity(人工饲养)，which means the rest have to be taken from the sea. Now the average(平均的) size of clownfish schools (鱼群) in Australia, has decreased from twenty-five members to just six, making it harder for them to breed. Dr Billy Sinclair who has spent five years studying the clownfish was the first to raise the alarm, “The film did much to educate children about sea life but the fish were then sold as children's pets. My message to kids who loved the film is simple: Tell your parents to leave Nemo in the sea where it belongs.”

    Everyone wants to find happiness. But sometimes looking for happiness can be as hard as looking for lost treasure. Just when you think you nearly reach it, something unexpected happens. This may trouble you a lot. Here are some tips for helping you find happiness.

    Don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you depend on one thing or one person to make you happy, it may be impossible. You need to have larger circle of friends.

    Follow your heart. When we go against our own thoughts, we usually feel sad. Follow your strong feeling and let it guide you to people and things that will improve your life. Day by day, you will be happier than before.

    Organize your ideas. Many people push away happiness when they think too much. Don't keep everything in head. Try making a list of lot of things that don't seem too big to manage on your own. You may find the list isn't as long as you thought. You can do most of the things by yourself.

    Look at your life as a whole. Most of the things that stop us from feeling happy are just some little things. Remember life is always going on and whatever the little thing is, it will finally end.

    Happiness can be hard to feel at times, so don't think there is something wrong with you if you don't feel it. The ways above will help you to feel more of it.
