People can “farm” on a piece of “land” and “grow ”, “sell” or even “steal” “vegetables”, “flowers” and “fruits” on the Net. They can earn some e-money and buy more “seeds”, “pets” and even “houses”. Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions. Harold: I dont quite understand why they are so crazy about the childish game. Maybe they are just not confident(自信) enough to face the real world. Allan: I enjoy putting some “bugs” in my friends gardens and weve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it. Laura: You know, people in the city want to enjoy the life in the countryside.

One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus Flytrap. The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly can not get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly. Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesnt have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Lets hope that some of the bigger plants dont get the same idea!58. The Venus flytrap grows in .

Pay more attention to your diet. First, eat food that is good for your eyes,such as fresh fruits and vegetables, fish, eggs, and milk. Besides, a regular amount of vitamins A and B2 should also be taken. A regular and sound sleep is a must. It relaxes the eye muscles（肌肉）and gives them the rest required. Sleep not only helps the body to repair its tired tissues (组织). Usually, you must sleep for at least seven to eight hours every day. Loss of sleep can give you dark circles under the eye. You must exercise your eyes every day. Blink (眨眼) your eyes at regular periods, which makes the eyeballs watery and gives them a good wash.We use our eyes in many unnoticeable and wrong ways. Fox example, if a small thing goes into our eye, we start rubbing it, which is wrong. Rubbing can do harm to your eyes. Dont read or write in poor or bright sunlight. Always use sunglasses as sunlight can cause eye tiredness. Light should not shine directly in your eyes. Too much reading, writing, watching television or working on the computer can also cause eye tiredness. Remember to always take care of Gods most beautiful gift to you.
