All students need to have good habits (好習慣)： When you have good study habits， you learn things quickly. You also remember them easily.

Do you like to study in the living room? This is not a good place because it is usually too noisy. The telephone bell rings there； the TV is there， and sometimes it is a good place for your pet dog or cats to play and rest. You need to study in a quiet place， like your bedroom. A quiet place will help you only think about one thing， and you will learn better.

Before you begin to study， do not forget to clean your desk. A good desk light is important， too. You’ll feel tired easily if there is not enough light (光線). So you should have a clean and bright lamp. To tell you the truth， the most important is that you should put your heart into your study.

Lizards (蜥蜴) are unusual，but they can make good pets because most of them are small and easy to care for. They do not make loud noises，and they do not need to go for walks or take baths.

Of course， some lizards make better pets than others. One of the most popular lizards in pet store is the bearded dragon. Bearded dragons are active during the day and do not mind people holding them. Geckos are another popular pet lizard. They are a little more difficult to care for. Geckos are active at night and need a warm place to live．Like bearded dragons，they can be held by their owners．Both of these lizards can live ten years or more when they are well cared for．

Two lizards that are bad choices for pets are iguanas and chameleons. Iguanas can grow to be almost two meters(nearly six feet)，so they need a big space to live in．They can also bite or scratch (抓傷) their owners．Chameleons do not hurt their owners，but they are quite difficu1t to care for. While iguanas can live up to twenty years，chameleons do not live very long. Most do not live more than five years．
