Living in the wild can be hard．Finding food and staying safe aren't easy．Each day, animals try to survive in their habitats．Not all animals get by on their own. Some animals form a close partnership with other kinds of animals．These pairings are called symbiotic(共生的)relationships．
In a symbiotic relationship, the animals depend on each other．One animal helps the other meet its needs．Sounds good, right? Not always．Some animals are not very kind to their partners．In some cases, one animal meets its needs but hurts its partner．Take ticks(扁虱), for example．These insects suck blood to live．To get blood, they attach themselves to other kinds of animals．Ticks can pass germs（细菌）that cause disease instead of helping their hosts．
In other relationships, animals don't treat their partners so poorly．Both animals benefit from living with the other animal．
Small animals called cleaner shrimps(清洁虾）have found a way of helping fish．As their name suggests, the shrimps clean the fish．They hang out at what scientists call a cleaning station．A fish stops by．Then a shrimp climbs onto the fish and even steps into the fish's mouth．The shrimp uses its tiny claws to pick stuff off the fish's body．That can include dead skin and tiny pieces of food that can hurt the fish．The fish gets a nice cleaning．The shrimp enjoys a tasty meal of fish trash．
Small birds called plovers（灰斑）are also in the cleaning business．They have big customers-crocodiles.Crocodiles have long noses filled with sharp teeth. Cleaning them is funny. When a crocodile opens its mouth, the plover hops right in．It lets the plover eat small, harmful animals attached to the crocodile's teeth．The plover gets an easy meal while the crocodile gets clean teeth．

On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.
On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it!
Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected（选举）vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.
It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.
Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.

As the saying goes, “Chance favored the prepared mind.” I learned this from one of my experience.
I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me but pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another tryout arrived, I was full prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team.
From this, I am firmly convincing that we are able to seize a chance as long as I get well prepared.
