Switzerland (瑞士) is a very beautiful place. And the Swiss government has come up with some strange rules.
Is it exciting to have a goldfish as a pet It is easy to take care of and makes your life interesting. But hold on, you may make a big mistake if you live in Switzerland. It is not allowed to keep only one goldfish, according to the country's law (法律). Why Fish are social animals. In the sea they swim in groups. The Swiss government believes it is very bad to make them live alone. So keeping only one goldfish has not been allowed since 2008. And this rule is not just used for goldfish. Other social animals, like guinea pigs (豚鼠) and budgerigars (虎皮鹦鹉), are also the same.
Dog lovers have to take courses before they can own one—and then have practical training. If you just want a cat, you must let it outside so it can see other cats. If it's going to be kept indoors, then you've got to get two.
Are you planning to buy a parrot and keep it alone at home for fun Forget about it in Switzerland. It'll be considered abuse (虐待) unless you can get it a friend to talk to.
One thing's for sure, these rules will certainly make most British feel sorry about their pet-owning habits.

I'm not always a fan of museums. I
can't pay attention to what I am watching the subject matter is very
interesting. And art museums They have never my "thing". But
that's not to say that I go to museums. I do have my favorite museums
around the world. For , I like NewSeum in Washington, D. C. and Te Papa in Wellington, New
Zealand. And sometimes there are several museums that are so or special
that I can't let myself skip(略过)them. Here is one of
the most special museums I have so far. It is the National Leprechaun(小矮妖)Museum in Dublin, Ireland.
The museum is not a traditional
one. Visiting the museum is more like a theater experience. The 45 minute tour
takes you through the museum room room and your tour guide tells funny
stories about leprechauns. Some rooms are of huge furniture(家具). In these rooms,
you just look like a very little man. The guide also you to take photos
as you make your way through the rooms. So I took a lot of interesting pictures
that day.
I really hope to visit the museum
again!
