It is easy to know if(是否) a person is sleeping. But how do you know if a fish is sleeping? 51 Fish do not lie down, either.
Although fish may not sleep like people, they do rest. One way to know if a fish is resting is to watch what it is doing. 52 Some fish move at the bottom(底部) of the water. Some move slowly near the top of the water.
You can know some fish are resting because they stay in one place. 53 For example, some sharks(鲨鱼) keep swimming so that they can breathe in the water. Although these sharks are always swimming, they may still be resting. 54 The organ(器官) allows them to keep their body moving while they are resting.
Another way to know if a fish is resting is to watch how it reacts to (对……作出反应) things. 55 If you have a pet fish at home, try giving your fish some food when it is resting. The fish will spend more time noticing the food than it does when staying awake (醒着).
Fish may not look like they are sleeping, but they do have their own ways of getting some rest.
A. They have a special organ in their body.
B. Fish cannot close their eyes like humans.
C. However, other fish never seem to stop moving.
D. Most fish will slow down when they are resting.
E. When a fish is resting, its reaction will be much slower.
