What Is a Dream?
For centuries, people have wondered about the strange things that they dream about. Some psychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning. Others，however， think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact, many experts believe that dreams can tell us about a person’s mind and emotions.
Before modern times, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. (46)____
The Austrian psychologist, Sigmund Freud1，was probably the first person to study dreams scientifically. In his famous book, The interpretation of Dreams (1900), Freud wrote that dreams are an expression of a person’s wishes. He believed that dreams allow people to express the feelings, thoughts, and fears that they are afraid to express in real life.
The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung2 was once a student of Freud’s. Jung，however，had a different idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was to communicate a message to the dreamer. (47)___For example, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high an opinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroes may learn that they think too little of themselves.
Modern-day psychologists continue to develop theories about dreams. For example, psychologist William Domhoff from the University of California, Santa Cruz，believes that dreams are tightly linked to a person’s daily life, thoughts, and behavior. (48)____.
Domhoff believes that there is a connection between dreams and age. His research shows that children do not dream as much as adults. According to Domhoff, dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop.
He has also found a link between dreams and gender. His studies show that the dreams of men and women are different. (49)___This is not true of women’s dreams.3 Domhoff found this gender difference in the dreams of people from 11 cultures around the world, including both modern and traditional ones.
Can dreams help us understand ourselves? Psychologists continue to try to answer this question in different ways. (50)____The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that some terrible event will actually take place. It’s important to remember that the world of dreams is not the real world.
文章(41~45)
A. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.
B. However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn’t panic.
C. A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.
D. He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.
E. Men and women are dreamed about different things.
F. For example, the people in men’s dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.

(作文)1.What is your biggest dream?

3.What are your plans to achieve your dream?
参考答案：
The Biggest Dream of My Life
I know many people whose biggest dreams are things such as what career they want to get into, how much money they can earn.My dream is nothing like that.My biggest dream has always been and will always be to travel around the world.I have one life here on Earth, so I don’t want to die regretting that I didn’t see it all.
Actually I have had this dream ever since I was in primary school.In one geography class, when the teacher presented us the globe and national fl ags of various nations, I thought I found the dream in the depth of my heart.And the moment I came to college, I had always envisioned myself of becoming a nomad.I would roam around the world.No permanent address.Any place can be my home and I am home within myself.
Meanwhile, I am aware that it’s really a costly dream.The first step I need to take is to begin to save money to support it.And I think it’s a good idea to start exploration from my hometown and the city where my university is located.Just as a saying goes: a big dream begins with the first step.

The Meaning of Dreams
1 Dreams play an important role in our lives.If they can be correctly interpreted,we can come to
understand ourselves better. Here,we look at four common dreams and what they potentially symbolize.
2 I can see their laughing faces…laughing at me. But they aren't as smart. If they were,they'd be
up here flying with me!This dream has both positive and negative connotations（涵义）.On the positive
side,the dream may express a strong desire to travel and get away from everyday routine.It can also be
interpreted as a powerful desire to achieve.On the other hand,this dream can mean the person has a problem
or is afraid of something and they wish to escape. The dream could represent an inferiority complex（自卑情
结）,which the dreamer attempts to escape from by putting themselves up above others.
3 I'm moving fast now,but it's still behind me. Doesn't matter how fast I go,I still can't escape.
Although this is a traditional symbol of health and vitality（生命力）like the first one,it can also suggest the
dreamer is trying to escape from danger. Usually,fear is the dominant emotion.By running hard,the dreamer
can possibly escape the threat. However,they can also stumble（瞒珊）or worse still stop moving altogether.
This makes the fear even more terrifying（恐怖的）.One possible interpretation suggests that the person is
under pressure in their everyday life.
4 I'm sweating and my heart is beating. I'm trapped in my own bed. In this dream,the person is
often standing on a high,exposed place such as on the top of a tower,or on the edge of a cliff. The
overwhelming（强烈的）feeling changes from anxiety to a loss of control. There is nothing to stop the person,
and the feeling as they go over the edge can be horrifyingly（恐怖地）real. Fortunately,just before hittingthe
ground,the dreamer awakens with a sense of enormous relief. This dream suggests that the dreamer is afraid
of losing control and has a fear of failure or even death.
5 The wind is pushing me and I slip. There's nothing I can do…nothing I can hold on to. This
symbol is associated with fear:suddenly the dreamer loses all power of movement. They try hard to move their
arms and legs,but they simply cannot.Frozen in a terrifying situation with no escape,they become more and
more terrified as the seconds go by.Another frequent context for this dream is failing to do something in
public,often something which you are normally very good at,such as your job.Not only is this extremely
embarrassing,but it also shows a deep-seated phobia（恐惧）of losing a job and a livelihood.Paragraph 3__________
A: Dream of Running Hard
B: Dream of Falling Down
C:Dream of being Pushed Away
D:Dream of Flying Into the Air
E:Dream of Climbing Trees.
F:Dream of Diving Into the Water答案：A解析：由第二段的第二句“flying with me”可知这一段主要讲的是在空中飞的梦。
由第三段第一句“moving fast”和第五句“By running hard”可知这一段主要讲的是一个努力奔跑的梦。
由第四段第三句可知：“做梦的人站在塔顶或站在悬崖边，这意味着这一段主要讲的是一个关于跌落的梦”。
由第五段第一句“The wind is pushing me...”可知这一段讲的是一个关于被推倒的梦。
由文章第二段最后一句可知：此梦表现了这类人有自卑情绪，这些人往往在梦中会把自己凌驾于他人之上以逃避现实。
由文章第三段前两句可知，这类梦者梦见别人追他们，由最后一句可知：这类人在日常生活中承受着压力。
由文章第四段第三句可知，这类梦者梦见自己站在悬崖边上，由该段倒数第一句“isafraid of losing control...”可知选F。
由文章第五段倒数第一、二句中的“this dream is failing to do something in public.., but it also shows a deep-seated phobia of losing a job...”可知选F。第4部分：阅读理解第一篇 文章主要讲述了如何处理脚课扭伤的问题。 -

When We Are Asleep
Everyone dreams,but some people never recall their dreams,or do so very rarely.
Other people always wake up with vivid recollections（记忆）of their dreams, though they
forget them very quickly.In an average night of eight hours' sleep,an average adult will
dream for around one hundred minutes,probably having three to five dreams,each lasting
from ten to thirty minutes.
Scientists can detect when someone is having a dream by using an instrument which
measures the electrical waves in the brain.During dreaming,these waves move more
quickly.Breathing and pulse rate also increase,and there are rapid eye movements under
the lids，just as though the dreamer were really looking at moving objects.These signs of
dreaming have been detected in all mammals（哺乳动物）studied, including dogs,
monkeys, cats, and elephants, and also some birds and reptiles（爬行动物）.This period
of sleep is called the"D"state.Babies experience the"D"state for around 50%of their
sleep;the period reduces to around 25%by the age of 10.
Dreams take the form of stories,but they may be strange and with incidents not
connected,which make little sense.Dreams are seldom without people in them and they
are usually about people we know.One estimate says that two-thirds of the"cast"of our
dream dramas are friends and relations.Vision seems an essential part of dreams,except
for people blind from birth.Sound and touch are senses also often aroused,but smell and
taste are not frequently involved.In"normal"dreams,the dreamer may be taking part,or
be only an observer. But he or she cannot control what happens in the dream.
However,the dreamer does have control over one type of dream.This type of dream is
called a "lucid"（清醒的）dream. Not everyone is a lucid dreamer. Some people are
occasional lucid dreamers.Others can dream lucidly more or less all the time.In a lucid
dream,the dreamer knows that he is dreaming.In a lucid dream we can use Morse code to communicate with others.

第9题：
资料：Dream is a story that a person watches or even takes part in during sleep. Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer's life. They seem real while they are takingplace. Some dreams are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening. Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams.
Dreams involve little logical thought. In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, but they may also hear, smell, touch, and taste in their dreams. Most dreams occur in color. But persons who have been blind since birth do not see at all in dreams.
Dreams are a product of the sleeper's mind. They include events and feelings that he has experienced. Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and strong wishes of the dreamer. Many minor incidents of the hours before sleep appear in dreams. Deep wishes or fears-especially those held since childhood-often appear in dream. and many dreams fulfil such wishes. Events in the sleeper's surrounding-a loud noise, for example, may become part of a dream, but they do not cause dreams.
Some dreams involve deep feeling that a person may realize he has. Psychiatrists often use material from a patient’s dreams to help the person understand himself better.
Dreaming may help maintain good learning ability, memory, and emotional adjustment. People who get plenty of sleep-but are awakened each time they begin to dream-become anxious and restless.

单选题According to the author, what would parents eventually do with a sleepless, troublesome newborn baby?AThey might turn themselves into pediatricians themselves after some years.
BThey would treasure the experience because it would become a distant dream.
CThey would be overcome with bitter envy for some regularly sleeping children.
DThey would probably become some abusive parents because of sleep insufficiency.
正确答案： B解析：
推理判断题。从文章最后一句“even the best parents might slip into child abuse when sleep is not sufficient.”可知，即使是最好的父母，在睡眠不足的情况下也会发脾气，虐待孩子，因此D为正确答案。作者对医生并不满意，因为医生没有真正关心带给患者家庭的影响，文章也没有提到几年后父母会成为儿科医生，所以A错误；文章提到这对父母自从孩子12个月时没被打扰睡过一夜后，就每夜不得安宁了，不可能“珍惜”，所以B不正确；C不是解决办法，只是心态。所以选D。 -
