Everybody dreams. But only some people remember their dreams. Our dreams often include all the senses-smells, sounds, sights, tastes and things we touch. We dream in colour. Sometimes we dream the same dream over
and over again. These repeated dreams are often unpleasant. They may even be nightmares-bad dreams that
frighten us.
Early in the twentieth century, two famous scientists developed their personal ideas about dreams.
Austrian psychiatrist (精神病专家) Sigmund Freud published (出版) a book called "The Interpretation of
Dreams" in 1900. Freud believed people often dream about things they want but can"t have. These dreams
often have something to do with sex and aggression (侵犯行为). Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung worked
closely with Freud for several years, but he believed dreams could help people grow and understand
themselves. He believed dreams provide solutions (解决办法) to problems we face when we are awake.
He didn"t believe dreams hide our feelings about sex or aggression. Today we know more about the science
of dreaming because researchers can take pictures of people"s brains while they are sleeping.
Other researchers are studying how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and very sad emotions. Robert Stick gold is a professor of psychiatry at Harvard University in Massachusetts. Doctor Stick gold says
that when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world. He does not agree with Sigmund Freud
that dreaming is the way we express our hidden feelings and desires.
Scientists believe it is important to keep researching dreams. Doctor Stick gold says it has been more than
one hundred years since Sigmund Freud published his important book about dreaming. Yet there is still no agreement on exactly how the brain works when we are dreaming or why we dream.

as usual? Or, would you become worried and uneasy?
"I was surprised at how I could get angry so easily with my parents before a big exam," said Junior 3
student Wang Yangqian from Hefei. "I couldn"t fall asleep even after I"d been in bed for two hours."
Not only exams but also other things, like a big game, can make you different from how you are usually.
You may act differently because you are stressed out. Stress is what you feel when you are worried or
uncomfortable about something. Usually your hands get wet and your heart beats faster. You feel stressed
because you might ask too much of yourself sometimes. Or, your parents, teachers or classmates put too
much pressure on you. This can make you worried. But being stressed is not always a big problem. Everybody,
even sports stars, can get a little worried before a big game.
Some kinds of stress are good. Good stress might show up when you"re called on in class or when you
have to give a report. This kind of stress can help you get things done well. You may do a better job in your
book report if the anxiety pushes you to do more work before you read it to the class.
Sometimes stress can turn into something bad if you keep having stressful feelings for a long time. This
kind of stress isn"t going to help you. It can make you sick. You may have trouble paying attention at school
and forget things easily.
So, remember to stay relaxed. It won"t be the end of the world, even if you don"t pass the exam.

| In the Caucasus Mountains, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many don"t stop at 100! In American only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100. But these old people aren"t alone. The people who live high in the Himalaya Mountains and the Andes Mountains, seem to share the secret of long life, too. First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived people. They begin their long days of physical work as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr. Rustam is 142 years of age. He has experienced several wars. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr. Rustam doesn"t want to stop his work as a farmer. "Why? What else would I do?" He asks. Oh, he has slowed down a bit. Now he might work for 6 hours in the field instead of 10. Another factor (因素) that may contribute (有助于) to the good health of these people is their isolation. Most of them are kept off the modern world. Inherited (遗传的) factors also help. Most of the longest-lived people had parents and grandparents who also reached very old ages. So good families genes (基因) may be one factor in living longer. Finally, although these three groups don"t eat exactly the same food, they eat little animal meat. Their diets are full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese and milk. They never eat more food than their bodies need. | |||
| 1. Which of the following contributes to the good health of all these long-lived people? | |||
| A. Fresh air in the mountains. B. Hard physical work. C. Good family genes. D. The same food. | |||
| 2. What does the underlined word "isolation" mean in Chinese? | |||
| A. 自我封闭 B. 与世隔绝 C. 独立 D. 淡薄 | |||
| 3. What would be the best title for the passage? | |||
| A. Good Health B. The Old People in the Mountains C. Long-lived People D. The Secret of Long Life | |||

| All our food comes from the soil (土壤). Some of us eat meat, but animals live on plants. If there are no plants, we will have no animals and meat. So the soil is necessary for us to live. The top of ground is usually covered with grass or other plants. Plants grow in soil, which has a dark color. This dark soil is humus. Dead leaves, dead plants and animals" waste make it, but this takes a long time. When the humus has been made, plants can grow well in it. All soil needs food. If we don"t give it any, the plants will be weak. Animals" waste is the best food for the soil, but chemical fertilizers (化肥) are also very useful. The same crop (庄稼) should not be grown in the same place every year. It is better to have a different crop. A change of crop and the use of a good fertilizer will keep the land in good condition (条件). When the soil is dry, the wind blows it away. Sometimes heavy rain carries the humus down to a river. People should grow more and more trees and grass to stop wind from carrying the humus away. It takes hundreds of years to make humus, and so we must save every bit of it. Without soil, where can we grow food? | |||
| 1. From the text, we know people live on _________. | |||
| A. animal B. plant C. meat D. soil | |||
| 2. The word "humus" means _________ in Chinese. | |||

| 3. We should save every bit of humus, because _________. | |||
| A. it takes a long time to make humus B. the more humus in the soil, the better plants grow C. the chemical fertilizers are expensive D. A and B | |||
| 4. The best title of this article should be _________. | |||
| A. Soil is necessary to people B. The same crop can"t be grown in the same place every year C. Soil"s food is chemical fertilizers D. Humus is hard to make |
