their dreams. As soon as they wake up, they record what their dreams were about.
Scientists believe that we have different kinds of sleep. One kind is called R.E.M. R.E.W. stands for rapid
eye movement. During this kind of sleep our eyes move quickly, even though they are closed. Although we are
asleep, there is a lot of brain activities. We probably have dreams at this time.
Sometimes people talk in their sleep. In these dreams the dreamer is usually unhappy or worried about
something. The worst of the dreams are so frightening that we call them nightmares. In a nightmare we often
dream that we are being closed or that we are trapped in some way.
Scientists or others have written books about the meanings of dreams. The most famous of these scientists
was Sigmund Freud who wrote a hundred years ago. He suggested different meanings to certain kinds of
dreams. It is possible, however, that every dream has a special meaning only for the person who dreams it,
and that this dream about something in that person"s life.

teaching Alex to speak and understand wasn"t easy at first. He had to learn one word at a time. Irene and an
assistant (助手) would teach Alex by showing him what a word meant. Irene would hold up an object, saying
"What"s this?" Her assistant would give the word-"candy", for example-while Alex watched. Irene would praise
(表扬) her assistant, then ask Alex the name for the object. When he got it right, Irene would praise him and
give him the object to play with as a reward. It took Alex many weeks to learn his first word. After that, each
new word became easier and easier for him.
Why did Irene spend so much time getting a parrot to talk? Scientists like Irene are interested in discovering
how intelligent (聪明) animals are and how their brains work. But studying animal intelligence has been difficult,
partly because animals haven"t been able to communicate (交流) clearly with humans. Teaching Alex to speak
words that he understands has let Irene talk to him directly. She can ask him questions, and he can answer them
in English. In this way, Irene is finding out what kinds of things Alex"s brain can do. She has found that parrots
are much smarter than scientists used to think.
B. He uses words in English instead of bird calls to call other birds.
C. He can copy the pronunciations of more than 100 English words.

bad words maybe, like silly, dirty, greedy (贪婪)…But, are these true?
When we see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or behind dirty fences. But pigs also want to be clean
if they can. Pigs have no sweat glands( 汗腺), so they have to get cool in water when they feel hot.
If people are greedy, we say they "pig out". Yes, pigs love eating a lot. But they are useful to people.
People not only eat their meat, but also use other parts of pigs. Pig skin is used for glue and shoes. The hair
can be used to make brushes. Sometimes, pigs are even used to make medicine.
"He is as silly as a pig!" This expression is wrong. Pigs are very smart animals. Among all animals, they
are the third cleverest-monkeys, dolphins and pigs. Scientists think the training of pigs is easier than the
training of dogs and cats. Pigs have a very good sense of smell (嗅觉). They can find things nearby or
faraway. They can also help the police to sniff-out drugs (毒品) at an airport or at a train station.
