Sleep and dreams

Scientists know that the brain is very active when a person is sleeping. There are five stages，or parts，of sleep. Stage 1 statts a仕er you fall asleep. If there is a noise or a bright light，you wake up very easily. In Stage 2，your brain waves are velγslow. In Stage 3 and Stage 4，you are in deep sleep. I t's very diffi Cll lt to wake up then. Your body rests and grows during these stages. Stage 5 is when you dream. Your eyes move a lot，and your brain waves are fast. This stage of sleep is very important for your memory. A仕er Stage 5，you wake up a little，and then Stage 1 starts again. We go through the白ve stages of sleep four or five times every night，so we have many dreams in one night.

How much sleep do you need? The answer depends on your age. Babies should sleep fi仕een to sixteen hours evelγ day. Children and teenagers need nine or ten hours of sleep，but older people only need six to eight hours. If you sleep for only four hours one night，you may just feel tired the next day. But many nights of bad sleep can be bad for your health. People who don't get enough sleep get sick more 0仕en. And sleep is very important for learning. I t's one reason why students should go to bed early!

Track 2-6-0L-6

B.Li sten again. Then answer questions.

Track 2-6-0L-7

A. You will listen to a passage about the meaning of dreams. Then complete each sentence by circling the correct answe r. The meaning of dreams

For centuries，people have asked: Why do we dream? What do our dreams mean? Today，science doesn't have definite answers to these questions，but we do know some things about dreams. First，we all dream，。仕en four to five times a night. Second，we don't usually remember most of our dreams. And finally，when we dream，our brains are very active.

Thousands of years ago，people began to study dreams. In many cultures，people believe d. dreams were messages from spirits or gods. Later，the ancient Greeks and Romans had a new idea: Dreams come from a person's mind. Doctors studied dreams to help sick or worried people.

In the past，some cultures used dreams to predict the future. They thought dreams could help a person choose a husband or wife，guess a baby's birthday，or start a business. In some places，this practice is st ilI common.

Today，scientists think dreams are about our thoughts and feelings. Our minds send us messages about our lives. Unfortunately，many messages are 0仕en strange or confusing. People wake up and think: What did that dream mean?

So，how can you understand the messages in your dreams? Think about the events in the dream. What do they say about your life? For example，one common dream is about flying. Sometimes this dream means you feel free or want freedom. Other times it means you feel afraid. What do your dreams tell you about your life?
