Unit 5Do you want to watch a game show?本单元教学内容以Do you want to watch a game show？为中心话题，围绕着“谈论喜好和制定计划”展开，学习和运用句式Do you want to watch...？和What questions and answers以及一些描述性形容词，表达对某些电视节目的喜好(评价)。

Section A是基本语言内容的收集和学习，要求学生掌握一些常见电视节目类型的英文名称，如talk show，sitcom，news，soap opera，game show，sports show，talent show等，结合do引导的一般疑问句和what引导的特殊疑问句，进行简单会话，表达个人对某种电视节目的喜好。

Section B在Section A的基础上，进一步拓展学生基础知识和语言综合运用能力。

Section B 1a在Section A 1a呈现的6种TV shows的基础上增加了comedy，action movie，scary movie等内容。

Section B的教学应侧重于引导学生拾记并运用一些描述性形容词，如wonderful，relaxing，meaningless，enjoyable，exciting，boring等，自由谈论电视节目并表达个人的喜好。

同时，Section B也安排了一些读、写的任务活动，教师在教学过程中可以整合本单元教学内容，引导学生尝试着写简单的影评。

本单元是实用且学生感兴趣的话题，本单元的学习对于提升学生具体语境下的语言综合运用能力大有助益，同时也可以丰富学生生活，陶冶情操，对学生德育教育也是益处良多。

Unit 5 DreamsPart One Viewing, Understanding and SpeakingVideo ScriptTopic: Interpreting DreamsSetting: At the river bankCharacters: John (young man), Mary (young woman)[John and Mary, a newly married couple, are on their honeymoon. While they are sitting at the river bank, John is reading Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams and Mary is having a nap.]Mary: (awakes from a sweet dream) Ah…Darling, everything is so wonderful! The sun, the air, the water… I feel as if I were in a dream.John: (still reading the book with not much response) A dream? Yes, a dream.Mary: Have a look at the beautiful scenery around you, Darling. Don’t you think it’s too good to be true?John: Mm, maybe.Mary: Eh, you aren’t listening to me. What are you reading now?John: (finishes the last page of the book and closes the book) It’s Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams. Honey, have you ever wondered what…what the meaning of your dreams? You might get some satisfactory explanations for your dreams from this book, because Freud explains various kinds of dreams in it.Mary: It must be a very interesting book! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have ignored me. It seems to me that I am not as attractive as Freud.John: Yes, it really is.Mary: Yes?! You mean I am not charming enough? I can hardly stand your rudeness.John: Of course not. I mean it’s really an interesting book. Freud says that everything in our dreams has something to do with our real life.Mary: Really? I often dream about gathering fruit in an orchard. What does fruit represent in my dreams?John: It predicts good fortune. You’ll be rich, Honey.Mary: But the fact is we still can’t afford to buy a house.John: I have to admit that’s absolutely true. I spent about all I had on our honeymoon.Mary: Well, there must be something wrong with your interpretation, Darling. I doubt whether dreams can predict the future.John: Before I can be more exact, you have to give me more details.Mary: What further information do you need?John: Well, Honey, could you tell me what the color of the fruit is in your dreams?Mary: Er… the fruit doesn’t seem to be ripe. In my dreams, I think it’s green.John: Mm…I’ve got it. If the color of the fruit is green, you can’t be rich immediately, because only ripe fruit is interpreted as good fortune at hand.Mary: Oh? Are you sure about that?John: Definitely. I’ve just looked it up in Freud’s book.Mary: Then we’ll just have to wait and see?John: That’s right, Honey. Do you have any other happy dreams?Mary: Yes. I had another one just now. It was so sweet that I smiled from ear to ear. Would you like to have another try, Mr. Freud?John: I t’s my pleasure, madam. What happened in this dream? I guarantee you I can give you another good explanation.Mary: When I was dozing, I dreamed that you gave me a beautiful diamond necklace as a memento of our wonderful honeymoon. What do you think that means?John: (understands her wife’s actual intention and tries to find a way out) Er…Er…I’m not sure.Er…maybe I’m… I’m not knowledgeable enough! But anyway I can turn to the book for help. Wait a minute!Mary: Take it easy, Darling! I’m sure you know how you can make it come true.John: Too bad!Mary: What’s wrong?John: (smiles cunningly at his wife) I’m afraid Freud didn’t tell me how to interpret a daydream, only dreams at night.Mary: Daydream?!John: Yes, it must be a daydream since you had it during the day.Exercise 1Directions: You’re going to watch a video in which a couple talk about dreams.

They’re quite different. In passive sleep, the body is at rest. The heart slows down. The body processes become very slow. We move very little, and the brain becomes very inactive. If a person continues to sleep, she or he enters a new stage, a more active stage. The body goes through several changes: the brain temperature rises, the amount of blood in the brain increases, the body becomes very, very still, and the brain goes from being very inactive to being active. And as the brain becomes more active, the eyes begin to move rapidly. Eye movement is a sign of another change—that of a person dreaming.Throughout the night, people alternate between passive and active sleep. The brain rests, then it becomes active, then dreaming occurs. This cycle is repeated several times throughout the night. During eight hours of sleep, people dream for a total of one and a half hours on the average.Doctors have studied the sleep cycle and have found that everyone dreams—in fact, everyone needs to dream in order to stay healthy. It appears we need both kinds of sleep. We need passive sleep in order to rest our bodies. We need active sleep in order to dream. And dreaming helps us to rest our minds.

Of course, it is true that a lot of animals sleep, but zoologists are not certain that primitive forms of animal life, like worms and snails, ever really sleep. On the other hand, animals such as bears sleep for 4 or 5 months every year.The amount of sleep a human being needs depends on age, the individual and possibly race. For example, doctors think that pre-school children need between 10 and 12 hours a night; school children between 9 and 11 hours; and adults between 7 and 9 hours. There are exceptional cases of old people who sleep only between 2 and 3 hours a day and continue to be active and healthy. The sleep requirements of different races also appear to be different. Japanese people, for example, sleep fewer hours than Europeans.It is not known for certain if mental activity (apart from dreaming) occurs when a person is asleep. However, it is certainly true that some people can wake up at a specific, pre-determined time. There are also stories about mathematicians who solve difficult problems during sleep, because their subconscious minds continue working on the problem.Some types of unpleasant dreams (or “nightmares”) are quite common; the dreamer is taking a test, but is not properly prepared; he is falling from a tree; or an animal or thing is chasing him.Some people say these last two occur because man’s ancestors lived in trees and were in constant danger from wild animals.

He is most famous for his strange, frightening stories about death and evil powers such as The Fall of the House of Usher. Another story, The Murders in the Rue Morgue (莫格街凶杀案), is one of the first detective stories. His most famous poem is The Raven (乌鸦).TapescriptA Dream within a Dreamby Edgar Allan PoeTake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow --You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yet if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?All that we see or seemIs but a dream within a dream.I stand amid the roarOf a surf-tormented shore,And I hold within my handGrains of the golden sand --How few! yet how they creepThrough my fingers to the deep,While I weep -- while I weep!O God! can I not graspThem with a tighter clasp?O God! can I not saveOne from the pitiless wave?Is all that we see or seemBut a dream within a dream.Exercise(Online)Directions:Listen to the poem “A Dream within a Dream” twice and fill in each blank with the word you hear.Key to the exercise:1) parting 2) wrong 3) dream 4) night 5) none 6) seem 7) shore 8) sand9) fingers 10) grasp 11) save 12) wavePractice Three DaydreamsWords You Need to Know:fantasize 幻想abnormal 不正常的inherit 遗传divert 转移alert 警觉的TapescriptAlmost all people daydream during a normal day. We tend to daydream the most during those quiet times when we are alone in our cars, sitting in waiting rooms, or preparing for bed. Daydreaming or fantasizing is not abnormal; it is a basic human characteristic. Most people have reported that they enjoy their daydreams. Some people have very probable and realistic daydreams while others have unrealistic fantasies such as inheriting a million dollars.Psychologists report that men daydream as much as women, but the subject of their daydreams or fantasies is different. Men daydream more about being heroes and good athletes while women tend to daydream about fashions and beauty. As people grow older, they tend to fantasize less, although it is still common in old age. Older people tend to daydream a lot about the past. Daydreaming or fantasizing enters into the games of children. Psychologists believe that it is very important for children to participate in fantasy play. It is a normal part of their development. It helps children develop and explore their imagination.Daydreaming has advantages and disadvantages. In some situations it can reduce a person’s fear or anxiety. It can also keep us entertained or awake under dull or boring conditions. Unfortunately, to engage in a daydream or fantasy, we must divert part of our attention from our environment. When it is important for us to remain alert and pay attention to what is going on around us, daydreaming can cause problems.

Many experts now believe our dreams are so closely related to our waking lives that we can use them to help us recognize our inner conflicts.According to some experts, men and women dream differently because of biological and social conditioning. In a study of 1000 dreams, half from each sex, experts found that men more often have action dreams. Usually these dreams are set outdoors or in unfamiliar surroundings. Women dream more of emotional struggles with loved ones, usually in indoor settings. As more women have care ers, their dreams might become more like men’s. Researchers have found that while housewives dream more about children, women in the workplace dream about bosses and colleagues. Small children who are easily scared dream of frightening animals and monsters that chase and attack them. Teenagers dream of romance and sex.Some dream researchers found in a study that people between 21 and 34 have more anxiety over issues of right and wrong in their dreams, possibly because they are making important decisions about career, marriage and life direction. People of ages 35 to 49 are much less hostile toward others in their dreams, perhaps because they’re reaching their greatest achievement, and have less need for aggression while awake. After age 65, anxiety about aging appears much more often in people’s dreams.If life stages affect our dreams, so do our attitudes. Studies show that angry people act out their anger in their dreams, and depressed people sometimes dream they are victims of rejection.Creative people often use their dreams to solve problems. According to author Naomi Epel, when some writers, artists or scientists go to sleep, they ask their subconscious for a dream that will help them solve problems.

His name was Max Hoffman.“Will our son die?” Max’s parents asked the doctor.“Maybe,” the doctor said quietly. “Stay with Max. Keep him warm. That’s all you can do.”For three days Max lay in his bed. Then he died. He was only five years old.Max’s parents buried their son in the town cemetery. That night Max’s mother had a terrible dream. She dreamed that Max was moving in his coffin. She screamed in her sleep.“Sh, sh,” her husband said. “It’s all right. You had a bad dream.”The next night Max’s mother screamed in her sleep again. She had the same terrible dream.On the third night Max’s mother had another bad dream. She dreamed that Max was crying. She got out of bed and got dressed. “Quick! Get dressed,” she told her husband. “We’re going to the cemetery. I want to see Max. I want to dig up his coffin.”At four o’clock in the morning Max’s parents and a neighbor hurried to the cemetery. They dug up Max’s coffin and opened it. There was Max. He looked dead. But he wasn’t lying on his back. He was lying on his side.Max’s father carried Max home. Then he ran to get the doctor. For an hour the doctor rubbed whiskey on Max’s lip and warmed his body. Then Max opened his eyes. Max was alive! A week later he was playing with his friends.Max Hoffman died—really died—in the United States in 1953.

I read with great interest your interpretation on dreams of teeth falling out. It is the same interpretation that many others use as well (needing to be heard etc). I myself had this dream repeatedly and was dying to know what it meant, as it was always confusing and disturbing. However, I was always unsatisfied with the “needing to be heard” thing.You might note that many people who have this dream are feeling worried, depressed or frightened as their teeth are falling out painlessly. Sometimes they even try to keep the teeth from falling out. Finally I came up with a different interpretation, which fitted much better for me. In fact, I’ve had fewer dreams of this sort now. So I thought you might be interested. For me, the dream means I am talking TOO MUCH. It means thoughtlessness, telling secrets, gossiping unwisely. And it’s my subconscious warning me. Now, if I have this dream, I know I have been unwise with my big mouth! Trying to cram the teeth back in, or stop them falling out, or trying to find a dentist, actually means trying to stop the words or gossip from coming out, and the feelings of depression are reflecting the regret of being too revealing—usually to an enemy. I am much more aware of this now and not such a big mouth! Maybe you could add this to your interpretations.BestKatie(243 words) Part ADirections: In this section, you’ll hear a letter to a newspaper column that provides interpretations of typical dreams regularly.

I think Jennifer’s nightmare has something to do with her fear of failure, failure in exams, failure in living up to her Parents’expectations etc. She probably didn’t do well at collage and she had experienced failures. What she feared in life was represented in her dream.2. I often have nightmares and my nightmares are generally the same. One typical nightmare I have is that I am chased by someone and I try to run fast but I can’t. And usually when I am about to be caught I wake up, sometimes sweating all over. I’ve told people about it and the interpretation given is that my schedule is too tight most of the time. I don’t know how Freud would interpret it, but the interpretation seems to make sense.ScriptPart AJennifer is talking to an interviewer about her nightmare.Jennifer: It was always the same. Always. I was in a house, a strange house, and I knew somehow that I shouldn’t have gone in. But there was some strange force pulling me. There were some stairs…very steep stairs… and I started to climb them, and … and then, suddenly fell. Then when I was at the bottom of the stairs, I suddenly realized that there was someone…or something else in the house with me, and that these eyes had been watching me all the time, and…I knew then that something terrible…was going to happen to me…that I was going to be punished…because I’d done something I shouldn’t have done. I didn’t know what it was, but I knew it was wrong, very wrong. Then I could hear it…whatever it was in the house withme…coming closer in the darkness, because everything was dark, you see, and it came closer and closer. And I was scared…and there was nothing, nothing I could do to avoid it…nothing. I was trapped! Trapped in that dark house at the bottom of the stairs. There was no way out.Interviewer: And how often…Jennifer: No way out !Part BInterviewer: How often have you had this nightmare?Jennifer: When I was in college, just about every time I had an exam. And then, a few years later, when I was taking an intensive Italian course in Italy, I had the same dream again. Just the same as before.Interviewer: And you discussed it with a psychoanalyst ?Jennifer: Yes, later, after I came back to Los Angles, I started therapy, and this dream came up, and we discussed it quite a bit.Interviewer: And what did the psychoanalyst say?Jennifer: He said…uh…you have to be very careful about interpreting dreams, but we both agreed that the dream was a symbol of my fear of failure…of disappointing my parents when I was in college, for example, by failing my dreams, or…or when I was taking that Italian course, I remember how scared I was sometimes.Interviewer: Scared of what?Jennifer: Of making mistakes in class, in front of the teacher or the other students. I was always in fear.Interviewer: I see.Jennifer: And the dream was a kind of classic symbol of that fear…of the fear of failure. Falling down stairs in a dream is a symbol of that. The two words are very similar.Interviewer: Which…which two words? Oh, you mean…Jennifer: Yes, fall-fail, falling-failure. Very similar, aren’t they?Listening IIKeysExercise 11.C2. A3. I4. H5. F6.

As a dream symbol, fish,particularly salmon, is associated with knowledge and intelligence. If you dream about eating fish, it is believed that you gain knowledge and wisdom.2.In dreams, the snake has many interpretations. It is regarded as a symbol oftemptation or wisdom. It is also interpreted as someone trying to harm you in underhanded or sneaky manner. In Chinese culture, it is believed that snake is a symbol of fortune in a dream.3.The sword in a dream is a symbol of power, authority, protection, or a need tocut away some part or aspect in your life.4.Something that is covered with dust is something that has not been touchedfor a long time. Therefore, dust in a dream may be a symbol of a shut away emotion, fear, or desire within the conscious.5.Houses in dreams are regarded by many psychoanalysts as representing one’spersonality. If you dream about a beautiful house, you could have a positive self-image. If you dream that you keep moving from house to house, you may have been trying different aspects of your personality, or you may be trying to find out what kind of person you are. And the level of the room in the house is believed to indicate the depth of a particular part of personality in you unconscious. But the basement in a dream, for instance, can be as a symbol of the deepest part your personality.6.Death in ad dream can mean the death or change to a part of yourpersonality or the end of a certain phase in your life, For instance, if you dream that a friend dies, it could mean that you have ended up or you have been feeling the need to end up a period of time spent with them.ScriptNew research shows that dreams are often distorted reflections of our daily life. many experts now believe our dreams are so closely related to our waking lives that we canuse them to help us recognize our inner conflicts.According to some experts, men and women dream differently because of biological and social conditioning.

It can be viewed as symbolizing “time”, which is compared to “tide” in the saying “ Time and tide wait for no man”. Or it can be interpreted as “death”, which, just as “time”, sweeps away people around us, no matter how eagerly we’d like them to stay.Exercise 3Sample1 This poem may have been addressed to his beloved (could be his wife) in her death bed, who received a farewell kiss from the poet. This can be seen from the first two lines: “ Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now,…”2 The poet’s hope is expressed in the second stanza. He wished that he could hold onto people and things that he treasured. But he could not stop the time and death taking away his beloved, however hard he tried. His helplessness led to his confusion, which can be seen from more questions posed by the poet in the second stanza. Physically, the poem is very interestingly laid out in two stanzas, just like two layers of dreams: the first being “life”, a dream, and the second layer “hope”, a dream within a dream, which is more confusing than the first. This idea is very similar to that in the movie Inception (《盗梦空间》) --- the more layers of dreams have, the less stable they become.3 The poet’s depressing tone may have resulted from his troubled and miserable life since his childhood. He felt betrayed by everyone. His mother, who died when he was a small child; his biological father, who abandoned him; his step father, who never legally adopted him and who, ultimately, cast him adrift; and, aboveall, his young dead wife, a beauty symbolizing purity and peace in his eyes. Life itself had seemingly thwarted (挫败) his every hope and effort.ScriptA Dream Within A DreamTake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow---You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yes if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?All that we see or seemIs but a dream within a dream.I stand amid the roarOf a surf-tormented shore,And I hold within my handGrains of the golden sand---How few!

Mary: Have a look at the beautiful scenery around you, darling. Don’t you think it’s too good to be true?John: Mm, maybe.Mary: Eh, you aren’t listening to me. What are you reading now?John: (He closes the book.) It’s Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams. Honey, have you ever wondered what’s …what’s the meaning of you dreams? You might get some satisfactory explanations for your dreams from this book, because Freud explains various kinds of dreams in it.Mary: It must be a very interesting book! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have ignored me. It seems to me that I’m not as attractive as Freud.John: Yes, it really is.Mary: Yes? ! You mean I’m not charming enough? I can hardly stand your rudeness. John: Of course not. I mean it’s really an interesting book. Freud says that everything in our dreams has something to do with our real life.Mary: Really? I often dream I’m gathering fruit in an orchard. What does fruit represent in our dreams?John: It predicts good fortune. You’ll be rich, honey.Mary: But the fact is we still can’t afford to buy a house.John: I have to admit that’s absolutely true. I spent about all I had on our honeymoon. Mary: Well, there must be something wrong with your interpretations, darling, I doubt whether dreams can predict the future.John: Before I can be more exact, you have to give me more details.Mary: What further information do you need?John: Well, honey, could you tell me what the color of the fruit is in your dreams? Mary: Er…the fruit doesn’t seem to be ripe. In my dreams, I think it’s green. John: I’ve got it. If the color of the fruit is green, you can’t be rich immediately,because only ripe fruit is interpreted as good fortune at hand.Mary: Oh? Are you sure about that?John: Definitely. I’ve just looked it up in Freud’s book.Mary: Then we’ll just have to wait and see?John: That’s right, honey. Do you have any other happy dreams?Mary: Yes. I had another one just now. It was so sweet that I smiled from ear to ear. Would you like to have another try, Mr. Freud?John:It’s my pleasure, madam. What happened in this dream? I guarantee you I can give you another good explanation.Mary: When I was dozing, I dreamed that you gave me a beautiful diamond necklace as memento of our wonderful honeymoon, what do you think that means?John:(He understands his wife’s actual intention and tries to find a way out.) Er…Er… I’m not sure. Er…maybe I’m not knowledgeable enough! But anyway I can turn to the book for help. Wait a minute!Mary: Take it easy, darling! I’m…I’m sure you know how you can make it come true.John: Too bad!Mary:What’s wrong?John: (He smiles cunningly at his wife.) I’m afraid Freud didn’t tell me how to interpret a daydream, only dreams at night.Mary: Daydream?!John: Yes, it must be a daydream since you had it during the day.Part 3 Video Appreciation and Singing for FunVideo AppreciationKeysExercise 1DEFFExercise 21)Mix the sound2)Drag you back3)seagulls4)taking a walk5)police siren6)pulls off the earphones7)alarming dreamsExercise 31)remained alert2)sounds of danger3)the reason4)are reliant on5)aliveExercise 4Sample●I fell asleep after a session of yoga to a light, soft background music once. Idreamed that I was lying on a beach, basking in the sun, with the waves lapping gently against the rocks, and seagulls flying over me. It was so comfortable and relaxing that I felt energetic again after I woke up from the nap.●I once traveled by train and saw a young mother fast asleep, with thepassengers around chattering away. However, she seemed to be very alert to her 3- or 4-year-old’s cry, even if it was in a very low voice. As I saw it, we can sleep through the sounds that we don’t care about, but tend to be dragged back to wakefulness by sounds that worry us.●I dreamed about taking a math test once before my college entranceexamination. I was still struggling with one tough problem when the bell rang sharply, which signaled the end of the test. I felt like being paralyzed in my seat, unable to move a single inch. When I woke up in misery and sweat, I found the bell was nothing but my alarm clock. To a college entrance exam taker, the bell is indeed a very threatening sound signal.ScriptEpisode 1We live in a world of incessant sounds. During our waking hours, our ears are bombarded with noise. But what happens when we’re asleep? Sleep takes up a third of our lives, and that’s when we’re at our most vulnerable. So our sense of hearing never goes off duty. Even as we sleep our ears detect sounds,and our brain analyses them. But why is it that some noises feature in our dreams, while others can wrench us from our sleep? Weird Science goes into the sleeping brain and our evolutionary past to find out. Every night when we go to sleep our senses shut down, except for our sense of hearing, which stays alert to sounds beyond the bedroom. Sounds are just tiny movements of the air molecules around us, funneled down the ear canal to the eardrum. The moving air makes the eardrum vibrate, and these vibrations are amplified by the tiniest bones in the body and passed to the fluid-filled cochlea. Here, the vibrations send ripples through the fluid which move rows of microscopic hair cells. These create electrical signals sent to the brain.Episode 2The brain may mix the sound into the visuals of your dreams, or drag you back to wakefulness. At Swansea University, Dr. Mrak Blaggrove studies the impact of different noises on the brains of sleeping volunteers. These electrodes allow Mark to monitor Sarah’s brainwaves while she sleeps. Once there are signs that she’s dreaming, he can test the effects of different sounds on her dreams. First she gets a blast of seagulls through her headphones. She sleeps through the noise. But has it changed herdream? (Hi Sarah) Mark waits for a couple of minutes, and then wakes her up and asks what she was dreaming about ( I was on a hilltop…Uh huh). Sarah’s dream was of taking a walk on a windy hilltop. An hour later, Sarah is asleep and dreaming again. Now, the test is a threatening sound --- a police siren. It’s no louder than the seagulls, and for a while, she sleeps through the noise. But then she stirs, and, half-conscious, she pulls off the earphones. Can she remember what she was dreaming about before the noise disturbed her? (Yeah, um ambulances…) Amazingly, even while she was asleep, Sarah heard the sirens and they triggered vivid, alarming dreams. The sound eventually convinced her sleeping brain to wake up.Episode 3So why does the brain deal with sounds in such different ways? The answer can be found in our prehistoric past. Our ancestors needed sleep, but it made them more vulnerable to attack by predators. To safeguard them, their sense of hearing remained alert, listening for the sounds of danger. Now the sounds are different, but the reason for hearing in your sleep is jus the same. For a third of your life, you’re reliant on your sense of hearing to keep you alive.

I read with great interest your interpretation of dreams of teeth falling out .It is the same interpretation that many others use as well : needing to be heard etc. I myself had this dream repeatedly and was dying to know what it meant , as is was always confusing and disturbing . However , I was always unsatisfied with the “ needing to be heard ” thing.Your might note that many people who have this dream are feeling worried , depressed or frightened as their teeth are falling out painlessly .Sometime they even try to keep the teeth from falling out . Finally I came up with a different interpretation , which fitted me much better . In fact , I’ve had fewer dreams of this so rt now .So I thought you might be interested .For me , the dream means I am talking TOO MUCH . It means thoughtlessness ,telling secrets , gossiping unwisely . And it’s my subconscious warning me .Now ,if I have this dream ,I know I have been unwise with my big mouth ! Trying to cram the teeth back in , or stop them falling out ,or trying to find a dentist , actually means trying to stop the words or gossip from coming out , and the feelings of depression are reflecting the regret of being too revealing –usuallyto an enemy . I am much more aware of this now and not such a big mouth ! Maybe you could add to your interpretation,Best,KatieListening IVKeysExercise 1DCBDExercise 2TFTFFTScriptSleep is something we generally associate with living creatures. Of course, it is true that a lot of animals sleep, but zoologists are not certain that primitive forms of animals life, like worms and snails, even really sleep. On the other hang, animals such as bears sleep for 4 or 5 months every year.The amount of sleep a human being needs depends on age, the individual and possibly race. .For example, doctors think that pre-school children need between 10 and12 hours a night; school children between 9 and 11 hours, and adults between 7and9 hours. There are exceptional cases of old people who sleep only between 2 and 3 hours a day and continue to be active and healthy. The sleep requirements of different races also appear to be different. Japanese people, for example, sleep, sleep fewer hours than Europeans.It is not known for certain if certain if mental activity (apart from dreaming) occurs when a person is asleep. However, it is certainly true that some people can wake up at a specific, pre-determined time. There are also stories about mathematicians who solve difficult problems during sleep, because their subconscious minds continue working on the problem.Some types of unpleasant dreams (or ‘‘nightmares’’)are quite common, the dreams is taking a test, but is not properly prepared. he is falling from a tree ,or an animal or thing is chasing him. Some people say these last two occur because man’s ancestors lived in trees and were in constant danger from wild animals.。
