When I first had the idea of selling books on the Internet, I went to my boss and said to him, “You know, Im going to start this company selling books online.” This was something that I had already been talking to him about, but then he said, “Lets go on a walk.” And we went on a two-hour walk in Central Park in New York City.After walking for a while, he said, “You know, this sounds like a really good idea to me, but it might be a better idea for somebody who didnt already have a good job.” He let me think about it for 48 hours before making the final decision.When I talked to my wife about this, she thought I was doing the right thing and said, “Look, you know Ill always support you, whatever you want to do.” So it really was a decision that I had to make for myself.

It is a dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Their findings have made public that everyone dreams from three to seven times at night, although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams. While the subjects(研究对象) usually students are asleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.Observers report that a person usually moves restlessly（焦躁不安地） before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and hid eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dream is over, a buzzer（蜂鸣器） wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleepperhaps to dream some more.Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can usually remember the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have begun to disappear gradually.31. According to the passage, researchers at the University of New York are studying _.A)the meaning of dreamsB)the cause of dreamsC)dreamers while t
