schoolthese are among the most common dreams people have and they all mean somethinghere are some of the most common dreams and their interpretations or symbolismdreams of flyingdreams of flying represent feelings of freedom that may result from an instance when you overcome a limitation or obstacleusually, children have more flying dreams than adults, because children are more open to their possibilities, and adults have often accepted limitations imposed by societyteeth falling outfood in a dream is symbolic of knowledge because food nourishes the physical body and knowledge nourishes the soulteeth are a means to break down food or knowledgewhen your teeth fall out in a dream, it could signify that you feel ill - equipped to break down the knowledge that you have available, that the way you break things down has changedthat change can be either positive or negativehigh school dreamshigh school is a place of learning from the past, and dreaming of being unprepared for a high school test can indicate a struggle to access information you need to handle in your liferecurring dreams and nightmaresrecurring dreams are your subconscious （潜意识）minds way of trying to get your attentiona recurring dream is a step down from a nightmare that is a louder, more insistent way your subconscious mind communicatesif you have a recurring dream, try to stop in the dream and identify what the dream is trying to tell youthat could mean asking someone who is chasing you what he or she wantsa woman dreamed for years that an old, haggard woman was chasing her around her homewhen she finally stopped in the dream and asked the old woman what she represented, the old woman suddenly turned into a beautiful young woman and replied, i represent your question of what if? 61the text is mainly about _ahigh school dreamsbdreams symbolismcdreams of flying dnightmares62after you ve got out of some difficulties, you might have a _ahigh school dream bdream of flyingcdream of teeth falling out da nightmare63if you dream of being unprepared for a high school test, it means_ayou re trying to learn somethingbyou will certainly fail in the testcyou will be scolded by your teacherdyou re not well prepared for the test64the underlined word identify in the last paragraph most probably means_abreak out brecall cmake out dexplain65the woman s dream is mentioned mainly to _atell us nothing but an interesting storybshow us what a nightmare is likectell us that women are always changeabledshow us the way to deal with a recurring dream66the way people hold to the belief that a fun - filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. if fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. but in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.as a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. they fear the pain inevitably(不可避免的)brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment (义务), self - improvement.ask a bachelor(单身汉)why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. if he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. for commitment is in fact quite painful. the single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three - day vacation. i dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. but couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. it liberates（解放） time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. it liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. and it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.1. according to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _ .a. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageb. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singlec. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesd. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement2. raising children, in the authors opinion is _ .a. a rewarding task b. a thankless jobc. a moral duty d. a source of inevitable pain3. from the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from(由造成)_ .a. hatred b. ignorance c. prejudice(偏见)d. misunderstanding4. to understand what true happiness is one must _ .a. have as much fun as possible during ones lifetimeb. be able to distinguish happiness from func. put up with pain under all circumstancesd. make every effort to liberate oneself from pain5. what is the author trying to tell us?a. it is important to make commitments b. one must know how to attain happiness.c. happiness often goes hand in hand with pain. d. it is pain that leads to happiness.四、短文改错67假设你校举办看图征文活动，题目为“how to protect your
