People built walls to 21 influence from the other town.In Pressure, 22 struggled to be the very best. When women gave birth, they would 23_ to have the baby with the loudest cry. There was violent competition in every aspect of life. Because 24 was the index (指数) of success, people were 25 busy making money, with 26 for relaxation. Some young people couldnt bear the hard work and turned to wine or drugs to escape. 27 , over in Pleasure, the motto was “As long as you like it, do it.” People grew up without 28 and 29 do anything they liked. Children played computer games day and night. At school, teachers didnt 30 whether students showed up or not. Workers might sit around the office 31 sipping coffee and doing nothing. 32 the lack of strict rules, nobody worried about losing their jobs. It was 33 that mattered. No one had the 34 thought of moving forward, either for themselves or for the town. The computers they used were 35 models from Pressure.Some of the young were addicted (上瘾) to 36 because of the meaninglessness of their lives. Then, people in the two towns began asking themselves, “What is 37 for?” But, just before life in the two towns completely 38 , there came a wise man Mr. Reason. He went from door to door, talking with people and giving advice. People in Pressure learnt to be 39 with what they had, while people in Pleasure began to make plans.

Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.Phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal (胎儿的) position. He found that this is the most common bedtime position, with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. The more we curl up (蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to Phipps. The second most common position is the log. Sleeping with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace, indicates stubbornness, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep.“The longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,” according to Phipps.Yearner (向往) sleepers are next on the list. About 25 percent of people sleep in this styleon their side with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves. Yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting the best results, explained Phipps. These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead. Perhaps the most peculiar (奇怪的) of sleep styles is the freefaller position. This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population. They sleep face down with arms stretched out. These people, according to Phipps, feel like they have little control over their life. Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, but also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeing tired and have no energy.In conclusion, Phipps has only one more thing to add: “A good nights sleep set you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”41.
