If you do, you might have noticed so

22、mething interesting some of your friends seldom remember their dreams, but some can always describe their dreams so clearly that it seems like theyre describing things that really happened to them. What makes those people different?The answer is simple. There are two different types of dreamers low

23、dream recallers（回忆者）and high dream recallers.Low dream recallers usually remember their dreams only twice a month. But high dream recallers are able to remember them about five mornings a week. And a new study suggests that activity in a certain part of the brain could have something to do with it,

24、reported The Huffington Post.Perrine Ruby, a French researcher at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center, studied 41 people (21 high dream recallers and 20 low dream recallers) and recorded their brain activity.She found that a part of the brain called the temporo-parietal junction (颞顶联合区) was more a

25、ctive in high dream recallers than in low dream recallers both when they were sleeping and awake.This brain area collects and processes（编程）information from the outside world. This means that high dream recallers know more about whats happening around them. For example, when they are awake, they resp

26、ond (对有反应) more strongly to hearing their own names, and when they are sleeping, they are woken more easily by sounds and movements. By closely studying peoples brain activities, Ruby found that high dream recallers have twice as much “wakefulness time” during sleep as low dream recallers do. And it

27、 is during these short times of wakefulness that the brain remembers dreams. “The sleeping brain is not able to remember new information,” Ruby told The Washington Post. “It needs to wake up to be able to do that.” This is not hard to understand. Just try to think of your own sleeping experiences. I

28、f you are worried during the night, you are more likely to remember your dreams, but if you sleep well, you will remember little in the morning, and this is because “you never get a chance to remember”, Robert Stickgold, a Harvard Medical School researcher, told The Washington Post.1According to the

31、rch.C15、We all know China is a nation with a very long history and ancient culture. Its people are known as the most hospitable people in the world. If you visit a Chinese family, you will be surprised at the warmth that you receive as a guest.Firstly, you will feel comfortable with their greetings.

32、 For example, “Are you busy these days?”, “How are things going on with you?”, “Hows your trip here?” etc. Then they will serve you with tea and snacks. The host, one of the family members, will usually chat with you in order to make you feel important.At the same time, the hostess(女主人) and other fa

33、mily members will cook a big dinner for you. They always prepare more food than you can eat. During the meal, the guest must be the first one to pick up the food. The host will pick food for the guest, which is impolite in the west. But this is a very Chinese way to show their warmth.After the meal,

34、 they will go on chatting again with tea and snacks. In the end, when youre about to leave, they will ask you to stay longer again and again. A perfect entertainment(招待) will be over by the whole family seeing you off.Being warm has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Co

There has been a 35% increase in the number of pe

39、ople in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness(近视) since smartphones were introduced there in 1997.Staring(盯) at smartphones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink(自动眨眼) a certain number of times. However, when you look at things c

40、loser to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smartphones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔) become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can

41、do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma(青光眼).While youre probably not going to stop using to your smartphone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes.

49、cult in the West.
