“Dream may be more important than sleep. We all need to dream ,” some scientists say.

   Dream takes up (占據(jù)) about one quarter (四分之 一) of our sleeping time. People have a few dreams each night. Dreams are like short movies. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old movies. They come to us over and over again.    That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.

Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may think about their work all day. These thoughts (想法) can carry over into dreams.

   Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can't remember the dream.

Too much dreaming can be harmful (有害的) . The more we sleep,the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.

   There is an old Italian tradition called “suspended (待用)coffee”. There,you pay for two cups of coffee but only take one,so that someone can go into the cafe and enjoy the other coffee for free. This way,no-money people can still enjoy coffee.

    Now,this model is catching on in China. It is “suspended fast food. ” Many people think it's a great way to help someone who is more disadvantaged (寫導(dǎo)勢(shì) 的) than us. On the other hand,some people don't think it's a good idea. They don't know if these people taking the meals are really in need of help or just out for a free lunch. Also,how do we know the restaurant owners won’t just pocket (隱藏) the money and give out (分發(fā)) the food?
