Answer 1

【答案】

 

1.Sleeping positions and personalities

由第一段中的“…your sleeping position shows the real you．”以及后文的分析可知文章主要讲了一个人的睡觉姿势与性格有关系。

2.You’re very stubborn，but you aren’t very ambitious．

要答对该题，需要抓住两个点，一是stick to your own opinion，再就是have far-reaching goals，只要搞清楚了它们的含义，就不难得出答案了。

3.be on your own／stay alone

根据上文的“You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people．”可推知答案。

4.I often sleep on my stomach．I will try to be happy，listen to good advice and make a good plan  for tomorrow．

该题为开放性问题，要求学生根据自己的情况作答，一般没有标准答案。

5.当你醒着时，你不会表露出你隐藏的性格，因为你能控制自己的行为；但是当你睡着时，你的睡姿会显露出真正的你。
