More than 50,000,000 people live in the rainforests of the world and most of them do not hurt the forest they live in. They eat the fruits that grow on the forest trees, but they do not cut them down. They kill some animals to eat, but they do not destroy them.
When we cut down the rainforests, we destroy these forest people, too. In 1900, there were 1,000,000 forest people in the Amazon forest. In 1980, there were only 200,000.
The Yanomami live along the rivers of the rainforest in the north of Brazil. They have lived in the rainforest for about 10,000 years and they use more than 2,000 different plants for food and for medicine. But in 1988, someone found gold in their forest, and suddenly 45,000 people came to the forest and began looking for gold. They cut down the forest to make roads. They made more than a hundred airports. The Yanomami people lost land and food. Many died because new diseases came to the forest with the strangers.
The Yanomami people tried to save their forest, because it was their home. But the people who wanted gold were stronger.
Many forest people try to save their forests. Chico Mendes was famous in Brazil because he wanted to keep the forest for his people. “I want the Amazon forest to help all of us-forest people Brazil, and all the Earth,” he said. A few months later, in December 1988, people who wanted to cut down the forest killed Chico Mendes.
In Borneo, people were cutting down the forest of the Penan people to sell the wood. The Penan people tried to save their rainforest. They made blockades across the roads into the forest. In 1987, they closed fifteen roads for eight months. No one cut down any trees during that time.
In Panama, the Kuna people saved their forest. They made a forest park which tourists pay to visit.
The Gavioes people of Brazil use the forest, but they protect it as well. They find and sell the Brazil nuts(坚果) which grow on the forest trees.

Everybody dreams. But only some people remember their dreams. Our dreams often include all the senses-smells, sounds, sights, tastes and things we touch. We dream in colour. Sometimes we dream the same dream over
and over again. These repeated dreams are often unpleasant. They may even be nightmares-bad dreams that
frighten us.
Early in the twentieth century, two famous scientists developed their personal ideas about dreams.
Austrian psychiatrist Sigmund Freud published (出版) a book called "The Interpretation (诠释) of Dreams"
in 1900. Freud believed people often dream about things they want but can't have. These dreams
often have something to do with sex and aggression (侵犯行为). Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung worked
closely with Freud for several years, but he believed dreams could help people grow and understand
themselves. He believed dreams provide solutions (解决办法) to problems we face when we are awake.
He didn't believe dreams hide our feelings about sex or aggression. Today we know more about the science
of dreaming because researchers can take pictures of people's brains while they are sleeping.
Other researchers are studying how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and very sad emotions. Robert Stick gold is a professor of psychiatry at Harvard University in Massachusetts. Doctor Stick gold says
that when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world. He does not agree with Sigmund Freud
that dreaming is the way we express our hidden feelings and desire (愿望).
Scientists believe it is important to keep researching dreams. Doctor Stick gold says it has been more than
one hundred years since Sigmund Freud published his important book about dreaming. Yet there is still no agreement on exactly how the brain works when we are dreaming or why we dream.
B. express all that we think in our mind
C. include few senses and things we touch
D. are sometimes nightmares that repeat and frighten us
B. Robert Stickgold
C. Carl Jung
D. the writer
B. think dreams always hide someone's feelings about sex or aggression
C. study dream and dreaming and have their own ideas
D. have the same idea that people often dream about the things they want
B. Freud developed the idea that dreams are expressions of people's hidden feelings
C. scientists have known quite well why we dream because they can take pictures of our brains
D. other researchers have discovered how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and
very sad emotions
B. The Ways of Dreams.
C. The Solutions to Dreams.
D. The Mystery (奥秘) of Dreams and Dreaming.
