Dreams may be more important than sleep．Some people don’t need much sleep．But we all need to dream, scientists say．
Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time．
People have several dreams each night．Dreams are like old films．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 could have been thinking about their work all day．These thoughts can carry over into dreams．
Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream．But often we can’t remember the dream．Dreams can disappear(消失)quickly from memory．
Too much dreaming can be harmful(有害的)．The more we sleep, the longer we dream．That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired．

How do you remember the way to your house? Where do dreams come from? It is your brain(大脑)that does these things．A British scientist showed that “sleep can improve one’s memory．” It’s not a dream for students to study when they sleep．In fact, your brains is working day and night．If you learn words before bed, a certain part of the brain may help you to remember the words while you sleep．What’s more, another scientist in the USA found that there was a “talent button(天才按钮)” in the human brain．It might make a person more talented．
There are more interesting things about the brain．Your brain uses less energy than a fridge light．Just two bananas can give the brain enough energy to work for a whole day．According to some scientists, yawning(打哈欠)keeps our brains “cool”, which makes us think quicker．
Here are some pieces of advice to keep a good brain：
●Eat healthy food．
●Get a lot of playtime or exercise．
●Don’t drink or smoke．
●Use your brain a lot．

Time flies like a bird．As I got older, I became silent and found it hard to start a conversation with my father．The gap between us began to grow．He had done so much for me but I always take it for granted．
Last time our school gave us two days off, and daddy gave me a ride home on his motorbike．I was tired and fell asleep on his back．Later my mother said he was very happy because is had been a long tome since we got close last．Suddenly I felt a little shamed．I realized that I had ignored(忽略)him a lot during the last few years．
The next day I stayed in bed and when daddy tried to wake me up to have breakfast, I pretended that I couldn't hear him．At last he brought a bowl of noodles to my bed, and said, “Come on, dear, have your breakfast and then continue your dream．” I got so angry with him for interrupting my sleep that I shouted, “Leave me alone．”
As I said this, I sat up quickly, and the bowl of noodles broke on the floor．Hearing the noise, mum came in and shouted at me, “Why do you think your father is? Who else treats you as well as he does? ”
I was shocked and didn't know what to say．Finally I rushed with tear all over my face．I went to the pool where I used to go fishing with daddy．A few minutes later, I heard the sound of daddy's motorbike．He was looking for me anxiously, but he didn't notice me as I was sitting behind a tall brush．
I didn't return home until 10 a．m．．The moment my parents saw me, they rushed to me．Mum hugged me tightly and daddy looked at me with worry in his eyes．“Are you hungry, dear? ” he said at last．Before I could say anything, he had gone off on his motorbike to buy food for me．
