Have you ever had lucid (清醒的) dreams? Recent studies suggest that the number of people having them is on the rise. Someone having a lucid dream realizes they are dreaming and may from then on" direct" the action, or they may simply " watch" the dream unfold. The sense of awareness (知道) makes it different from a dream that is simply very lively and true to life. And although the description may seem strange, the process is far from alien to many of us.

Studies suggest that the number of people in the Western world experiencing lucid dreams, which happen once in a while, has risen by between 10 and 40 per cent since the 1980s. Today, they are so common that about one in eight of us will have one in our lives. But still, little is known about what causes them or what is behind the rise.

Research carried out at the respected Harvard University in the US shows that the brain is working hard during lucid dreams. In fact, the level of the mental (精神

的) activity in some parts of the brain is similar to that of a person who is awake. Lucid dreamers seem to share certain personal characters. For example, in general they are quite creative. They are also good at digging deep into problems and going out of their way to solve them. Furthermore, they always believe in personal responsibility rather than letting society carry the can.

Our nightmares (噩梦) may show our waking worries, with the five most common ones-- falling, being run after, feeling disabled, being late and the death of a loved one. Men are more likely to have nightmares about fights or being fired while hair and tooth loss appear more in women's nightmares-perhaps showing worries about losing their looks. Research has also found that women have more nightmares than men. Their dreams are also scarier and more unforgettable.

My grandparents lived in a small village near a hill. Before the summer vacation started, I {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(decide) to spend it with them. I never lived in the countryside before, so I knew nothing about{#blank#}2{#/blank#} life there.

When I lived with my grandparents, I was interested in {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(learn) what life was like when my father was little. Then my grandmother told me about it and she also told me some funny stories about my father. My grandmother kept many chickens and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(duck). In the morning, they went out. I worried they wouldn't come back home, {#blank#}5{#/blank#}I finally knew that I didn't need to worry. They all came back home after some time.

One day, my grandmother took me to a market in the village. When we just got there, it started to rain. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(lucky), we took an umbrella. At the market, a woman sold hand- made clothes. They were not expensive, so I bought a skirt for {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(I) with my pocket money. The next day, we went to my {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(grandfather) farm. I saw my grandfather feed the pigs and cows. He told me a lot of things about farming and I learned much {#blank#}9{#/blank#} him.

I lived in the countryside for over {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(first) month. It was an interesting trip for me.
