secon year test

Part One: Reading and interpreting (14 points).
Read the text carefully then do the activities.
Dream is the story that a person "watches" or appears to take part during sleep. Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences in the dreamer's life. They seem real to the dreamer while they are taking place. There are many types of dreams. Some are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening.
Everyone dreams, but some people never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls every dream and, in general, dreams are very easily forgotten.
Many experts who study dreams also feel that they are related to deep whishes and fears of the dreamer, and several theories explaining the meaning of dreams have been developed. Freud suggested that dreams are fulfillments of wishes, usually in disguised form. Some scientists have suggested that biological discoveries about dreams have made psychological theories of dreaming, such as feud's, unnecessary or false. These scientists argue that a dream is a meaningless response of the cerebral cortex to random stimulation from the brain stem.
The biology involved does not make dreams meaningless any more than it makes waking thought meaningless. Most psychologists and psychiatrist still consider dreams psychologically meaningful.
