五、阅读理解.(10分)
Do you remember your dreams? Do people have the same dreams? Why do we dream? There are many questions about dreams. We dream during the REM(rapid eye movement) stage of sleep. We have about five periods of REM sleep during the night. The first REM cycle(周期)lasts about 10 minutes. As the night goes on, the REM cycle gets longer. By early morning, the REM cycle can last up to 90 minutes. Usually, it is in this last REM cycle that we remember our dreams.
Dreams change as people age. People may have several dreams each night. Some are like films and usually in colour. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something and trying to find the answer. Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can't remember the dreams clearly.
It is reported that too much dreaming is bad for our health. The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work. That is why we may have a long sleep and still feel tired when we wake up.

Dear Lucy,
1.How is it going? It has been a month since I left you. I miss you and Lily. How about you and all of our teachers?
I am new here. So at first I felt nervous because my Chinese was not good. In fact, so far, I have learned Chinese for three months. At first, I couldn't understand what the teachers said. But later, my partner talked with me for a long time and she wanted to help me. So, every Friday afternoon, she helps me with my Chinese and I help her with English. 2. We have been getting on well with each other. Even we often have lunch together and sometimes go to school together. I think I have really become a member(成员)of our class. They are all friendly to me. So I feel happy now. I am afraid I must stop now, for I haven't finished my homework yet. Please write to me soon.
Yours,
Mary

How I Change
My life has changed a lot in the past three years. I was fat and shorter when I came to the middle school. At that time, I was interested in computer games and I spent most of the time on it. My parents were worried about me,
Now, I like sports and 1 often play basketball with my classmates after school, So I become taller and stronger than before. I like reading, too. I usually go to the library to read some interesting books. Good habits help me to study better and keep healthier. My parents and my teachers are all pleased with me.
