Dream is a story that a person“watches”or even takes part in during sleep. Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer’s life. They seem real while they are taking place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are sad, and still others are frightening.

In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, and they may also hear, smell, touch, and taste in their dreams.

Dreams are a product of the sleeper’s mind. They include events and feelings that he has experienced. Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and strong wishes of the dreamer. Deep wishes or fears-especially those held since childhood-often appear in dream. Events in the sleeper’s surrounding-a loud noise, for example, may become part of a dream, but they do not cause dreams.

Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams.

A. why we dream during sleep  B. how we dream during sleep

When I was young, I wanted to be a model, so when a national competition was nearby, I asked my parents to take me for an audition(試演) and they agreed, I was selected and told I had potential. They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event that a number of the most famous modeling agenies(中介) from around the world would attend. At 13, my hopes of fame and fortune(名利) clouded my judgment and I begged my parents to let me go. We have never been rich, but they saw my enthusiasm and at last they agreed.
I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For .months, any boredom or disappointment that I faced disappeared because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model. I thought I would appear in the covers of famous magazines!
Of course, I wasn't signed, but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5'9' (about 1.75 meters) I could be a success. I sprayed for a growth spurt(沖刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I met with a local modeling agency and the agent required $500 for classes, $500 for a photo shoot(拍攝), and $300 for other fees. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of my begging.
The agency sent me out on a few auditions but with every day I did not receive a call, I grew more disappointed. The final chance came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling. There was an open call(公開挑it) in New York City. We spent hours driving and spent another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short, I could hardly stand it.
Years later, I realize that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn't actually love modeling, just the idea of it.1 wanted to be special and I naively(天真地)decided to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future.
【小題1】The author wanted to be a model, because_______.

A.she won a national contest
B.she wanted to be famous and rich
C.she was urged by some modeling agencies
D.she had full potential to be a successful model
【小題2】The author's parents' attitude toward her dream is_______.

A.her parents were strongly against it
B.she realized that it was impossible for her.
C.even a local modeling agency turned her down
D.she realized that she didn't actually love the idea of modeling
【小題4】From her experience of struggling to be a model, the author learned that
A.where there is a will there is a way
B.being a model is not so easy
C.we should have our own judgment and should not just follow others
