Dreams are necessary in our life. We know that about 25% of our _ 21__ time is spent dreaming. This is true for everyone, whether you are the kind of person who ordinarily remembers your dreams or not. Often our dreams show us “the other side of the picture”, 22 us aware of the things we have failed to take conscious 23 of during the day. For instance, if you dream that your new boss, who seems gruff (语言粗暴的) and unfriendly during the working hours, is smiling at you and 24 you for your work, perhaps you have subliminally (下意识地) 25 up signals that day that his bark is worse than his bite.
All of us need dreams, and the 26 we are, the more necessary they appear to be. Babies spend 27 half their sleep in the dreaming phase. When adult subjects in an experiment were given drugs that eliminated(排除)their 28 for several nights, they became increasingly irritable(易怒的) and 29 , and often began having difficulty concentrating. Too much dreaming appears to have its drawbacks too. If you doze late on Sunday mornings, you often wake up feeling tired. The 30 is that the more you sleep, the longer your dreams become.
