  Dreams may be more important than sleep.Some people don't need much sleep.But we all need to dream, scientists say.

  Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time.People have several dreams each night.Dreams are like short films.They are usually in colour.Some dreams are like old films.They come to us over and over again.That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something.Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.

  Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams.They could have been thinking about their work all day.These thoughts can carry over into dreams.

  Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream.But often we can't remember the dream.Dreams can disappear quickly from memory.

  Too much dreaming can be harmful.The more we sleep, the longer we dream.The mind is hard at work when we dream.That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.

  I used to dream about Pisa when I was a boy.I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa (比薩斜塔).But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of pizza.I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza.It must be the best pizza in the world,I thought.

  Many years later I finally saw the Leaning Tower.I knew then it was Pisa and not pizza.But there was still something special about it for me.The tower got its name because it really does lean to one side.Some people want to try,to fix (整修) it.They are afraid it may fall over and they do not like the way it looks.
