Unit 6 The Mind
Track 2-6-2(P97)
Manolo: Galina, let’s get some lunch before our next
class.
Galina: Okay. Wow, that English test was difficult!
Manolo: I know.
Galina: For me, the hard part is the vocabulary. I just can’t
remember it all.
Manolo: Well, there are things you can do...
Track 2-6-3(P98)
Galina: Really?
Manolo: Yeah. One thing I do is label things in
English.
Galina: What do you mean?
Manolo:For example, I write the word chair on a small piece of
paper. Then I put the paper on a chair in my house.
Galina: Hmmm...Good idea.
Manolo: And here is another idea: When I learn a word, I also
learn related words.
Galina: For example?
Manolo: Well, when I learned the word film, I made a note
of a similar word...
Galina: Movie!
Manolo: Exa
ctly! Then I added related words like actor and movie
star, and verbs like rent and see. Here’s another
idea...
C. Keys: 1. Two tips. One is to label things in English. The
other is to make a note of related words.
2. You
can rent a film and see it at home

Woman: Morning, Simon. Wow, you look tired.

dream. I was in a classroom at school, but I didn’t have any
clothes on. No one looked at me, but I was really
embarrassed.

Woman: Jesse, Jesse, Wake up. You’re having a
nightmare.
Male child: Oh, what a terrible dream. I dreamed I was on a dark
street. Suddenly, there was a large dog behind me. It ran toward
me, but I couldn’t move.
Woman: Don’t worry, Jesse. It was only a dream. Go back to
sleep.
Conversation 3
Man1: Morning Tim.
Man2: Morning. Hey, I had an amazing dream last night. I was on
a beautiful boat. The sun was warm and the ocean was really blue. I
jumped into the water, and I began to swim with the fish. The thing
is, I can’t swim. But in the dream, I could. It was pretty
cool.
Track 2-6-7(P100)
I had an amazing dream last night. At, first, I was standing
outside of a strange big house. The house was painted pink, a very
rare color for a house. It had a lot of big windows, either round
or rectangular. The house had large square pillars and twisted
columns. I was thinking there must be a big living room, several
bedrooms, a kitchen, and a guest room in such a big house. I was
wondering whose house this was when I suddenly heard a voice
saying: “welcome home.” Wow, this dream house was mine.
I went inside and walked into my living room. It was spacious.
There were sofas, a table, a big-screen TV, and a stereo system. It
was pretty cool. All my best friends were there, too. But somehow
they didn’t speak, didn’t smile, and didn’t even move. And then
suddenly they all disappeared. I was scared. What a terrible
dream.
I then went to the kitchen. It was also spacious. There were all
kinds of kitchen equipment, including a gas stove, a refrigerator,
and an oven. There also many electric appliances, such as a
microwave oven, an electric mixer, and a food processor. I liked
the food processor the most, which made life much easier. There was
also a dining table in the middle of the room. The whole family was
sitting around the table, waiting for the meal to be served. But
the fridge was empty, and the gas stove didn’t work. And there was
no electricity at all for the microwave oven and the food
processor. The hungry kids started to cry. I was in despair. And
then suddenly I woke up.
B. Keys: 2. didn’t speak or smile (spoke to me and
smiled)
3. all ( a few) 4.sitting(standing)
Track 2-6-10(P101)
Scientists know that the brain is very active when a person is
sleeping. There are five stages, or parts, of sleep. Stage 1 starts
after you fall asleep. If there is a noise or a bright light, you
wake up very easily. In stage 2, your brain waves are very slow. In
stage 3 and 4, you are in deep sleep. It’s very difficult to wake
up then. Your body rests and grows during these stages. Stage 5 is
when you dream. Your eyes move a lot, and your brain waves are
fast. This stage of sleep is very important for your memory. After
stage 5, you wake up a little, and then stage 1 starts again. We go
through the five stages of sleep four or five times every night, so
we have many dreams in one night.
How much sleep do you need? The answer depends on your age.
Babies should sleep 15 to 16 hours every day. Children and
teenagers need 9 or 10 hours of sleep, but older people only need 6
to 8 hours. If you sleep for only four hours one night, you may
just feel tired the next day. But many nights of bad sleep can be
bad for your health. People who don’t get enough sleep get sick
more often. And sleep is very important for learning. It’s one
reason why students should go to bed early.
B. Keys: 1. Four or five times 2. Stage 3 and 4
3. Fifteen to sixteen hours a day 4. Sleep is very
important for learning
Track 2-6-12(P102)
For centuries, people have asked: why do we dream? What do our
dreams mean? Today, science doesn’t have definite answers to these
questions, but we do know some things about dreams. First, we all
dream, often 4 to 5 times a night. Second, we don’t usually
remember most of our dreams. And finally, when we dream, our brains
are very active.
Thousands of years ago, people began to study dreams. In many
cultures, people believed dreams were messages from spirits or
gods. Later, the ancient Greeks and Romans had a new idea: Dreams
come from a person’s mind. Doctors studied dreams to help sick or
worried people.
Track 2-6-13(P103)
I n the past, some cultures used dreams to predict the future.
They thought dreams could help a person choose a husband or wife,
guess a baby’s birthday, or starts a business. IN some places, this
practice is still common.
Today, scientists think dreams are about our thoughts and
feelings. Our minds send us messages about our lives.
Unfortunately, many messages are often strange or confusing. People
wake up and think: What did that dream mean?
So, how can you understand the messages in your dreams? Think
about the events in the dream. What do they say about your life?
For example, one common dream is about flying. Sometimes this dream
means you feel free or want freedom. Other times it means you feel
afraid. What do your dreams tell you about your life?
