Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（10分） Dreams "Last night I had an unusual dream. I dreamed that I was flying. When I moved arms up and down, I moved higher and higher into the sky. I felt as free as a bird," — Martin, age 35. "I had a bad dream — a nightmare — that kept coming back. I walked out of my bedroom, and a monster came out and ran after me. One night, when the monster was running after me, I turned back and said, 'Leave me alone!' I haven't had the dream again since then." — Jason, age 14. What do these dreams mean? For thousands of years, people have tried to interpret dreams(释梦). Many modern dream researchers have come up with theories(理论) about dreams. They believe that dreams tell us what is going on in our lives. Usually, flying is a positive(积极的) symbol in a dream. Flying in dreams means success, control, confidence, and "being on top of it all". So Martha, the person who had the first dream, may be in love or may have success at work. Monster in dreams often represent(代表) fears. For Jason, the monsters may represent the adults who control his life. Or it may represent Jason's fears about growing up. But Jason showed that he was able to conquer(克服) his fears. Here are some common symbols in dreams. Snakes: If you dream about snakes, there will be good changes in your life. For the ancient Greeks, dreams with snakes were the most positive ones. And dream interpreters still say the same today. Big wave: Water in dreams often means emotional concerns. A big wave probably means an emotional worry. If you can guess the problem, you'll be able to solve it and be happier. Teeth: If you dream that your teeth fall out, you may be worried about your appearance. Or it might mean that you have dental problems. (牙齿问题) Falling: If you dream that you are falling, you may feel that your life is out of control. Slow down, and figure out how to solve the problem in your dreams. So what are your dreams telling you? 77. Martin had a usual dream last night, didn't he? （1分） _____________________________________________________________________. 78.
