A woman decided that she had to go to the toilet. So she got up and walked to the back of the plane. The toilet door was clearly marked ‘TOILET’, but the woman opened a door next to the toilet. This door was the emergency exit and, when she opened it, the evacuation slide (逃生滑梯) opened. Because of this, the plane was not able to take off.

All the passengers had to leave the plane. When the evacuation slide has opened, there are two possibilities. Workers can change the slide at the airport, but the flight will be delayed for a long time. Or the plane can take off without an evacuation slide and replace it when it has landed, but the number of passengers on the plane must be smaller for safety reasons.

Thirty-eight passengers had to stay at a hotel at the Airport and take another flight the next day. The other passengers got back on the plane, and it finally took off at 05:10 on Saturday morning. It arrived in Tokyo at 14:10. Some passengers found that their luggage was still in Italy. But perhaps they were lucky …

A study published in 1896 looked at different sensory (感官的) experiences in dreams. It found visual (視覺的) experience ______ controls one’s dreams. It takes up about 85%, while auditory (聽覺的) makes up 69%, and smell only 7%.

But why? Now scientists have possible reasons based on what is known about the brain.

In our brain, there is a special part called the cerebral cortex (大腦皮層). It is linked to our feelings. As much as two-thirds of the cerebral cortex works in vision (視力). So vision

______ often in dreams. Auditory is closely tied to language, and language is processed entirely in the cerebral cortex. Smell, ______, has little to do with the cerebral cortex. It connects directly into the memory and emotional systems. That’s why a smell can bring back a memory.

Another ______ is that perhaps smell is not easily affected (影響) by our imagination. For example, close your eyes and imagine your favorite dish. What do you get? It is easy to think about what it looks like. But it is not as easy to imagine its smell.

Vision and auditory is a complex (復雜的) process inside the brain. But smell is a direct measurement (衡量) of the chemicals in the air. There is ______ imagination involved in smell. Therefore, smell might not be much affected by the brain activity during dreaming.

Be c【1】. Sometimes, you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry doesn’t do any good. Neither can a fight. I【2】, it may bring you more problems. In the school, everyone involved in a fight will be punished, no matter who started it. There are no w【3】 in a fight.

Shout loudly. If you know someone is coming up behind you to a【4】, turn toward the person with your hands up in front of your body and loudly say “stop” before walking away.

Learn to r【6】. Your friend may ask you to join in a fight. Learn to say no. Helping him fight is not really helpful to him. If you really want to give him a hand, try to ask him to give it up.
