Do you and your friends ever talk about your dreams with each other? If you do, you might have noticed something interesting – some of your friends seldom remember their dreams, but some can always describe their dreams so clearly that it seems like they’re describing things that really happened to them. What makes those people different?

The answer is simple. There are two different types of dreamers – low dream recallers（回憶者）and high dream recallers.

Low dream recallers usually remember their dreams only twice a month. But high dream recallers are able to remember them about five mornings a week. And a new study suggests that activity in a certain part of the brain could have something to do with it, reported The Huffington Post.

Perrine Ruby, a French researcher at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center, studied 41 people (21 high dream recallers and 20 low dream recallers) and recorded their brain activity.

She found that a part of the brain called the temporo-parietal junction (顳頂聯(lián)合區(qū)) was more active in high dream recallers than in low dream recallers – both when they were sleeping and awake.

This brain area collects and processes（編程）information from the outside world. This means that high dream recallers know more about what’s happening around them. For example, when they are awake, they respond (對(duì)……有反應(yīng)) more strongly to hearing their own names, and when they are sleeping, they are woken more easily by sounds and movements.

By closely studying people’s brain activities, Ruby found that high dream recallers have twice as much “wakefulness time” during sleep as low dream recallers do. And it is during these short times of wakefulness that the brain remembers dreams.

“The sleeping brain is not able to remember new information,” Ruby told The Washington Post. “It needs to wake up to be able to do that.”

This is not hard to understand. Just try to think of your own sleeping experiences. If you are worried during the night, you are more likely to remember your dreams, but if you sleep well, you will remember little in the morning, and this is because “you never get a chance to remember”, Robert Stickgold, a Harvard Medical School researcher, told The Washington Post.

One day, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival. When they arrived, there were already many adults and their children playing in the park.

The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, 【6】 helping it stay in the sky, because the kite 【7】 can' t fly up. By using the string you help the kite go up in the right 【8】. When you cut the string, it could not support the kite.
