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 every night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in color. 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 are thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can appear in dreams.
Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But we often 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. That is why we may have a long sleep but still feel tired.

When I take a walk around the park, I often see many people walking with dogs. Perhaps a dog is one of the most useful animals in the world. People keep dogs for different reasons. In the past many people kept dogs mainly for their safety. But now more and more people keep dogs as their friends. For a child, a dog is his friend when he has no other children to play with. For young people, a dog is their friend when they are alone at home. For old people, a dog is their child when their own children grow up and leave home. Now you can see the reasons why people keep dogs.
