问题     Oh! I have just had such a lovely dream! and then I woke, and all the dream went out like kettle-steam or chimney-smoke. My dream was all about — how funny, though! I’ve only just dreamed it, and now it has begun to blow away like dust.
   In it I went  no! In my dream I had — No, that’s not it! I can’t remember, oh, it is too bad, My dream a bit. But l saw something beautiful, I’m sure — Then someone spoke, and then l didn’t see it any more, Because l woke.
   What do we do every night, whether we know it or not? We dream. Researchers have found that we dream about the same amount on nights that we remember our dreams as on the nights that we don’t. The amount of time we sleep is broken into cycles and states. There are two states of sleep:
   The first state, is called NREM, or non-rapid eye movement. It consists of four stages: Stage 1 is when we feel relaxed and sleepy. Stage 2 is when we move into a light sleep. We don’t dream in these two stages. Stages 3 and 4 are called slow-wave sleep. In these stages, we are in a deep sleep and the dreams we have are ones we don’t usually remember.
   The second state is called REM, or rapid eye movement. This is when we dream the most and have the dreams we remember the most. For many people, their REM dreams are the most meaningful and visually exciting. Approximately three-fourths of our total sleep time is spent in the NREM state and one-fourth in the REM state. We sleep by cycling through these states. Throughout the night, we experience four to six NREM/REM cycles.
The poet compares her dream to kettle-steam because ______.
选项 A、kettle-steam is hot and noisy, like her dream
B、people tend to drink tea in the evening to help them dream
C、kettle-steam is hard to hold on to, like her dream
D、the whistle from the kettle woke her from her dream
答案C
解析 推理判断题。该比喻处于诗的第三行：And all the dream went out like kettle-steam。由于like kettle-steam修饰的是谓语动词went out(消失)，且后文论述的又是醒后不记得梦的内容，故选[C]。
