问题     Let us begin by saying what does not cause our dreams. Our dreams do not come from "another world". They are not messages from some outside source. They are not a look into the future, either.
    All our dreams have something to do with our emotions, fears, longings, wishes, needs and memories. But something on the "outside" may affect what we dream.  If a person is hungry, or tired, or cold, his dreams may include a feeling of this kind. If the covers on your body, such as a quilt or a blanket, have slipped off your bed, you may dream that you are sleeping or resting on the ice and snow. The material for the dream you will have tonight is likely to come from the experiences you have today.
    So the subject of your dream usually comes from something that has influence on you while you are sleeping ( feeling of cold, a noise, a discomfort, etc. ) and it may also use your past experience and the wishes and interests you have now. This is why very young children are likely to dream of fairies, older children of school examinations, hungry people of food, homesick soldiers of their families, and prisoners of freedom~ To show you how that is taking place while you are asleep and how your wishes or needs can all be joined together in a dream, here is the story of an experiment. A man was asleep and the back of his hand was rubbed with a piece of absorbent cotton( 脱脂棉). He would dream that he was in a hospital and his charming girl friend was visiting him, sitting on the bed and feeling his hand gently!
    There are some scientists who have made a special study of why we dream, what we dream and what those dreams mean. Their explanation of dreams, though a bit reasonable, is not accepted by everyone, but it offers an interesting approach to the problem. They believe that dreams are mostly expressions of wishes that did not come true. In other words, a dream is a way of having your wishes carried out.
Which of the following statements is supported by the author?
选项 A、When a person feels hungry, he may dream of fine food and drinks.
B、People already know the direct cause of dreams.
C、From the content of the dreams we may know people’s wishes.
D、Some of the wishes can be realized in people’s dreams.
答案C
解析 推理判断题。从文末可知，梦表达了人们无法实现的愿望，换句话说，从梦的内容我们可以得知人的愿望，由此可推断出作者支持C项的观点。
