雙語：你所不知的關(guān)于夢境的15個事實

 1. You Forget 90% of Your Dreams

（九成的夢你都不記得）Within 5 minutes of waking half of your dream is forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone.

2. Blind People also Dream

（盲人也會做夢）People who became blind after birth can see images in their dreams. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion.

3. Everybody Dreams

(每個人都會做夢。除了極為嚴重的心理疾病患者，每個人都會做夢。如果你覺得你不會做夢，那也只是你起床后忘記了而已)Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder). If you think you are not dreaming – you just forget your dreams.

4. In Our Dreams We Only See Faces That We already Know

（我們在夢里只會看到我們所知道的事實）Our mind is not inventing faces – in our dreams we see real faces of real people that we have seen during our life but may not know or remember. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces throughout our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.

5. Not Everybody Dreams in Color

（不是每個人的夢都是彩色的。有12％的人（非盲人）的夢境只會是黑白的，剩余的88％的夢境則是彩色的）A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. Studies from 1915 through to the 1950s maintained that the majority of dreams were in black and white, but these results began to change in the 1960s. Today only 4.4% of the dreams of under-25 year-olds are in black and white. Recent research has suggested that those changing results may be linked to the switch from black-and-white film and TV to color media.

6. Dreams are Symbolic

（夢是有象征意義的）If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. Whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.

7. Emotions

（情緒。在夢里最常出現(xiàn)的情緒是焦急。夢中的負面情緒比正面情緒多。）The most common emotion experienced in dreams is anxiety. Negative emotions are more common than positive ones.

8. You can have four to seven dreams in one night

（你一個晚上會做約四到七個夢）On average you can dream anywhere from one or two hours every night.

9. Animals Dream Too

（動物也會做夢）Studies have been done on many different animals, and they all show the same brain waves during dreaming sleep as humans. Watch a dog sleeping sometime. The paws move like they are running and they make yipping sounds as if they are chasing something in a dream.

10. Body Paralysis

（無法動彈。在快速動眼期的過程中，身體會無法動彈。這是一種保護機制，避免身體在現(xiàn)實生活中因為夢境的關(guān)系而產(chǎn)生反應(yīng)）Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a normal stage of sleep characterized by rapid movements of the eyes. REM sleep in adult humans typically occupies 20-25% of total sleep, about 90-120 minutes of a night’s sleep.

During REM sleep the body is paralyzed by a mechanism in the brain in order to prevent the movements which occur in the dream from causing the physical body to move. However, it is possible for this mechanism to be triggered before, during, or after normal sleep while the brain awakens.

11. Dream Incorporation

（受外界刺激影響。睡覺時，我們的大腦會解讀外界的刺激，然后這些內(nèi)容出現(xiàn)在夢境里面）Our mind interprets the external stimuli that our senses are bombarded with when we are asleep and make them a part of our dreams. This means that sometimes in our dreams we hear a sound from reality and incorporate it in a way. For example you may be dreaming that you are in a concert while your brother is playing a guitar during your sleep.

12. Men and Women Dream Differently

（男人和女人的夢不同。男人夢到男人的機率比較高。 在男人的夢里面，70％上場的角色都是別的男人。而女人夢境里的角色則較為平均，男女的數(shù)量比例幾乎是一半。 此外，男人的夢比女人的更具侵略性）

Men tend to dream more about other men. Around 70% of the characters in a man’s dream are other men. On the other hand, a woman’s dream contains almost an equal number of men and women. Aside from that, men generally have more aggressive emotions in their dreams than the female lot.

13. Precognitive Dreams

（預(yù)知夢。研究指出，18%到38%的人經(jīng)歷過至少一次的預(yù)知夢；而70%的人有“似曾相識”的經(jīng)歷）Results of several surveys across large population sets indicate that between 18% and 38% of people have experienced at least one precognitive dream and 70% have experienced déjà vu. The percentage of persons that believe precognitive dreaming is possible is even higher – ranging from 63% to 98%.

14. If you are snoring, then you cannot be dreaming

（打鼾的時候不會作夢。這是一個網(wǎng)路謠言，目前似乎還沒有科學(xué)根據(jù)）This fact is repeated all over the Internet, but I’m a bit suspicious whether it’s really true as I haven’t found any scientific evidence to support it.

15.You can experience an o r g asm in your dream

You can not only have s e x as pleasurable as in your real life while dreaming, but also experience an  o r g a s m  as strong as a real one without any wet results. The sensations felt while lucid dreaming (touch, pleasure and etc..) can be as pleasurable and strong (or I believe even stronger) as the sensations experienced in the real world.
