  Do you remember your dreams ？ Do people have the same dreams？ Why do we dream？ There are many questions about dreams . We dream during the REM（rapid eye movement ）stage of sleep . We have about five periods of REM sleep during the night . The first REM cycle lasts about 10 minutes . As the night goes on , the REM cycle gets longer . By early morning , it is in this last up to 90 minutes . Usually , it is in this last REM cycle that we remember our dreams .

Dreams change as people age . People may have several dreams each night . Some are like films and usually in colour . They come to us over and over again . That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something and trying to find the answer . Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream . But often we can’t remember the dreams clearly .

It is reported that too much dreaming is bad for our health . The more we sleep , the longer we dream . The mind is hard at work .That is why we may have a long sleep and still feel tired when we wake up .

Mozart was born in Salzburg on Jan 27 ,1756 . His full name is too long for us to remember . When he was a little boy he was called Wolferl .

   Young Mozart always had new tunes ( 曲调 )  playing in his head . When he had no one to play with , he would sit down at a table and write down all the tunes .

   When his sister Nannerl was seven and Wolferl was three , papa started teaching her to play the piano . Little Wolferl could not stay away ! He loved hearing her play . He would sit on the floor , playing with his toys while she practiced her music .

   They could hardly keep him away from the piano . After her lessons ,he would come up to the piano ,stand on his toes ,reach up with his little fingers and gently ( 轻轻的  ) touch the keys .
