If you put your history notes under your pillow (枕头) and sleep on them the night before an exam, will you do any better on the test? Most of us have hoped this might help. However, _______ can’t go through the pillow into your brain. But that doesn’t mean you can't learn while you sleep.
Scientists aren’t exactly sure how it works, but they have discovered that the brain can learn things during sleeping hours.
In one experiment(实验), researchers gave German speakers some Dutch words to learn. Then, they divided them into three groups. The researchers played Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they slept, without telling these German speakers what they were doing. The sound was low so it didn't wake them up, and only the newly introduced words were used.
Another group listened to the same words while they were awake. The researchers found the people in Group 1 were better able to identify(确认) and translate the words later. This was true only for the words that were played while they slept. The third group listened to words while they walked. The walkers did not have the same success remembering the words as the sleeping group.
The researchers later found that people had more slow-wave(慢波的) brain activity throughout the night. They said that more slow waves made people have better memory for the new words.

My husband Jack and I went to visit a friend in hospital last week. Suddenly, Jack’s mobile phone rang, it was my mother calling from my home. She asked if I had lost my phone. I checked my bag. It was gone!
I used Jack’s phone to call my number. A boy answered it. “I found your phone in the mall!” he said, excitedly. “I’m Rhys. I have been trying to find you, but because it was getting late, I decided to leave.” He gave me the address of a coffee shop near his home.
Later that evening, I went to meet him there. I was afraid to go alone, worrying he was a cheater(骗子). So Jack came along. After driving 10km, we got to the coffee shop.
As soon as I saw him, my worries were gone. Rhys was just a young boy. “How did you tell
my mum?” I asked. He explained that when he found my phone by the roadside, he started calling people in my contacts list(通讯录), starting with the letter A. He called Adam, one of my friends and Adam called my house.
I was happy to get my phone back with all the phone numbers, messages and photos in it. I thanked Rhys and offered him some money, but he refused. He’s really an honest boy.
