Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a person’s character.【2】 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.

The second theory to become popular was Carl Jung’s compensation theory Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer.【3】 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.

【2】語義理解題。由He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life. 可知這里意思是首先，是Sigmund Freud的理論，選G。

【3】語義理解題。由Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes. 可知這里意思是夢會彌補(bǔ)醒來的生活中欠缺的東西，選A。

【4】語義理解題。由Until they reach age five, they cannot express very well what their dreams are about.可知孩子做夢不像成人那么多，選E。

關(guān)于七選五的做題步驟：

1、通讀全文，對文章進(jìn)行快速瀏覽，尋找主題句，抓住文章結(jié)構(gòu)及文章的寫作內(nèi)容。在閱讀過程中，要注意文章的開始與結(jié)束段落，尤其是文章的首段及末段末句，因?yàn)椤伴_門見山”與“結(jié)尾總結(jié)”的寫作方式為常見的寫作方式，首段的末句一般是是全文的主題所在，說明本文將探討哪些內(nèi)容，并簡要指出文章的寫作思路，有時(shí)甚至?xí)�以提綱的形式進(jìn)行呈現(xiàn)。首段的末句對于快速掌握文章的主題有重要意義。

2、詳讀段落，在短時(shí)間內(nèi)，找出每段寫作內(nèi)容的關(guān)鍵詞。明確各段的主題句或主旨大意。文章正文部分通常分為若干小段落。各段落會根據(jù)整體文章寫作主題展開，對文章主體進(jìn)行的不同方面的描述。找出各個(gè)小段落中的關(guān)鍵詞，明確其描述內(nèi)容，為整體試題的解決做好鋪墊。閱讀各個(gè)空的前后句，標(biāo)記關(guān)鍵詞，關(guān)鍵詞包括句中的核心名詞或名詞詞組（如帶有形容詞的名詞詞組）、專有名詞、時(shí)間數(shù)字、代詞、連詞等。重點(diǎn)閱讀各個(gè)問題附近的句子，圈定線索詞，然后從選項(xiàng)中尋找相關(guān)的特征詞，以確定答案。做題時(shí)可以采用代入排除法。如果一題做不出或拿不準(zhǔn)，可先放過，繼續(xù)往下讀，先做容易的能做出的題，直到讀完整篇文章。至此，文章的要點(diǎn)和主旨

3、定位選項(xiàng)，明確各備選選項(xiàng)的含義，抓住其關(guān)鍵詞語，根據(jù)文章整體結(jié)構(gòu)與具體內(nèi)容，將選項(xiàng)填入文中，填寫時(shí)尤為注意各選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的句子銜接手段及句中的銜接標(biāo)志詞。在定位選項(xiàng)時(shí)，要特別注意空格上下段的寫作內(nèi)容，以及空格上段尾句和下段首句的結(jié)構(gòu)和意義。將所選項(xiàng)放入空白處，看看是否與上下文構(gòu)成語義及邏輯上的直接關(guān)系，是否符合該處語境。能否承接前后的寫作線索。使文章無論內(nèi)容還是銜接上都能做到通順。

4、通讀復(fù)檢，將所選答案代入文中，再次通讀全文，重點(diǎn)考查邏輯關(guān)系和關(guān)聯(lián)結(jié)構(gòu)。

在完成選項(xiàng)定位后，應(yīng)通讀全文，檢查文章內(nèi)容是否完整，語義是否連貫合理、各段落內(nèi)容是否緊扣主題，語篇結(jié)構(gòu)是否通順連貫、具有一致性、合乎邏輯，寫作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用語是否恰當(dāng)貼切，從而判斷選擇的答案是否正確。同時(shí)，我們還應(yīng)注意對相近選項(xiàng)的對比分析，個(gè)別干擾項(xiàng)由于與某個(gè)正確選項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容相近具有很強(qiáng)的干擾性，這時(shí)就需要我們認(rèn)真分析，排除干擾，從而得出正確選項(xiàng)。

5、確定排除，研究多余選項(xiàng)，確定排除理由，最終確定答案。
