A: 你在干什么呢？ B: 在看杂志，《心理学》。

A: 哦，学点心理学知识肯定很有趣吧？

B: 是啊。在我们的日常生活中，心理学运用十分广泛。 A: 比如？

B: 比如说，人们看到衣服降价就想买；病人吃了安慰剂后就感觉好多了…… A: 等等，我看这和心理学没什么关系嘛。

B: 当然有了。人们看到便宜的衣服就想买，这是因为他们觉得自己有一种强烈的心理需求必须得到满足；病人的病情好转是由于他们不断告诉自己会好些，最终他们的这种愿望成真。

A: 原来是这样。那么，和朋友交谈、听快节奏的音乐，心理学在这些方面也起作用吗？

B: 没错。和朋友交谈能让人放松，听快节奏的音乐可以使人充满活力。根据心理学，这些都是让人远离压力和情绪沮丧的好方法。 A: What are you doing?

B: I'm reading a magazine, Psychology.

A: Well, it must be fun to learn something about psychology.

B: You bet. Psychology has broad applications in our daily life. A: For example?

B: For example, people can't resist the temptation to buy clothes on sale; patients feel much better after they've taken some placebos. A: Wait, I don't think it has anything to do with psychology.

B: It certainly does. People can't help buying clothes on sale because they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. Patients feel much better because they constantly tell themselves that they will get better, and their strong will makes the wish become reality.

A: Oh, I see. Does psychology also play a role in such cases as talking with friends and listening to fast music?

B: Yes. Talking with friends can be relaxing, and listening to fast music can make people energetic or dynamic. According to psychology, these are good ways of keeping a distance from depression and pressure.

Dreams Are Soul Talks

As a species, we have yet to unlock the key to our dream worlds. Despite the fact that so many of us see the value in dreaming and wish to be conscious of our activities in the dream dimensions, most of us still feel that we enter some sort of fantasy land when we sleep. While some believe our dream life is as real as waking life and actively seek ways of controlling what occurs while they sleep, few actually make the connection between what happens in waking life and what occurs in sleep.

In the 1990s, it was widely acknowledged by both psychologists and parapsychologists that our dreams contain the content of our daily lives. Therefore, learning to remember and to \process. Many important scientific discoveries can be rooted in events that occurred in the dream world.

梦是心灵的谈话

我们人类至今尚未开启通往梦的世界的大门。尽管我们很多人都意识到了做梦的价值，希望了解我们在梦境中的活动，但大多数人仍觉得人在睡眠中就像进入梦幻世界一样。有些人认为梦中的生活跟醒着的生活一样真实，而且在积极寻找方法控制睡眠时的思维活动，然而很少有人会将清醒时发生的事情跟梦中发生的事情联系在一起。

心理学家和心理玄学家在20世纪90年代普遍认为，我们的梦境包含着日常生活的内容。因此，学习去记忆并“挖掘”我们的梦是非常有用的。许多重要的科学发现就来源于梦境中发生的事件。
