The Stranger on the Bridge
The big Town Hall clock was striking midnight when Frank began to
cross the bridge. The night air was cold and damp. A low mist hung over
the river and the street-lamps gave little light.
Frank was anxious to get home and his footsteps rang loudly on the
pavement. When he reached the middle of the bridge he thought he
could hear someone approaching behind him. He looked back but could
see no one. However, the sound continued and Frank began walking
more quickly. Then he slowed down again, ashamed of himself for
acting so foolishly. There was nothing to fear in a town as quiet as
this.
The short, quick steps grew louder until they seemed very near. Frank
found it impossible not to turn round. As he did so, he caught sight of a
figure coming towards him.
After reaching the other side of the bridge, Frank stopped and
pretended to look down at the water. From the corner of his eye he could
now make out the form of a man dressed in a large overcoat. A hat was
pulled down over his eyes and very little of his face could be seen.
As the man came near, Frank turned towards him and said something
about the weather in an effort to be friendly. The man did not answer
but asked gruffly where Oakfield House was. Frank pointed to a big
house in the distance and the stranger continued his way.

The inquiry made Frank suspicious because he knew that the inhabitants
of Oakfield House were very wealthy. Almost without realizing
what he was doing, he began following the stranger quietly. The man
was soon outside the house and Frank saw him look up at the windows. A
light was still on and the man waited until it went out. When about half
an hour had passed, Frank saw him climb noiselessly over the wall and
heard him drop on to the ground at the other side.
Now Frank's worst suspicions were confirmed. He walked quickly and
silently across the street towards a telephone-box on the corner.

Read the two conclusions to Cinderella.

Conclusion A: “This is not the true bride,” said he to the father; “have you no other daughters?”

Then Cinderella took her shoe off, and put on the golden slipper, and it fitted as if it had been made for her. And when he drew near the prince knew her, and said, “This is the right bride.”

Then he took Cinderella on his horse and rode away.

Conclusion B: The Prince was overjoyed to find her again; and they were married at once with much pomp amid great rejoicings.

As for the wicked sisters they were so jealous that they both turned green with envy. They grew uglier and uglier every day, until at last they grew so dreadfully ugly that nobody could bear to look at them any longer. But Cinderella became more and more beautiful, and lived happily with the Prince for ever afterwards.

Which conclusion to Cinderella is stronger? Why?

Conclusion A is stronger because the conflict between the characters is resolved.
Conclusion B is stronger because it describes the prince's feeling toward Cinderella.
Conclusion A is stronger because it contains an emotional moment in which Cinderella learns something.
Conclusion B is stronger because vivid details are used to show that the characters got what they deserved.

Read the text about dreams. Then mark statements 1–6 true or false according to the text.



Can you remember a time when you woke up from a fantastic, scary or strange dream? Maybe you were scared and had to turn on the light or the dream was so good you wanted to stay in it longer. Probably, in either case, you forgot most of the details before breakfast. But are dreams just dreams or are they trying to tell you something?



DO DREAMS PREDICT THE FUTURE?

For hundreds of years, people have thought gods or spirits communicate with us through our dreams. Even today, many people can remember a time when they saw an event, place or person in their dream and then, later, the dream came true in real life. But it’s probably just a coincidence when a dream event is followed by a real-life event that’s similar to it, especially if the subject of the dream is something that happens often in everyday life. Most people have four to six dreams every night after the age of ten. That’s as many as 2,000 dreams per year. So, by the time they reach 80 years old the average person might have had 140,000 dreams. Even if we forget 95–99 percent of our dreams, we will still remember a few thousand of them. And, of course, we probably choose to forget the thousands of times we dream about events, but they don’t happen.



ARE DREAMS JUST RECYCLED THOUGHTS?

Around the 18th and 19th centuries two main ideas about dreams became popular. One was the idea that the things we see in our dreams are things our conscious mind is hiding from us. However, the opposite idea said that while we’re asleep, the brain organises memories and events from the day. Dreams are just a random collection of these thoughts, but we try to make a story from them when we wake up.



ARE DREAMS MESSAGES FROM OUR BRAINS?

But perhaps the truth about dreams lies somewhere in the middle of these two ideas. Dreams might be made from the thoughts we have during the day, but they appear in dreams with symbolic meaning. When we’re awake, we mostly think in words, like we’re having conversations with ourselves. But when we’re asleep, the part of our brain that controls language becomes less active, while the part that controls feelings becomes more active. So, maybe we experience our thoughts as feelings and symbols instead of words with clear meanings.

So, if you can understand the symbols in your dreams, you have a window into your subconscious. Common dreams like being able to fly or falling, or having no clothes on in a public place, probably mean something similar in most people. But to understand exactly what they mean to you, you have to connect them to the events and feelings of your daily life.



HOW CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THE MESSAGES?

One way to help you do this is to keep a dream diary. As soon as you wake up, write down whatever you can remember about your dreams. Use pen and paper, not your phone or computer as the light might wake you up and you’ll forget faster. Be quick, as the memories will be gone in seconds. Some days you’ll write with your eyes not even fully open and the result will be almost impossible to read, or it might not even make sense.

Now you can connect your dreams to the events and feelings in your daily life. Think about the people and place where the dream happened as they might have a meaning too. How were you feeling in the dream? That dream about having no clothes on in public might mean you are anxious about something you have to do, or you’re not feeling confident in a certain situation or with certain people.



CAN YOU CONTROL YOUR DREAMS?

Some people think writing your dreams down can open your mind to lucid dreaming. In lucid dreams, you know you’re dreaming and you can change your own plot. Instead of just working out the meaning of your dreams, you’ll be creating them. That could be a lot of fun, but you might want to continue having some dreams that allow your subconscious to send you messages!
