Studies have shown that sleeping and learning go hand in hand.Even a short nap can boost our memory and sharpen our thinking.But the relationship goes deeper than that. \” scientist Anat Arzi said.“It's quite active.You can do many things while you are asleep.\

Arzi and her coworkers didn’t try to teach the sleeping volunteers any complex information, like new words or facts.Instead, the scientists taught volunteers to make new connections between smells and sounds.

Once the volunteers fell asleep in the lab, the scientists went to work.They gave the volunteers a whiff of some thing pleasant and at the same time played a particular musical note.The volunteers didn't wake up, but they did hear-and sniff deeply.Then the scientists gave the volunteers a whiff of something terrible and played a different musical note.Again, the volunteers heard and smelled-a short snort this time-but didn't wake up.The researchers repeated the experiment while the volunteers slept.

After just four repetitions, volunteers made a connection between the musical notes and their paired smells.When the scientists played the musical tone that went with good smells, The sleepers breathed deeply-even though there was no good smell.And when the scientists played the musical tone that went with bad smells, the sleepers breathed briefly-despite there being no bad smell.

In many American cities, one can find beautifully restored movie houses from the Golden Age of Motion Pictures in the 1920s and 1930s.And many of them are decorated in classical styles.

There’s a beautifully restored theater in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but it has such a different look that throughout New Mexico you can find people who share a vivid memory of being scared out of their skulls(头盖骨)there-and not by the movie that was showing.

In the early 1900s,a local businessman named Oreste Bachechi was making a fortune by selling wine, some of it to the movie stars whose cross-country trains stopped to refuel outside of Albuquerque.He fell in love with films and decided to build the city's first movie palace.And he wanted something different-something that would reflect the unique influence of New Mexico’s Native American culture.So he built a movie house filled with Indian rugs, light fixtures shaped like war drums, and walls decorated with thunderbirds and backward swastikas-American Indian symbols of happiness, life, and freedom.
