Section C - Comprehension
When you go to sleep at night, you probably think that you are not doing much. Your body
is in one place, your eyes are closed, and you don’t talk to people. But your body is doing
more than you think it is! Scientists have used special, sophisticated machines to study the
way people sleep.
They have found that your brain is actually very busy when you sleep.
There are several stages of sleep in a sleep cycle. You go through the sleep cycle multiple
times each night. Your brain’s activity level is a little different in each stage. The final stage
of the cycle is called rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. During REM, your eyes are moving
even though you are asleep. That is how this stage got its name. Most of your dreams
occur during REM sleep.
