 Ever wished you could decide what to dream at night? A Japanese
toymaker says it has a new gadget that can help you do just that.

Tokyo-based Takara Company says that its “Dream Workshop”

stand- - shaped like an oversized cellular phone dock and about 14 inches
tall- - can be programmed to help sleepers choose what to dream.
 While preparing for bed, the user mounts a photograph on the
device of who should appear in the dream, selects music appropriate
to the mood- - fantasy, comedy, romantic story, nostalgia- - and
records key word prompts, such as the name of a romantic crush.

Placed near the bedside, the dream-maker emits a special white

light, relaxing music and a fragrance to help the person nod off.
 Several hours later, it plays back the recorded word prompts,
timed to coincide with the part of the sleep cycle when dreams most
often occur. It then helps coax the sleeper gently out of sleep with
more light and music so that the dreams are not forgotten.
 The device targets sleep-deprived businessmen, a company official
said. “There are many businessmen today who say they don’t sleep
because they are too busy. This gadget can be used to help them
dream a good dream,” said Takara spokeswoman Mayuko Hasumi.
 In a study conducted on a group of men and women
between the ages of 20 – 40, the device had a success rate of
22 percent in inducing dreams in which one of the prompt
words appeared.
What is the main idea of this passage?
1.  To report success in controlling a human’s mind.
2.  To show how a new gadget helps us select our dreams.
3.  To reveal that technology can help solve the business dilemma.
4.  To point out that technology can do anything beyond
imagination
What is the most suitable headline for this article?
1.  No More Insomnia
2.  The Dream-Maker Device
3.  The Wonder of Technology
4.  Technology Can Serve All Our Needs

 According to reports in China Business News, prices in
Jinxiang, China’s garlic-growing capital, have seen a fortyfold increase
since March. Further down the supply chain, garlic prices have jumped
tenfold on wholesale markets in big cities and fourfold nationwide.
That compares with a meager doubling in the price of copper this year
and a 77% increase in the Shanghai stock market.
 Yet, there is some justification for the increases. The amount of
land set aside for garlic-planting is said to have fallen by half in 2008 in
response to low prices. Rumors abound that garlic may prevent swine flu.
Cheap herbal remedies are popular in China, and ways to ward off disease
are compelling in the absence of comprehensive health care.
