Before the final examination, Tom told his mother, "Mom, I had a dream last night that I'd passed today's exam.""Don't trust dreams, dear. It is said what you experience in dreams usually turns out to be the opposite." Mother replied."Then I do hope I'll fail the other subjects in my dream tonight," Tom said.

　　在期末考試之前，湯姆告訴他的母親：“媽媽，我昨天晚上做了一個(gè)夢，夢見我通過了今天的考試。”“不要相信夢，親愛的。據(jù)說夢中的經(jīng)歷通常與現(xiàn)實(shí)相反。”媽媽答道。“那么，我真希望在今晚的夢中，我的其他功課都不及格。”湯姆說。
