I told her that I'd like to buy flowers fbr someone else, and she could decide who to give them to. She looked a little confused （困惑的），so I suggested perhaps she should give them to someone who looked a little sad. That was because he or she might need some cheering up.At first, the girl answered, "That's crazy." But then I explained a little more about the idea of doing something kind for a stranger, and she understood. 'TH never know how it turns out,“ I said. "But you will have the opportunity to make someone have a good day." At that time, she started to seem excited about it.She went to take the flowers out of the water they were sitting in, and I explained, "It's fine to leave them there until the person you want to cheer up comes.”At that point, I think she was between surprised and happy because it might be her first time to meet a customer like me.

You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.If you curl up （蜷缩）in a ball when you sleep, you are not alone. Over half of people in the study curl up into the position when they hit the sheets. They have a low opinion of themselves and often protect themselves from being hurt. They're shy and they don't usually like meeting people. They like to be on their own.Do you sleep straight, with arms at your sides? If you sleep on your side, you know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.If people reach for the stars, with outstretched （伸展的）arms, they are yearners. They are people who get up in the morning with an excitement to get out there and chase their dreams. These are also people who go after their dreams without a real focus. They can just be time wasters.If you sleep face down on your stomach, with arms and legs all over the bed in a freefall position, it might mean that you want to control time and space in a way that you don't feel you have in your waking hours.45. .
