Everyone has got two personalities(性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other
that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re
awake because you can control your behavior, but when you’re asleep, your
sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people
frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go
to sleep in.
If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open
person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or
new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real
feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather
secretive(不坦率的)person. You worry a lot and you’re always
easily upset. You’re very stubborn, but you aren’t very ambitious(有雄心的). You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This
means that you enjoy having a good time.
If you sleep curled up(卷曲),
you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and
so you’re often defensive(提防的). You’re shy and you don’t normally like
meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a
well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re
usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious,
but you don’t often get depressed(压抑). You
always say what you think even if it annoys people.(words: 278)
