There is an endless supply of stories about sleepwalkers(梦游者). Persons have been said to climb on roofs, solve mathematical problems, write music, walk through windows, and do murder in their sleep.
In Revere, Massachusetts, a hundred policemen searched for a lost boy who left his home in his sleep and woke up five hours later on a strange sofa in a strange living room, with no idea how he had got there.
At the University of Iowa, a student was reported to have the habit of getting up in the middle of the night and walking three quarters of a mile to the Iowa River. He would take a swim and then go back to his room to bed.
An expert on sleep in America claims(声称)that he has never seen a sleepwalker. He is said to know more about sleep than any other man alive, and during the last thirty-five years he has lost a lot of sleep watching people sleep. He says, Of course, I know that there are sleepwalkers because I have read about them in the newspapers. But none of my sleepers ever walked, and if I were to advertise for sleepwalkers for an experiment, I doubt whether I could get many takers.
Sleepwalking, however, is a scientific reality. It is one of those strange things that sometimes look quite like the fantastic(怪诞的). Doctors say that sleepwalking is much more common than is generally supposed. Many sleepwalkers do not try to find help and are never recorded.
