19、 we sleep, our brains clear out the memories we've made while we're awake, deciding what to keep and what to discard. Forgetting is an active process, explained the authors of a study published in the journal Science. But less is known about this process during the different stages of sleep.

20、The team found that during the rapid eye movement （REM） sleep stage, when active sleep happens and we are thought to dream, special nerve（神經(jīng)）cells appear to actively lead to forgetting. What are known as MCH neurons（神經(jīng)元）sit in the hypothalamus a part of the brain which helps with a range of function
