Yet many people do not seem to know that memory（记忆力）works in the same way . When someone says that he has a good memory , he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it . When someone else says that his memory is poor , he really means that he does not give it enough chance（机会）to become strong . If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak , we know that is his own fault（过错）. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory , many of us think that his parents are to blame（受责备）, and few of us know that it is just his own fault . Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories ? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things ; they cannot write down in a little notebook . They have to remember days , names , songs and stories ; so their memory is the whole time being exercised . So if you want to have a good memory , learn from the people : practice remembering .57.

If you do not use your arms or legs for some time , _ .A. you cant use them any moreB. they will become strongerC. they become weak and wont become strong until you use them againD. you will feel ill59. Which of the following is NOT true ?A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs .B. Your memory , like your arms or legs , becomes weak if you dont give it enough chance for practice .C. Dont learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory .D. A good memory comes from more practice .60. Some people cant read or write , but they usually have better memories , because _ .A. they have save much troubleB. they have saved much time to remember thingsC. they have to use their memories all the timeD. they cant write everything in a little notebook61. Give a best title（标题）for this passage : _A. Dont Stop Using Your Arms or Legs .B. How To Have a Good Memory .C. Strong Arms and Good Memory .D. Learn from the PeopleCNobody can tell exactly when people first began to use salt , but we know that salt has been used in many different ways . People began to eat salted fish over 3,000 years ago . In Egypt , salt was used to keep dead bodies from rotting away（腐烂）.Stealing salt was a serious crime（罪）at different times . In the 18th century , if a person stole salt , he would be put into prison（监狱）. Around 400 years earlier , in the year 1553 , one taking more salt than he was given would have his ear cut off .Salt was an important item on the table in the palace ; It was put in front of the king when he sat down to eat . Important guests at the kings table were invited to sit near the salt and less important guests were given seats farther away from the salt .Guards（侍卫）were sent to protect（保卫）the salt from being stolen . The guards got their pay in salt . Any guard who fell asleep while on duty was said to be “ not worth his salt ” and he would get less salt . This expression is still used today in English .62.
