to take an active role. like your body, your memory can be made strong through exercise. look for opportunities(机会)to exercise your memory. for example，if youre learning a language，try to actively remember a lot of new words. if you dont take notice of things actively，you wont remember them. so, you can make pictures of what you see in your mind every day. for example，dont just put your keys down! if you want to find them again，make a mind picture of the place where youre putting them. 30. the first two paragraphs just tell us . a. barbara was a very rich person b. mark often forgot his
