much easier if we could remember them all effortlessly So how can we improve our memory Many people think that repeating things is the best way to remember them While this undoubtedly helps short term memory remembering a telephone number for a few seconds for example psychologists 心理学家 doubt whether it ca help you to remember things for very long The British psychologist Ec Stanford seemed to prove this point when he tested himself on five prayers 祈祷文 that he had read aloud every morning for over 25 years He found that he could remember no more than three words of some of them More helpful especially for remembering numbers is grouping the information The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember 1492178919931848 But look at them in chunks and it becomes much easier 1492 1789 1993 1848 So what about memory training We ve all heard about people who can memorize packs of cards by heart how is this done and can anyone learn how to do it According to experts there are many ways of training your memory Many of them involve forming a mental picture of the things to be memorized One method which may be useful in learning foreign languages is to create a picture in your mind connected to a word you want to remember Another method is to invent a story that includes all the things you want to remember In experiments people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this skill when tested afterwards on average they were able to recall 90 of them However not all of us are interested in learning long lists of names and numbers just for fun For those studying large number of information psychologists suggest that the best way to form meaningful connections is to ask yourself lots of questions as you go along So for example if you were reading about a particular disease 疾病 you would ask yourself questions like Do people get it from water What parts of the body does it influence and so on This is said to be far more effective than time spent passively reading and re reading notes 1 Which of the following is true about repeating things according to the passage 第 12 页 共 22 页 A It helps short term memory for sure B It makes remembering things interesting C It helps to remember things for long D It makes remembering prayers effortlessly 2 The word chunks in Paragraph 2 probably means A details B turns C groups D lines 3 What can we infer from the passage A Creating a picture is useful in learning math B Inventing a prayer trains our memory quickly C Remembering long numbers is easy for people D Asking yourself questions activates the memory 4 What s the writer s main purpose in writing this passage A To complain that his memory is bad B To recognize some memory problems C To explain some memory experiments D To share some ways of improving memory 23 8 分 阅读下列短文 从下面每小题的 A B C D 四个选项中选出最佳选项 Shaking the head doesn t always mean the same in different countries Maybe some visitors would be surprised when they first come
