24、 the lake, we cant driveback in the dark-it gets too misty （模糊的） .We may have to spend the night there. We wereunprepared for this-no extra warm clothes, and the risk of altitude（高地） sickness made me worry. Isuggested we turn back, but the others didnt agree. So Prem stepped out hoping to get a free

26、t this time. One car with enough room passed by, but didnt stop.

27、witha sparejacket, he bent down andstarted moving hishands over the surface of my husbandsfeet.Please,Ill doit, I insisted, but hecontinued and kepton doing that for about 20 minutes until he was sure Prems feet were warm again.As we neared his home, Ali invited us to whatever simple lunch was cooke

31、tried a new sport or tried learning a musical instrument （乐 器）,you may well know that the hardest part is getting started. Once you have learned the skills, they return fairly easily, even if they are not used for long periods of time. Most experts put this down to muscle （肌肉）memory, which means the

32、 brain remembers the action and can remember it when needed. There is another thing that may be as important in recalling formerly learned sport skills-the mistakes made while learning the task.The study led by Reza Shadmehrincluded asking volunteersto play a simple video game:hitting a red targetdo

33、t (目标1点)with a slightly smaller blue dot, similar to playing virtual darts(虚拟飞镖).What the gamers did not know was that as soon as they mastered the game, the researchers moved the blue dot slightlyoff-course, so forcing them to restart the learning process. Though the volunteers did make mistakes ev

34、ery timethe game was changed, they got faster at mastering it.Reza believes that this has to do with the fact that in addition to performing the task to muscle memory, the brain is also correcting each wrong move and learning how to correct it. He compares it to having a coach that points out the mi

35、stakes and makes suggestions on how to improve.What surprised the scientists is that making mistakes not only trains the brain to do better at a certain task, but also helps it learn faster from mistakes, even when the mistakes are made while learning an entirelydifferenttask.The brainkeepsa general

36、record ofmistakesanddraws onthem whenever anew sportskillis beinglearned, to makesurethatmistakesarenot madeagain. This helps make leaning much faster and probably explains why people, who master one sport or musical instrument, are able to pick up others more easily.Making mistakes is a good thing.
