Flex your memory muscles

    You'll remember more if you use your body and your brain, says our memory expert, Jonathan Hancock. Muscle memory is a powerful thing., our bodies operate instinctively (本能地),following long-formed, well-practised routines.

    Today, for example, I decided to go home a different way from my morning run. I spotted the new road I wanted to take, headed towards it ...and before I knew it, I was back at my front door — having gone exactly the same way I always did! I'll try again to take the scenic route next time. But muscle memory is actually a useful tool, and it can have a positive impact on your learning. .

    If you're learning your part in a play, or preparing to give a speech from memory, repeat the same actions whenever you run through lines. You can even add extra movement instructions to your script(脚本),to make sure that you do the same things each time. .

    To remember a tough spelling, try writing it out by hand. , your muscle memory may well help you. Feel your way to forming the right pattern of letters again.

    ,connect it to a physical action that's already hard to change. For example, if you always reach for the coffee jar first thing in the morning, why not use that movement to remind you of something else — like the tablet you need to take at the same time every day?

A. When you've got a regular "to do" task

B. Without our conscious minds having much say

C. If you've used this word — or one like it ——in the past

D. You can write again when you've really got something to remember

E. Here are some suggestions for using muscle memory to your advantage

F. These movements will become effective reminders for the words that go along with them

G. My exercises can increase strength in certain parts of my body and improve muscle memory
