江西省鹰潭市2024年中考一模英语试题
You're chatting with a friend and want to suggest a good book. All of a sudden, you can't remember the title! The harder you try to remember, . the more it eludes (使不记得) you. We've all been there, and everyone knows how hard it is to remember all the information in your head.
● Repeat important information out loud. When you repeat something out loud, you aren't technically memorizing it. You're actually creating a pattern (方式) and sound that will make the information easier to remember in the future.
● Turn the TV off while you study and put down the phone while you're driving. When you do different activities at the same time, your attention is divided, which will make it hard to process (处理) the information necessary to remember what you're doing.
● Take notes and write things down. Taking notes will help you memorize the information, even if you never look at your notes again! So you'd better use pens and paper if you really want to remember your friend's birthday or an important meeting.
● Take a short walk. Studies show that taking a walk will increase your memory. If you're trying to remember something, spend a few minutes walking around your neighborhood to see if it helps. At best, you'll remember the name of that life-changing book from primary school!
A. Pay attention to one thing at a time. B. Remember to find a good neighborhood. C. Never watch TV or use mobile phone too much. D. At worst, you'll get some exercise and relax a little. E. Say that address, phone number, or date over and over again. F. Luckily, there are some things you can do to improve your memory. G. Research shows that it's hard to achieve the same result by writing on your phone. |
