How to improve your memory

  There are many things you can do to improve your memory.Among them are various memorizing methods as well as taking special care of your health.

    1   is important that you regularly stimulate your brain to make your memory more efficient.You   2   do this by doing activities that you do not normally do and by changing your daily habits.  3   a new skill helps your brain to develop.When trying to memorize   4  , you should focus your attention because this will lower your chances of making accurate memories.

  An excellent   5   to help is to link information with pictures.These are referred to as mnemonic techniques(記憶術(shù)).Try to see the images in your mind.Taking notes, being organized and keeping a diary will   6   be useful tools.

    7   food and plenty of vitamins are essential for your memory to work properly.Drinking a lot of water also helps maintain your memory.You must allow your brain to have   8   sleep and rest.When you are asleep, your brain stores memory.Not enough sleep can, therefore, cause   9   with storing information.In addition, being tired will stop you from being able to concentrate well.Caffeine in tea and coffee are very   10   at preventing sleepiness and helping concentration,   11   they can also cause problems with memory.

  What do Napoleon, Clinton and Wang Nan have in common? They are all left-handed. Today about 15% of the number of people are left-handed. But why are people left- handed? The answer is the way the brain works. The brain has two halves --- the right half and the left half. The right half controls the left side of the body, and the left controls the right side of the body. So right-handed people have strong left brain, and left-handed people have a strong right brain.

  The two halves of the brain are about the same size. But each side controls different things. The left side controls language, maths and logic (邏輯). When you remember new words, or when you put things in order, you use your left side.

  The right side of the brain controls your love of art, colour and music. It is also good at recognizing faces. This does not mean that all artists are left-handed and all accountants (會(huì)計(jì)) are right-handed. Some right-handers have a strong right brain, and some left-handers have a strong left brain.

(1) The phrase “in common” in the first sentence means ________.

[  ]

A.the same
B.different
C.strange
D.interesting

(2) People are right-handed or left-handed is mostly decided by ________.

[  ]

A.their parents

B.their minds

C.the way the brain works

D.the way the head works

(3) Each side of the brain ________.

[  ]

A.likes music and maths

B.controls different things

C.controls the same thing

D.has two halves

(4) When you are singing you are using your ________.

[  ]

A.logic thinking
B.heart
C.right brain
D.left brain
