When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window. I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute ”, answered a weak, elderly voice. After a long

12、 pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase. I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car. She kept thanking me for my kindness. “Its nothing,” I told her. “I just

15、niture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl. Sometimes shed ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing. At dawn, she suddenly said,” Im tired.

19、ld learn to appreciate others concern. C C Most people forget what theyve just learned within 12 or 24 hours. If you are reading this post now, chances are that tomorrow youll not even remember it. Our brain works like a big search engine. When you insert a new piece of information, it goes to a big

20、 stack called short-term memory. When you want to remember that information, your brain will try to search inside that stack for the information you requested. Thats why you often remember a title of a song after many hours from your first attempt. If you are trying to recall something after a long

21、time (it can be even one hour for useless information), your brain will have a hard time finding it, as its more likely that you have forgotten it.

22、ored as unstable information, because your brain doesnt know whether its useful or not. For example, you dont need to remember every car youve seen in your daily commute（通勤） to work.

23、ll you now to find the sum of the number from 1 to n, you have to calculate (n+1) n/2, chances are that within one hour itll be already hard for you to recall the correct formula (公式), although its pretty easy. This happens because (if you are not good at math) your brain does not find similar infor

24、mation already stored in your brain, so its hard for it to strengthen that information alone. And by now youve probably forgotten it. As youve just read, the major difficulty for your brain is to strengthen and create consistency and the best way to help your brain do it is by recalling what youve j

25、ust learned many times. 8. Why do most people forget what they have just learned in one day? A. Because short-term memory plays the main role in remembering newly learned thing B.
