Then the woman adds the principle of “Consolidation”, or reviewing ones notes after class and absorbing the new material into what one has already learned. When the man promise to study sixteen hours a day, the woman recommends the principle of “Distributed Practice”, which favors shorter study sessions distributed over several days. Finally, the woman tells the man that memory is like a muscle, and that it needs exercise.Task 2: You forget my toast!ScriptAn 80-year-old couple was having problems remembering things, so they decide to go to their doctor to see what was wrong with them. They explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple over, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might need to start writing things down to help them remember. The couple thanked the doctor and left.Later that night while watching TV, the old woman said to the old man, “Honey, will you please go to the kitchen and get me a dish of ice cream?”Before the man left, she added, “Why dont you write that down so you wont forget?” “Nonsense,” said the husband, “I can remember a dish of ice cream!”“Well,” said the wife, “Id like some strawberries on it. Youd better write that down because I know your memory is failing.”“Dont be silly,” replied the husband. “Therere only two things: a dish of ice cream and some strawberries. I can surely remember that!”With that, he rushed into the kitchen.

Some of them are introduced her.First and foremost, you need to stimulate your memory all the time. To put it simply, you should use your memory as much as possible. It is especially important to try to learn something new. If you work in an office, learn to dance; if you are a dancer, learn to deal with a computer, if you work with sales, and learn to play chess; if you are a programmer, learn to paint. These added activities stimulate the brain so that I t continues to function.Older people need to pay attention to things they are dealing with. Dont try to memorize everything that catches your attention; focus on what you consider important. For example, you can take any object such as a pen and concentrate on it. Think on its various characteristics: its material, its function, its color, and so on. Dont allow any other thought to occupy your mind while you are concentrating in that pen.Another method that can be used is to relax yourself. It is impossible to remember things if you are tense or nervous.So, try holding your breath for ten seconds, and then release it slowly.Association is also a powerful tool to develop your memory. For example, if you cannot remember a persons name, you can think about a special feature of his face and then link it with his mane.1.Whats seems to be an especially important way to stimulate ones memory?2.What seems to be the best way to focus your memory?3.How can you concentrate on a pen?4.How can you relax yourself according to the passage?5.What is the main idea of the passage?Kes: 1A 2.C3.

After class, Jenny admits that half of what the professor said went over her head, and Harrison assures her that a lot of what the professor said is explained in the reading.When Jenny asks to borrow Harrison notes, he says “on problem”, for they dont have class until Wednesday. Finally, Harrison says participation in the discussion at the seminar is an important part of the education there.Task 2: Money for CollegeScriptRobert is a university student. He likes to have fun. But having fun was expensive, so he was rapidly running out of money. There was nothing to do to try to call his mother for help. “Hi, Mom. I certainly miss you and Dad. Iuhgot a big surprise this week in my physics course. We have to buy two new textbooks. Im going to need $100.”“I understand,” said his mother, “Ill send you the money right away.

Thanks,” Robert said.Roberts mother made up a parcel with the calculus book and two checks, and mailed it to Robert that very day. When she returned from the post office, her husband was waiting for her.“Well, how much did you give the boy this time?” asked Dad.“I send two checks: one for $100 and the other for $1, 100,” answered Mom.“Youre outing your mind,” yelled Dad, “Thats $1,100. Hell just spend that in a couple of weeks. Hes never going to learn the value of money that way.”“Dont worry, honey,” Mom said, “I taped the $100 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one between the pages in Charper13!”Keys: TFFFTTask3: How to Get Straight AsScriptIt is interesting to note how straight A students achieve academic excellence. Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before recreation.Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination.Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, “Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.”Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a book entitled Getting Straight As, the secret of good reading is to be “an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the authors message”.1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about superachievers starting to study?2.What did the cross-country runner do to score high on the exam?3.What is the good thing all top students agree on?4.What does the speaker mean by “an active reader”?5.What is the main idea of the passage?Kes: 1B 2.C3.

ScriptW: I have a very important meeting tonight, and Im afraid I cant miss it.M: But this evening is the parents meeting at school, and I was expecting youd come to it. OK, Ill phone Dad, maybe he and his girlfriend will come.Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?5. ScriptW1: So youre still single? If youd listen to me and used the Internet, youd have a husband by now.W2: I did use the Internet. I posted an ad that read “Husband Wanted”. There were dozens of e-mail responses.
