The size and shape（外形）of your ears show your character（性格）more than any other part of the face. Other parts of the face change shapes as we get older，but ears do not change their shapes. They only change in size.
Reading people’s character from their ears is a very old science. In the past people thought that a person’s ears with colour was dangerous. They also thought that the shape of the ears showed if a person was musical or not. Today, too many people believe that the size and shape of the ears help you know if a person is musical.
Ears are all different，and each different thing has a meaning. Next time you look at a person，see if his or her ears are large，medium-size，or small. Look at the lobes（耳垂). Do they stick to the face Ears that are always red mean that a person may get angry easily. Ears that are always cold and nearly white colour mean that a person has a nervous（神经质）character.

A. his / her ears are red B. his / her ears will not change all the life

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start
using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chances to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受责备) , and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories This is because they cannot read or write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is during the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.
( )42. The main reason for one's poor memory is that_________.
A. his father or mother may have a poor memory

( )43. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time,________.
A. you can’t use them any more B. they will become stronger
C. they become weak but they slowly become strong again
D. they become weak and won't become strong until you use them again
( )44. Which of the following is NOT true
A. Don't learn how to read or write if you want to have a better memory.
B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don't give it enough chances for practice.
C. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.
D. A good memory comes from more practice.
