Memory
Joyce wanted to have 1 ( 有 关 于 记 忆 的 专 题 ) in the school
newspaper. She and her 2 (编辑们) all agreed to write short articles 3 (有关于) this topic.
ARTHUR
I read in a book that we have 4 (短期记忆) and a long-term memory. When people get old, their short-term memory becomes w 5 (weak), but they can still remember things
6 happened a long time ago.
My grandad told me a joke about memory. He said, ‘When you get old, three things start to 7 (出错). First, you start to lose you memory. And I can’t remember what the other two things
are!’
JOYCE
8 (记忆对生活来说至关重要). I saw a programme on television about a man 9 had had an accident and injured his brain. Afterwards, he could not remember anything
for longer than a few minutes.
His wife visited him in hospital every day, but he forgot her visits a few minutes after she left. He 10 (常常生她的气) because he thought that she never visited him. It was
very sad.
PANSY
One basic way of improving your memory is 11 (使用联想法). If you want to 12 (memory) something, you should make a picture in your mind. If the picture is silly, strange and colorful, you will remember it b 13 . For example, I am trying to remember the word ‘smile’. An easy way to do this is to i 14 there is a ‘mile’ between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the
longest word in the world!
TONY
In the Guinness Book of Records, we can find some 15 (amaze) stories about memory. For example, Gou Yanling from Harbin in China has memorized more than 15,000 telephone numbers. And Dave
Farrow from America remembered the correct o 16 of 2,704 playing cards, after seeing them just once.
MILLIE
Memory 17 (与我们的感觉相关联). For example, if someone says ‘This is a spider’, and then put a large spider on your hand, you will probably remember the word ‘spider’! When something 18 (drama) happens, we usually remember it well, and we also remember where we were and 19 ( 我们 正在做什 么). For example, most people in China can remember where they were when the 20 (开幕式) of the 29th Olympic Games was held
in Beijing in 2008.

The Japanese are well known to have some of the longest life
expectancies( 长寿) in the world. They also enjoy the l 1 obesity( 肥胖症) rate in the developed countries.
What's the secret Their healthy diet contributes a lot.
"Eating" with your eyes
An important f 2 of the Japanese diet is the visual appeal( 视觉 吸 引) of food. Food with attractive appearance is presented on pretty little dishes and plates. This way of dining enables you to "eat" with your eyes, by enjoying the beauty of the food. The result is that you slow down to savor(品尝) every bite, which means eating
less, because it gives your brain time to r 3 you're full.
Smaller portions (量)
In Japan, food is served on separate small plates, and in bowls instead of on one big plate. Diners take turns having a little taste of e 4 . Serving smaller portions maybe one of the best secrets for healthy eating and
weight loss.
Vegetable craze
Japanese p 5 fresh vegetables and fruits. Lots of fresh vegetables and fruits are eaten daily in the Japanese diet. Japan is kind of a "vegetable-crazed"(嗜蔬菜如命的) nation. When Japanese women were asked
which home-cooked meals they most loved to prepare for their families, "mixed vegetable simmered(炖) in soup"
came out on top. Green beans, onions, tomatoes, green, peppers, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potatoes all have a place in the Japanese diet. Vegetables are served simmered in soup, stir—fried (炒) in a small bit of canola
oil(菜油) or lightly steamed. All these m 6 keep a maximum amount of nutrients(营养成分).
Plenty of fish
Japanese eat a lot of fish. Japan account for (占…… 比例) only 2% of the world's population, but its people eat 10% of the world's fish. Fish, e 7 fatty fish, for example, salmon (三文鱼) and tuna (金枪鱼) are Japanese
favorites. Eating a lot of fish help them to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Children in the US are active about community service and regard it as a necessary part of their lives. Some
school make community service a requirement for graduation. Let’s look at what students abroad have been doing
for their communities.
Shi Siyao, 17, an 11th grader in the US

a smart little guy, with extraordinary ideas in mind. Sometimes he is naughty just
I had time with actually
because
he is eager to make friends.
Chen Tuo, 17, a 12th grader in the US
Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” I am willing to agree with him. I have been volunteering at the Boston Children’s Hospital every year since I was 13. At the beginning, I only wanted to go because I would get credit(学分) for something as simple as entertaining(哄) children at the hospital. After giving my time from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for two months, my opinion changed
completely.
Zheng Chenyu, 17, an 11th grader in the US
Last Wednesday, I had my first painting job as a member of Habitat for Humanity, an organization that helps build and rebuild homes for people in need. I remembered that, back when my family was decorating our new house, I was so eager to help with the painting of the wall. Unfortunately, I was never allowed to touch the brushes. “You would just ruin the wall and your clothes!” my mum shouted. I felt overjoyed when the school bus carried ten
of us to the shelter. I would finally have a chance to paint the wall myself.
1. Is community service a requirement for graduation in all American schools
2. How old was the kid Shi Siyao worked with most in her neighbourhood
3. What did Shi Siyao think of the boy named Ryan
4. Why did Chen Tuo volunteer at the Boston Children’s Hospital at the beginning

I read in a book that we have 4 (短期记忆) and a long-term memory. When people get old, their short-term memory becomes w 5 (weak), but they can still remember things
6 happened a long time ago.
My grandad told me a joke about memory. He said, ‘When you get old, three things start to 7 (出错). First, you start to lose you memory. And I can’t remember what the other two things
are!’
JOYCE
8 (记忆对生活来说至关重要). I saw a programme on television about a man 9 had had an accident and injured his brain. Afterwards, he could not remember anything
for longer than a few minutes.
His wife visited him in hospital every day, but he forgot her visits a few minutes after she left. He 10 (常常生她的气) because he thought that she never visited him. It was
very sad.

One basic way of improving your memory is 11 (使用联想法). If you want to 12 (memory) something, you should make a picture in your mind. If the picture is silly, strange and colorful, you will remember it b 13 . For example, I am trying to remember the word ‘smile’. An easy way to do this is to i 14 there is a ‘mile’ between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the
longest word in the world!
TONY
In the Guinness Book of Records, we can find some 15 (amaze) stories about memory. For example, Gou Yanling from Harbin in China has memorized more than 15,000 telephone numbers. And Dave
Farrow from America remembered the correct o 16 of 2,704 playing cards, after seeing them just once.
MILLIE
Memory 17 (与我们的感觉相关联). For example, if someone says ‘This is a spider’, and then put a large spider on your hand, you will probably remember the word ‘spider’! When something 18 (drama) happens, we usually remember it well, and we also remember where we were and 19 ( 我们 正在做什 么). For example, most people in China can remember where they were when the 20 (开幕式) of the 29th Olympic Games was held
in Beijing in 2008.

)The Japanese are well known to have some of the longest life
expectancies( 长寿) in the world. They also enjoy the l 1 obesity( 肥胖症)
in the developed countries. What's the secret Their healthy diet contributes a lot.
"Eating" with your eyes
An important f 2 of the Japanese diet is the visual appeal( 视觉 吸 引) of food. Food with attractive appearance is presented on pretty little dishes and plates. This way of dining enables you to "eat" with your eyes, by enjoying the beauty of the food. The result is that you slow down to savor(品尝) every bite, which means eating
less, because it gives your brain time to r 3 you're full.
Smaller portions (量)
In Japan, food is served on separate small plates, and in bowls instead of on one big plate. Diners take turns having a little taste of e 4 . Serving smaller portions maybe one of the best secrets for healthy eating and
weight loss.
Vegetable craze
Japanese p 5 fresh vegetables and fruits. Lots of fresh vegetables and fruits are eaten daily in the Japanese diet. Japan is kind of a "vegetable-crazed"(嗜蔬菜如命的) nation. When Japanese women were asked
which home-cooked meals they most loved to prepare for their families, "mixed vegetable simmered(炖) in soup"
came out on top. Green beans, onions, tomatoes, green, peppers, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potatoes all have a place in the Japanese diet. Vegetables are served simmered in soup, stir—fried (炒) in a small bit of canola
oil(菜油) or lightly steamed. All these m 6 keep a maximum amount of nutrients(营养成分).
Plenty of fish
Japanese eat a lot of fish. Japan account for (占…… 比例) only 2% of the world's population, but its people eat 10% of the world's fish. Fish, e 7 fatty fish, for example, salmon (三文鱼) and tuna (金枪鱼) are Japanese
favorites. Eating a lot of fish help them to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Children in the US are active about community service and regard it as a necessary part of their lives. Some school make community service a requirement for graduation. Let’s look at what students abroad have been doing
for their communities.
Shi Siyao, 17, an 11th grader in the US
I chose to attend a programme for handicapped( 残疾的) kids in my neighbourhood. The kids I worked with most was a six-year-old boy named Ryan. I had been told that he was always the child who made the teachers crazy. However, my time with Ryan went surprisingly well. I did not take long for me to discover that he was actually a smart little guy, with extraordinary ideas in mind. Sometimes he is naughty just because he is eager to
make friends.
Chen Tuo, 17, a 12th grader in the US
Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” I am willing to agree with him. I have been volunteering at the Boston Children’s Hospital every year since I was 13. At the beginning, I only wanted to go because I would get credit(学分) for something as simple as entertaining(哄) children at the hospital. After giving my time from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for two months, my opinion changed
completely.
Zheng Chenyu, 17, an 11th grader in the US
Last Wednesday, I had my first painting job as a member of Habitat for Humanity, an organization that helps build and rebuild homes for people in need. I remembered that, back when my family was decorating our new house, I was so eager to help with the painting of the wall. Unfortunately, I was never allowed to touch the brushes. “You would just ruin the wall and your clothes!” my mum shouted. I felt overjoyed when the school bus carried ten
of us to the shelter. I would finally have a chance to paint the wall myself.
