牛津英语9A的课文第六课memory的原文.如题
Joyce wanted to include a
feature about memory in the
school newspaper. She and her
editors all agreed to write short
articles on the topic.
ARTHUR
I know hat we have a
short-term memory and a
long-term memory.When we
get old, our short-term memory
becomes worse,but we can still
remember things from a long
time ago.
My grandpa told me a joke.He
said,‘When you get old,three
things start to go wrong.First,
you lose your memory...and
i can't remrmber what the other
two things are!'
JOYCE
I saw a programme on television
about a man with an injured
brain.He couid 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 was often angry with
her because he thought that she
never visited him. it was very
sad.
PANSY
If you want to remember something,you
should make a picture of it in your mind.If
the picture is silly,strange and colourful, you
wil remember it better.
For example,I am trying to remember the
word‘smiles'.An easy way to do this is to
imagine 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,there
are some amazing stories about memory.
For example,Gou Yanling from Harbin in
china has memorized 15,000 telephone
numbers.And Dominic O'Brien from the
UK remembered the correct order of 1,820
playing cards,after seeing them just once.
MILLIE
Memory is connected to our
feelings.If someone shouts
‘Spider!'and puts a large
spider on your hand,you
will probably remember the
word ‘spider'.If something
dramatic happens,we
usually remember it well. For
example,most old people in
the USA can remember where
they were when they heard
about the death of President
John F Kennedy in 1963.
呵呵,我们今天刚学.
