Have you ever been annoyed(恼怒)with yourself when you forget something important? Maybe you think you have a bad memory. But do you know your memory can be developed? Here are some ways you to have a try.
★Be positive. Do not tell yourself your memory is bad, or your mind will believe it and you won’t remember things easily. If you think you can, then you can.
★Relax yourself. People are too nervous to remember things well. Relaxing will help you a lot—deep breathe(深呼吸）and you can remember things easily.
★Think more. Things you know may help you to remember something new. For example, when you remember the word “classroom”, think of the old words “class” and “room” , it will help you remember quickly.
★Do more practice. Like your body, memory can be improved through exercise. The more times you practice, the more easily you will remember something.
★Eat healthy food. Healthy eating can improve your memory. It is reported that fish is good for improving memory, so try to eat more fish from now on.
1.A positive attitude is good for you to improve your memory.
2.Relaxing is not useful for people to develop memory.
3.Something you already know may help you remember what you are learning.
4.Memory can’t be improved by practicing.
