[00:05.15]Lesson 1

[00:09.59]Exercise 1.2

[00:13.59]Hi,I'm a Junior high school student.

[00:17.13]I had a wonderful summer vacation,

[00:20.07]but I found I forgot a lot of my English

[00:23.61]after the vacation.

[00:25.48]And I always have a hard time

[00:27.79]remembering English words.

[00:30.36]This makes me upset,

[00:32.45]My question is: is there anything I can do

[00:35.85]to improve my memory and be a better learner?

[00:43.98]Exercise 1.3

[00:47.04]Yes ,there are a number of ways

[00:49.53]to help improve your memory,

[00:51.55]so you shouldn't feel upset.

[00:53.65]My first advice is that

[00:55.37]if you want to remember something well,

[00:57.97]you have to review it regularly.

[01:00.71]You might want to go over the material

[01:02.50]two days after you learn it ,

[01:05.07]then a week later,then two weeks later,

[01:08.80]and then a month later,

[01:11.38]After a month you will find that

[01:14.15]you can easily remember the material.

[01:16.29]My second advice is to use a colored pen

[01:19.86]to highlight the important parts on your book,

[01:22.89]This will help you in two ways,

[01:24.98]First,it will help you concentrate on

[01:27.85]the most important parts

[01:29.50]when you learn the knowledge,

[01:30.93]It is always easier to remember

[01:32.59]only the key points

[01:34.29]Second,this will make reviewing easier,

[01:37.58]When you open your book ,

[01:39.19]the colored parts will show you

[01:41.20]the most important things immediately.

[01:43.54]In this way,

[01:44.28]you don't have to go over all the material again

[01:47.58]Another piece of advice is to go over

[01:49.65]all the information in your mind

[01:51.49]right before you go to sleep.

[01:53.72]Your brain is working while you are sleeping.

[01:56.57]If you think about the information

[01:58.26]before you go to sleep,

[02:00.30]you might be able to remember it better.

[02:03.03]Another good time for memorizing information

[02:05.36]is in the morning

[02:06.84]because you have just rested

[02:08.66]and your brain is fresh and clear,

[02:10.98]So you might also try to memorize the important

[02:13.20]information in the morning.

[02:15.58]Before you use these ideas,

[02:17.89]you should know that to memorize something well

[02:20.76]you must understand it,

[02:22.49]Make sure you know about the material

[02:24.60]and don't just recite it.

[02:30.76]Exercise 2.2

[02:33.94]According to scientists,

[02:35.80]there are different ways

[02:37.01]to remember different things,

[02:38.96]If you want to remember a list of words,

[02:41.35]you might organize the words

[02:43.02]in a sentence or a story,

[02:45.35]For example.If you want to remember vocabulary

[02:49.26]"regularly.confident,advice,upset ,

[02:54.73]review and memory",

[02:57.43]you can put them in a sentence like"

[02:59.94]If you feel upset about your memory,

[03:02.65]my advice is be confident

[03:04.89]and review the things regularly."

[03:07.65]Organizing things is a lot of fun.

[03:10.72]If you want to memorize a paragraph,

[03:14.11]you might probably need to concentrate

[03:16.49]on the key points,

[03:18.51]You should understand the paragraph First

[03:21.14]and then look at the organization

[03:23.30]of the paragraph.

[03:25.17]In general,

[03:25.93]a paragraph will have a topic sentence,

[03:29.13]From this sentence

[03:30.19]you will know the main idea.

[03:32.67]And then you need to find out the details and

[03:35.06]how they support the main idea.

[03:37.95]Different people have different ways

[03:39.89]in memorizing.

[03:41.41]No people can say which way is better.
