it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain
power? Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel,or only
partly understand. Often,explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your"explain power".
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many,if not most,highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head,but if you keep a journal (日志)of your ideas
the next time you"re working on a big project, you"11 probably have more success.
Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That"s an extreme example, but if you are learning
something new,write a letter to a friend about it,and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem---why you want to solve it,and why it is worth solving, and
you"re half-way there.
Writers don"t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often,they write
about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to
all understanding. Give it a try.

you saw last week? The major cause of your forgetfulness may be linked to what you store in your body,
not in your short-term memory bank.
Tests continue to show that people with enough Vitamin B-2 do well in memory exams. The "B"
could stand for "brain", if you"re one of many with limited instant recall. And the number one source of
that vitamin is sunflower seeds.
Even when you"re sleeping or relaxing, your brain is still at work. Although it makes up just two
percent of your total body weight, it uses up to 30 % of the calories you take in each day. For it to work
properly, it must be fed. Even if you"re not a breakfast eater, that meal is the best way to prepare your
brain for the day. A quick and easy English muffin with peanut and butter in it, a glass of milk, and an
orange, might be what your brain may be asking you the first thing in the morning when you feel your head
is in a fog. Having sunflower seeds and fruit between meals adds more muscle to that hungry, demanding
organ. Vitamin B-1 also helps the memory, and that is found in eggs, meats and nuts. In Chinese culture,
walnuts (核桃) are known as the fruit for a long life because it is believed that they feed both the kidneys
and the brain. And accor ding to Chinese culture, if you keep those two important organs in good working order, you"ll live longer.
However forgetful you are, just keep in mind the letter "B", which will help you to "bear in mind almost everything" even on those days when life"s challenges are sending you in a billion directions.

A. support the idea of long life

3. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. What we eat seems more important than what we learn in terms of memory.
B. Two percent of our brain is still active when we are sleeping or relaxing.
C. It doesn"t make much difference to our brain whether we have breakfast or not.

| In order to know a foreign language thoroughly(完全地), four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory(记忆) is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists(一览表) of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must "Learn through use". Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever(无论何时) we can. | |||
