Many people think they have a bad memory. They always spend so much time reciting(背诵) lessons. What can we do to improve our memory? Here are some suggestions.
Vivian, 15, from Beijing
I have some tricks to help remember lessons. First, you need to understand the meaning of each sentence. The better you understand, the easier it is to remember. Second, you can do research to get some background on it, like its writer and how he or she wrote it. It can help you understand the story better. Finally, read it aloud and imagine things in the story. You may find a lot of pictures come to mind. Then try to describe them.
Zhao Yujie, 14, from Jiangsu
Finding the best way to learn and remember can be hard sometimes. But don’t worry. It’s all about finding what works for you. One thing that always helps me is taking good notes while I read my lessons. But instead of copying it word for word, I put it into my own words. This will help you think through things better. Also, you can use the notes to go back and review later. Try this on your next lesson and see if it helps!

A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a weekend with our 3- and 4-year-old daughters. As we went back and thought about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum, ” said Ariela and Eliana.
As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies, all flapping (拍打) their colourful wings.
My girls were jumping up and down and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious and asked, “How long do butterflies live? ” She said, “About ten days. ” “What can butterflies do in ten days? ” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place. ” “Wow, ” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you. ”
After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference.
Appreciate(感激) the influence you can have on your family, friends, co-workers and neighbours. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world a little better for everyone.

In order to show that showering isn’t a big deal, an American hasn’t taken a shower for 12 years. Instead, he sprays (喷洒) himself with something special that is said to have kept him clean over the years.
Dave Whitlock, a chemical engineer, thinks no fact can show that bathing is a healthy practice. “I haven’t taken a shower for 12 years, ” he says. “In fact, the chemical (化学物) in our soap have killed all the friendly bacteria (细菌) that live on our skin when we use it. ”
For a long time, many people haven’t realized skin bacteria are important and helpful to the body. Although Whitlock isn’t a biologist (生物学家), he has tried his best to invent a kind of spray called “Mother Dirt” with friendly bacteria. According to Whitlock, the bacteria in the spray can take in something dirty on our skin and produce a kind of chemical which is good for our body.
Now the spray is being produced in a company which Whitlock has helped to set up. The spray has no smell and feels just like water. It can be sprayed all over the skin twice a day to avoid showering. And for those who really enjoy showering, the company is planning to develop a kind of special shower gel (沐浴露) with friendly bacteria.
