As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，do people remember less？if you know your computer will store information，why do you store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.

In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow made some experiments（实验）.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory.

In the first experiment，they asked two groups of people to put 40 unimportant facts into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would store the information.The second group understood that the computer would not store it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it.

In the second experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in an exact in an exact computer folder（文件夹）.Surprisingly，people later remember where the folder is better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.However，they remember how to find it.This is called "transitive memory （交互记忆）".

According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transitive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize a lot of information so that they are able to get it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less clever，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

（2）What can we learn form the first experiment？

D.Group 2 remembered the information better.

（3）What do we know about transitive memory from the second experiment？　　

A.People organize the information like a computer.

B.People remember how to find the information.

C.People remember how to make a folder.

D.People keep the information in mind.

（4）What's Professor Betsy Sparrow's conclusion（结论）？

If your pencil box is broken，the batteries（电池）in your flashlights run out，or you have some leftover food，how will you deal with these things？You will probably throw them all into one rubbish bin.But actually，we need to sort（分类）all the rubbish separately.If you don't sort your rubbish，all of it will go to a special place where it is buried（埋藏）together.As a result，it will take up some fields.Some rubbish will pollute the groundwater.Some rubbish that can be reused will be wasted.

In recent years，some Chinese cities have been working hard on rubbish sorting.

Shanghai has called on all the people living in this city to sort their rubbish into four groups：wet，recyclable，harmful and dry.Wet waste is known as household waste.They are things you don't want but pigs can eat.Paper，metal，glass，plastic and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.Harmful waste includes thins like medicine，batteries.Finally，any waste that is not wet，recyclable or harmful will go to the "dry waste" bin.

Many other Chinese cities are also using this way to sort their rubbish.For example，Deyang has been sorting its rubbish into the same four groups since several years ago.Students in Deyang have already received waste﹣sorting guidebooks.They have studied these books and known how to sort the rubbish.

China is now improving its waste﹣sorting efforts.There is still a long way to go.But it's never too late to learn how to sort your rubbish rightly.We should take an active part in it.
