Here in Siberia (西伯利亚), the winter is always very long and it’s very, very cold! It starts to snow in November and the snow won’t leave until May. The temperature is usually about -25℃, but it’s sometimes much colder. When it’s -35℃, children can’t go to school, but grown-ups still go to work! We wear a lot of warm clothes: socks and boots, sweaters and fur coats. All the houses have heating, so it’s never cold inside. In winter, we close the windows to stop the wind from getting in, and we don’t open them again until spring.
In spring and summer it rains a lot, and we don’t often see the sun. In summer it’s often about 25℃, but the weather is very changeable. One day it’s 25℃, and the next day it’s 10℃. People say that the weather was even colder in the past.

Some people seem to have unusual memories． Zheng Aiqiang， a "memory athlete" on TV show Super Brain， can remember 2， 660 numbers in just one hour!
You would think people like him must have special brains． But according to a recent study by researchers from America and Holland， the brain structure （结构） of ordinary people and 23 of the world's lending memory athletes shows no difference．
Good memories can be trained． New research in the magazine Neuron suggests that a person will get a super memory with just six weeks of hard training．
Researchers found that a technique （技巧） called loci， invented by the ancient Greeks， can greatly help improve memory．
By using loci， you are using your imagination to improve the brain's memory networks． You can link （关联） something you need to remember with a place that you know very well． For example， to remember a list of numbers， imagine yourself walking through your house． Each thing is linked to a number． For example， zero could be the handle on the door and five could be the painting on the wall．
In one study， some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 nouns． At the beginning， they could only remember 26 words， but when they were taught loci， they could remember 62 words．
"Not everyone can become a memory winner． But everyone using the technique can improve his memory greatly，" said Boris Konrad， one of the researchers in the study．

Heritage（遗产） is traditional customs， history and beliefs． We use the word "heritage" in many different ways． People talk about their family heritage， city heritage and national heritage．
Today， heritage is changing， The Internet connects people around the world． In many ways this is a good thing， because we can learn about the heritage of other countries， and we can show our own heritage to the world． however， some people worry that traditional heritage is disappearing． In many ways， countries are becoming more and more alike（相似的）． In most countries around the world， you can find KFC， Nike shoes， Starbucks coffee， American movies and so on． Some people think this is a good change， and others don't like it． You can decide whether or not it's a good thing．
