The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms，but it can hold much more information than most computers.However，there is another difference between human brains and computers.Computers don't forget information they are given，but humans often do.No one remembers everything，and luckily we don't usually have to.But everyone can improve their memories if they want to.Here are some suggestions.
Try to use new information immediately.For example，if you meet someone who says "Hi!I'm Carlos"，don't just say "hello".Repeat the person's name and say "Hello，Carlos".
Break a big number into small parts.For example，it's hard to remember 109244153.But if you break it into three parts﹣109/244/153，it will become easier.
Write down what you need to remember over and over again.This will help you keep it in mind longer，especially when memorizing formulas or facts.
Always review information.If you bring what you've learned back to your mind，it'll become easier to remember.For example，before you go to sleep，it's a good idea to review the new things you've learned that day.
Discuss things with friends.It is always easier to remember things through discussions.You can have a discussion about what's right or wrong，and it will lead to the right answer.
All of the suggestions are helpful.If you follow them，you are certain to improve your memory.

The Value of Negative Results
We all avoid failure（失败），and most of us fear it.However，without failure，progress would be impossible.What does success usually come after？Failure.It seems that one cannot exist（存在）without the other.
Accepting failure is not easy for many，though we are often unwilling accept failure because our professional fame depends on success.（1） In the past ten years，for example，some scientific magazines have published reports of failed tests.It is believed that scientists can learn more "negative（负面的）"results and that this can finally lead to positive results.
（2） The ABN AMRO bank started an Institute （机构）of Brilliant Failures to learn more about what works and what doesn't in banking.Eli Lilly and Company had failure parties to study the drugs（药物）that don't work.
In fact，one of the business world's most famous failures became one of its biggest successes，in part because the product's makers learned from their mistakes.（3） The product，though unique（独特的）at the time，was expensive and heavy；besides，some of its most important features（特点）didn't work properly.As a result，Apple's CEO，Steve Jobs，believed in the product and he began to find out ways of improving it.In time，this led to the production of the iPhone and the iPad，two of the company's most successful products.
（4） Not only should we try to learn from it if we want to succeed，we must also be persistent（执着的）.Though Apple stopped selling the Newton in 1998，the first iPhone wasn't available until 2007.It took a lot of research and hard work to go from the Apple Newton to iPhone but in the end，the effort became successful.
All in all，there is a lot we can learn by studying mistakes.Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin. （5）
A.One truly cannot exist without the other.
B.We are brave enough to face difficulties.
C.In the early 1990s，Apple created a phone called the Apple Newton.
D.The business world already understands the value of negative results.
E.The Apple Newton has won popularity with people all over the world.
F.However，things are slowly changing，especially in business and science.
G.The story of the Apple Newton can teach us an important lesson about failure.
Many scientist once believed that physical similarities between identical twins are genetic（基因的），while their personalities，intelligence and other differences between them are an effect of their environment.Now scientists are discovering that the boundaries（界限）between genes and environment are not so clear.
Twins Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted（领养）as babies and raised by different couples.When the Jims finally met at age 39，they discovered they had plenty in common.Both were six feet tall，180 pounds.They had the same smile and the same voice.When scientist Thomas Bouchard Jr.invited the Jim twins to his lab，people there found it very hard to tell them apart.
But the similarities didn't stop at the physical.They'd both had dogs named Toy.They had both married women named Linda and then their marriage broke up.They'd both been policemen，enjoyed music，and left love notes around the house for their wives.They had so much in common，it seemed unlikely these were just coincidences （巧合）.
The Jim twins were just one of 137 sets of separated twins.Bouchard tested.When they compared the twins' IQ scores，Bouchard and his team reached a surprising conclusion（结论）.They concluded that intelligence was mostly connected to genes rather than to training or education.It seemed the differences in family and environment had little effect.
However，genes can't control everything，argues geneticist Danielle Reed，who also studies twins.Reed's research shows that though nothing can truly change our DNA，environmental differences that a child experiences before birth and in their first year can sometimes affect the way the DNA behaves，making even identical twins into very different people. "What I like to say is that Mother Nature writes some things in pencil and some things in pen， "She explains. "Things written in pen you can't change.That's DNA.But things written in pencil you can. "

Rock formations play an （4）i role in the design of a Chinese﹣style garden.Without them，a garden could not be considered a Chinese﹣style garden.They are as important to a Chinese﹣style garden as sculptures are to a European﹣style garden.Ge Garden in Yangzhou is famous for （5）i Four Seasons Rockeries（假山花园）.
（6）G in the south are mostly small in size.Chinese garden designers have used the method of "borrowing scenery with a mirror（镜子）" to create a sense of （7）s .A mirror is hung opposite a window to take in the outside scenery.A fine example of this is Pian Shi Shan Fang，a rockery in He Garden，Yangzhou.A big mirror is built into the wall of its west corridor.The whole garden will be （8）s in the mirror wherever the visitors are.A pool or a lake in a garden （9）a serves this purpose.A pool runs from south to north through the garden of Pian Shi Shan Fang.East of the rockery，a man﹣made moon is reflected（倒映）in the （10）p .
Whatever methods used，every effort is made to achieve the purpose of giving visitors a sense of space in the garden.
Reading is fun!You can also analyze texts（文本）to learn more from the texts and about the texts.One way you can do this with fiction books，passages，or poems is by exploring their themes.
A theme is a central idea running throughout the text，connecting the characters and events.The writer may express his or her thoughts about humanity or a worldview through a theme.Themes can be ideas like friendship，bravery，love，honesty or family.Make sure you know what the writer is saying.
Sometimes，themes are hard to find out.First，the theme may not be able to be included in just one word like the examples above.There may also be more than one theme in the text.What's more，some themes are not presented in the words directly.You have to use clues in the texts to find them.
To start exploring the theme，first you need to make sure you've read the whole text.Since themes develop over time，you can't fully understand the underlying themes until the end of the text.Then，ask yourself to sum up（概括）the text and try to work out a "big idea".For example，did many characters resolve problems with their families？If there was only one small problem with a character's family，then "family" might not be the theme of the text.Finally，after finding out a "big idea"，go through the text to find examples that support this idea.You needn't repeat every detail of the story﹣a few key examples will be fine.
Now you are ready to explore the theme of a text!

Eyes always on us
Video cameras are everywhere: schools, theatres and stores. But in recent years, theyhave entered our homes. Many parents set up cameras at home to watch their children's online classes and homework. Are cameras really helpful? What do students think about it?
| Li Ming Earlier last year, I liked to lie in bed and videos instead of studying. This watch affected my studies and made my grades worse. So my parents set up a camera to keep an eye on me. It worked. With the camera watching, I had to do my homework first and make plans for studying at home. When I was alone at home, the camera made me feel safe because I knew that my parents were watching on the other side. My grades improved after a year. |
Zhang Hua When I was in Grade 8, my parent set up a camera in my room. I really didn't like it because I felt like there were always eyes watching me. I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn't sleep well at night. Knowing there was a camera around when my friends came to my home, they would speak quietly and carefully. We couldn't have pillow fights. I was sad. So I asked my parents to take the camera away. They agreed it as long as I promised to behave well. I feel happy and free now. |
