　　about memory

　　some people have very good memory and can easily learn quite long poems by heart. there are other people who can only remember things when they have repeated them again and again. the famous english writer, charles dickens said that he could walk down any long street in london and then tell you the name of every shop he had passed. many of the great men of the world have wonderful memories.

　　a good memory is a help in learning a foreign language. everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he was a small child, and some children----like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents----seem to learn two languages as easily as one. in school it is not so easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are very busy with other subjects as well.

　　a man＇s mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we see but also what we feel, hear, smell and taste. when we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do before the photo is finished and is ready for us to show to our friends. in the same way there is much work to be done before we can keep a picture forever in our minds.

　　memory is the diary we all carry about us. we keep things we have eperienced in this diary.

　　【寫法指要】

　　本文說明了記憶（力）與學(xué)習(xí)、工作、成就的關(guān)系。前兩段用的是事例說明法，雖然沒有用銜接詞語“for eample，such as”等，但卻舉出了英國作家狄更斯和在海外隨父母居住的小孩等例子。后兩段用類推法說明了記憶與人腦和日記的關(guān)系，作者把記憶比做照相機(jī)和日記。
