Question

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。

Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.

● Recite and repeat in conversation. When you hear a person’s name, repeat it._1_ You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.

● Ask the other person to recite and repeat. _2_ After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.

● _3_ Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy （同情） if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”

● Use associations （联想）. _4_  For example, you could make a mental note: “ Vicki Cheng???????????????? — tall, black hair.” To reinforce (强迫) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.

● Limit the number of new names you learn at one time. When meeting a group of people, concentrate（全神贯注）on remembering just two or three names. _5_  Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.

A. Admit you don’t know.

B. Recite and repeat names.

C. Free yourself from remembering everyone.

D. You can let other people help you remember their names.

E. If you can’t remember someone’s name, you may tell him the truth.

F. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips.

G. Link each person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual.
