【题目】Improve your memory

Do you find yourself forgetting where you left your keys or blanking out information on important tests? 1Before your next big exam, be sure to check out some of these tried and tested ways of improving memory.

Focus your attention on the materials you are studying. Attention is one of the major components (组成部分) of memory. In order for information to move from short-term memory into long-term memory, you need to actively attend to this information. 2

Structure and organize the information you are studying. Researchers have found that information is best organized in related groups.3Or you can make an outline of your notes and textbook readings to help group related concepts (概念).

4 When you are studying unfamiliar material, take the time to think about how this information relates to things that you already know. By establishing relationships between new ideas and previously existing memories, you can greatly increase the likelihood of recalling (回想起) the recently learned information.

Pay extra attention to difficult information. Remembering information at the beginning or end of an article is easy. However, recalling information from its middle can be difficult. 5 Another way is to try restructuring what you have learned so it will be easier to remember. When you come across an especially difficult concept, devote some extra time to memorizing the information.

A.Use this approach in your own studies.

B. Try grouping similar concepts and terms together.

C. Relate new information to things you already know.

D. Repeat the information you are studying to improve memory.

E. Try to study in a quiet place and concentrate on your learning.

F. Fortunately, there are things that you can do to help improve your memory.

G. You can overcome this problem by spending extra time memorizing this information.

Skin-to-skin Effort Aims to Cut Newborn Deaths

A social media campaign has been launched in China to cut down the number of newborns babies who die in the first 24 hours of life. The campaign, called First Embrace(拥抱),promotes skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby immediately after birth, a practice proven to keep the baby warm and help it to fight infections.

There are 16 million babies born in China each year, and approximately 150,000 of them die before they reach one month of age. 【1】 Zhang Shuyi, a researcher at the Capital Institute of Pediatrics in Beijing, said there was strong evidence for the First Embrace approach.

“When babies are cold, they are more likely to catch infections or have difficulty breathing,” she said,” 2 It provides direct protection against infection, promotes bonding between the parent and child and supports breast-feeding.” Health workers who shifted from the normal practice of separation to skin-to-skin contact have observed that babies are more pink, calm and comfortable.

The WHO has developed the First Embrace approach to help reduce newborn deaths across the Western Pacific region, including China. Bernhard Schwartlander , the WHO Representative in China, said, “As many as two-thirds of newborn deaths could be prevented using simple, low-cost methods, including the First Embrace.”

3 The WHO will be posting information about the campaign, and hosting online question-and-answer sessions with Chinese and international experts. The public can participate by following the WHO on Weibo and joining the conversation. Schwartlander said, “We are targeting new parents, pregnant women and couples thinking about having a baby. 4

Just last month, a new research shows that child and mother health outcomes in Shanghai are equal to those in the USA and Canada. 5 Hopefully, the messages conveyed by the new campaign could help to bridge that gap.

A. The campaign has now been launched via Weibo.

B. Of that number, half die in the first 24 hours of life.

C. Skin-to-skin contact keeps a baby warm by transferring heat.

D. Those parents who lost their newborn babies can get supports on the platform.

E. In other parts of China, however, the statistics are like those of poor countries.

F. It indicates that related methods for health care and birth quality should be improved.

G. We also aim to involve health professionals in the importance of early essential newborn care.
