Question

  A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language by remembering what he hears  when he is a small child, and some children―like boys and girls who live abroad  with their parents―seem to learn two languages almost as easily as one.In school  it is not easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it,and they are busy with other subjects,too.

  Our mind is rather like a camera,but it  takes photos not only of what we see but of 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 ready 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  mind.

Memory is the diary that we all carry about  with us.
