in the blanks with proper words.

We have heard about people who have special memories. Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every single d 1. of all the events in her daily life.

Rebecca Sharrock, 25, is one of just 80 people worldwide who have been identified as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory(超级自传体记忆症). It means she can remember every small event—which most people would f 2. within days—as if it had happened just moments ago.

“I remember my mum placing me in the driver’s seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was

twelve years old,” she said. “That’s my e 3. memory. I remember every day since then. I can’t tell all the dates e 4. because I was too young to understand calendars, but I remember what I did that day, what the weather was like and so on.”

Rebecca can also re-experience taste. If she’s eating something unpleasant, she thinks about Black Forest cake, her favorite food, and the memory will be so 5.p that she can nearly “taste” it.

However, there are times when her memories prove to be painful as it’s not just events that she remembers. “When I relive(再体验) memories, the feelings r 6. ,too.” Rebecca said. “For example, I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents’ house and hurting my left knee. Talking about it now, I feel painful in my left knee.”

“At night, I have to sleep with the r 7. and a soft light on,” she added. “If it’s too dark or quiet, my mind would be filled with all those memories and I can’t sleep.”

Books can be a best friend. But nowadays not many people enjoy reading books , and most people don’t start to read until they have the time. Do you know how to enjoy reading books?

You’ll have to decide where to find a book first. Look for books in a library or a big bookstore. You can also ask friends or borrow books from them if you can check out their books.

If you find a good book, just sit in a comfortable chair or sofa and begin reading. Be sure to sit comfortably, or you will get tired soon. It will help you a lot to sit comfortably while reading.

The environment for reading is important, too. It has to be quiet, so that you can be calm before you begin to read. If there is too much noise, it’s not good for you to read.

When you start to read, don’t think about anything else, but what you’re reading. Put yourself into the story. If you read carefully, it will be difficult to put the book down.

Read and really enjoy it. Reading is not running your eyes over a book. But if you need to, read out the book fast, then you do not need to pay attention to every word. Just read and enjoy the book.
