  If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact.  1   When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously.When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong.  2   One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.

  If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault.But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just his own fault.  3   But all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means -practice.

  Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can?  4   Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things.They cannot write them down in a little notebook and they have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is the whole time being exercised.  5  

A.What do you think of it?

B.Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.

C.Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever.

D.So if you want a good memory, practice remembering.

E.Someone else says that he is poor in health.

F.Why is this?

G.The position is exactly the same as that of two people.

  Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor.Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say, “My spoken English is poor.”  1   I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.

  First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.  2   However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude.Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.

    3   Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous.Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY.Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly.However, in speaking your aim is fluency.You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter.  4  

  The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening.You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.

  Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive language learners.Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor.  5  

A.The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.

B.They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.

C.Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.

D.If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.

E.However, their spoken English does not have to remain “poor”!

F.Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.

G.The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned.

  She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever.But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.

    1  

  “The thin, wooden panel(面,板)on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said.  2  

    3   “It is very interesting that when you’re not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University.“It’s because direct vision(视觉)is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows.Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”

  However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile.  4  

  In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat.He said he planned to return it to Italy.The painting was sent back to France two years later.

  5

C.Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world’s most famous painting is not easy.

F.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum(卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.

G.During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
