Have you noticed what advertisers do when they want you to remember their message? They make you do something ____1____: ask questions, feel excited, imagine possibilities, laugh... They know that drawing a ____2____ is the best way to switch your memory on.
____3____, left to our own devices, we can ____4____ into a much more passive approach. It’s all too easy to spend an hour reading a textbook ____5____ any of it going in. And I can’t be the only person to have sat through an entire presentation only to ____6____ that not a single word has stuck!
But here’s the good news: active learning is an easy ____7____ to get into. It simply means deciding that the material in front of you is worth ____8____, then doing something to put your ____9____ to work.
So let’s give it a try. Here’s a fairly dry set of _____10_____: the ten countries with the most vehicles per person are San Marino, Monaco, New Zealand, USA, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Finland, Australia, Brunei, Switzerland.
You could just read a _____11_____ like this a few times, hoping it _____12_____. Or, you could ask _____13_____—like why these countries have so many vehicles, or what their most common vehicles might be. You could look for patterns, _____14_____ places you’ve visited, or say them in your head in exaggerated (夸张的) accents...
Have a go yourself. Engage in _____15_____, rather than just looking or listening. Then cover the list and see how _____16_____ your memory works.
Every day you encounter material that would be useful to _____17_____. Do something — almost _____18_____—to get learning going.
Your brain’s _____19_____, but it won’t do what you want by magic. So invest some energy when it _____20_____, to start making your memory work!
