If you do not use your arms or 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. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When some one 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 practice. The position is exactly the same as that of two people, one of whom exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a 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 as much his own fault as it was his arms or legs that were weak. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever; 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? Why is this? Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a notebook. They have to remember dates, times, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is always being exercised.
So if you want a good memory, learn from the poor and humble: practise remembering.
The author comes to the conclusion that______.
选项
A、memory can be improved by practising it
B、the poorer one is, the better memory he has
C、if you want a good memory, do not read or write anything
D、the poor and humble people may help you remember things
答案
A
解析
本题为综合理解题,考查对作者观点的理解。全文从头至尾在探讨的问题是记忆力像身体四肢的能力一样可以通过锻炼加强,并且还提到那些不会读写的人往往有很好的记忆力,因为他们必须将所有的事情记在心里。文章最后还说“So if you want a good memory,learn from the poor and humble:practise remembering.”。意思是想有好的记忆力,就向那些贫穷而卑微的人学习:锻炼记忆力。所以作者的结论就是通过锻炼改善记忆力,故选项A正确。选项B.“越穷记忆力越好”的结论在文章中根本没有提及,作者也没有得出这样的结沦。选项C表达的“要想记忆力好,就别学文化”则衍生于作者的举例,并非作者的观点。选项D表达的“贫穷和卑微的人可以帮你记住事情”与作者原意不符,作者的意图是:向他们学习锻炼记忆力。
