Most people hope to have a memory which helps them succeed in study，work and life.Can memory be improved？Luckily，hundreds of studies in the past 50 years have already given us a definite answer.
A healthy lifestyle keeps your brain young and memory sharp.First of all，it is necessary to have a healthy diet.Eating more food rich in B vitamins and vitamin E，such as vegetables and lean meat，helps you have a better memory.Doing exercise can keep your brain alive，too.Proper exercise provides much needed oxygen for the brain.Running，riding a bike，swimming and even walking two or three times a week are helpful.Moreover，getting enough sleep is important.Only when your brain gets a good rest，can it work well.The healthier your lifestyle is，the better your memory will become，but do not expect a sudden change—it takes a long time to make a difference.
Memory skills help you remember things better.The following three are the most widely used.Chunking is a way of remembering a piece of information by cutting it into smaller ones.For example，to memorize a ten digit telephone number 2127983630，you can divide the digits into three groups: first 212，then 798，and lastly 3630.This method is far more effective that remembering a string of 10 digits.Organization means organizing information into groups of the the same kind.For example，trees，grass and flowers are plants；tigers，pandas，horses and cows are animals.Imagery is remembering newly learned information by using your imagination and connecting it with something that you are familiar with.
However，memory skills will hardly work if you don't understand the information.What's more，only a regular review can make the memory last long.That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learned after one day and then after three days，and then use it as regularly as possible.
Human brains are like muscles that need nutrients and exercise to become stronger.If you make a few lifestyle changes and try some memory skills，you can certainly improved your memory.

Do you like games？Do you like playing games with children？Children have their own rules in playing games.They seldom need a referee(裁判员)and hardly trouble to keep scores.They don't care much about who wins or loses，and it doesn't seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet，they like games that depend a lot on luck，so that their personal abilities can't be directly compared.
Grown ups can hardly find children's games exciting，and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again.However，it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person，and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident，too.In some game，where it is his place to give orders，to pretend to be dead，to throw a ball actually at someone，or to kiss someone he has caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game，everyone knows the rules.And more importantly，everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish，but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

You need some bread and milk.But half an hour later，you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车)full of food.What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money
The tricks usually start before you walk in.Outside the supermarket entrance，anybody who walks past can smell warm，fresh bread.That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food，not just bread.
Now you're inside and，of course，a small basket would be fine，but all they have are trolleys.And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside.So we may fill it with something.In fact，supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.
Of course，many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops.So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products.One new trick is to put red stickers on products.Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red sticker is easy to be noticed，even when there is no reduction！Interestingly，this trick appears to work more with men than with women.
There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket.For example，customers often go only to buy milk.So they put it right at the back，forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products.The position of products on each shelf is also important.The most expensive products are usually at eye level so you see these immediately.The exception is anything that children might like.These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.
Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket，what about what you listen to？In most supermarkets they have soft，slow music.It's so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time(and money)in the store.You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy.Experts suggest it's better to shop when it's quieter，on a Monday or a Tuesday for example.And be careful with queues at the checkouts.These are sometimes deliberate(故意的)，to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.
So，next time you go into your local supermarket，remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.
( )1.Smells from bread in the supermarket ________．
A．make you feel hungry and buy more food
B．draw your attention to bread only
C．make you buy less bread than you need
D．force you to leave the supermarket
( )2.Supermarkets don't provide baskets because ________．

It was the Greek shopkeeper(店主)who taught me about the power of being kind.
In 2008，I left Spain to study alone in London.My parents had to bring up my three younger sisters and two younger brothers，so I found three part time jobs to pay for my studies.I worked early mornings and late nights，so I was tired，really tired，all the time.
Unluckily，I got a cold and had a very high fever.Because I had spent all my free time working since I came to London，I hardly took part in any activities and I had no friends.Besides，I was too shy to communicate with others and ask others for help.
After sleeping on the bed for two days，I went out to get some food.Normally，I went to the supermarket，but this time I went into the Greek shop，a small corner shop，because it was closer.
I picked up some food and gave it to the shopkeeper，who asked me，“You look terrible，my boy！You are not feeling well，right？”
I said “yes” in a low voice.
She pointed at the salami(腊肠)and bread I was buying and offered，“I can make you a sandwich，so you don't have to do it yourself.”
I nodded without saying a word.
So，she made the sandwich and asked me to wait a moment.She went into the back room and came again with a bowl of hot soup.“It will warm you up，” she said with a friendly smile.
What really warmed me up was not the soup.It was her smile that told me she cared me.Her kindness reminded me of my mother.
I had been quite shy，but from that day on，I did not let shyness prevent me from communicating with and being kind to others.Now I work in a children's hospital in Africa.I love my work and people around me.I always bring my smile and kindness to them.
