Thats why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child.

They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.（ ）66.Some people can easily learn many things by heart because_.Athey always sleep very well Bthey often eat good foodCthey read a lot of books Dthey have very good memories（ ）67.Everybody learns his mother language_.Aat the age of six Bwhen he is a small childCafter he goes to school Dwhen he can read and write（ ）68.Before a child can speak, he must_.Aread and write Bmake sentencesChear and remember the sounds Dthink hard（ ）69.In school the pupils cant learn a foreign language well because_.Athey have no good memories Bthey have no recordersCthey have too much time for it Dthey are busy with other subjects（ ）70.Your memory will become better and better_.Aif you have plenty of good food Bif you do more and more exercisesCif you do morning exercises every day Dif you get up early五、从方框中选择恰当的单词，并用其正确形式完成短文（每空一分，共10分）take , beautiful, make, many, much, old, vacation, well, night, liveKate and Sandy are sisters.
