You might go over the material two days after you learn it, then a week later, then two weeks later, and then a month later. After a month you will _ that you can easily remember the material.My second advice is to use a red pen to _ lines under the important sentences in your book. This will help you in two ways. First, it will help you concentrate(集中) on the most important parts when you learn the _. It is always easier to remember only the important sentences. Second, this will make reviewing easier. When you open your book, the underlined parts will _ you the most important things immediately. In this way, you dont have to go over all the materials again.Another piece of advice is to review all the information in your _ just before you go to sleep. Your brain is working _ you are sleeping. If you think about the information before you go to sleep, you might be able to remember it better. Another good _ for memorizing information is in the morning because you have just rested and your brain is fresh and clear. So you might also _ memorize the important information in the morning.16 .

A man heard it and stopped me just as I walked off. He asked me. “You are leaving your brother here to find the shoe? What would you do if he is not here when you return?” I didnt know how to answer that question. He said, “Its OK if you cant find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to Mums workplace by taxi.During my whole life I have depended on the kindness of many strangers, I feel sorry that I cant find them and say “thank you”.
