I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was partly true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to plete my plan.First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 pm was not early.

I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 am. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep.

Im a bit nervous as Ive never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows! As we all know, its time to say goodbye to everyone. Were sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education, and we promise that well never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all. Now, Id like to thank three groups of people for the three things Ive learnt while Ive been a pupil at our school. The first group is my friends, and what Ive learnt is the importance of friendship. Weve worked hard together, weve even shared some difficult times together, but weve also had a lot of fun. Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. But friends dont have to see each other all the time. Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often. A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine. Well always stay in touch. The second group is our parents and grandparents. We thank you for the love you have shown us during our years at junior high school, for making a home where we feel both safe and relaxed. We also thank you for your help with our homework. How many of us owe our good grades to the suggestions you have made during those long evenings? And finally, the third group is our teachers. We can never pay you back for your kindness, your patience, and gift of knowledge which you have offered us; sometimes youve made us work very hard. But you have always been fair and youll always be our role models. Theres a saying from Ireland which is a favorite of mine: Strangers are only friends you havent met yet. I couldnt say it better myself. So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future.16. The speech was probably made by_. A. A head teacher. B. A graduate. C.

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. 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 healthieryour lifestyle is, the better your memory will bee, 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 than remembering a string of 10 digits. Organization means organizing information into groups of the same kind. For example, trees, grass and flowers are plants; tigers, pandas, horses and cows are animals, Imagery is remembering newly learnt information by using your imagination and connecting it with something that you are familiar with. However, memory skills will hardly work if you dont understand the information. Whats more, only a regular review can make the memory last long. That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learnt 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 bee stronger. If you make a few lifestyle changes and try some memory skills, you can certainly improve your memory. 26.
