However, there is another difference between humans and computers. Computers dont forget information they are given, but humans often do. No one remembers everything, and luckily we dont usually have to. But everyone can improve their memory if they want to. Here are some suggestions.Try to use new information immediately. For example, if you meet someone who says Hi! Im Carlos, dont just say Hello. Repeat the persons name. Say Break a big number into smaller parts. For example, its hard to memorize (记忆) 109244153. But if you break it into three parts109/244/153it becomes easier.Write out what you need to remember over and over again. This will help you keep it in mind longer, especially for memorizing formulas (公式) or facts.Always review information. If you bring what youve learned back to your mind, they become easier to remember. For example, before you go to sleep, its a good idea to review the new things you learned that day.Discuss with a friend. It is always easier to remember things through discussions. You can have a discussion about whats right and whats wrong, and it will lead to the right answer.Never tell yourself that you have a bad memory. You can always do something to help improve your memory. And everyones memory gets better if they use it often enough.All of the suggestions are helpful.
