We all have the experience—looking at a book, hoping that what we study will come to our mind itself. Many of us have probably wondered, “Are there any ways to improve memory (记忆)?” So, why don’t we look at what memory experts say about this?
Every student knows that it’s helpful to review (复习) what they studied the last day. Experts tell us we can learn things better if we wait for some time before trying to study them again. They say that trying to find something from your memory after you have some time to forget it will make it easier to remember in the future. It is not clear why this happens. But some think the relationship between long-term and short-term memory makes a difference.
Another study tip is to change between different subjects as you study. This can help you make connections (关联) between different ideas. One of the world memory champions (记忆冠军) Jonathan Hancock once says connecting ideas with each other is a good way to remember some things.
There are also more things that we can do to improve our memory. Hancock says that being well-organized makes things easier for your brain (大脑). That’s to say, if you put things in a certain order in your brain, you can remember them in a shorter time.
Many other experts also advise that we should take enough rest and do more exercise. In this way, our mind can be clearer to take in things.
So, the good news to take from this is that although it needs lots of practice and takes time to make it, there is something we can do to improve our memory.
