Answer 1

Memory
Joyce wanted to include a feature about memory in the school newspaper. She and her editors all agreed to write short articles on the topic.
ARTHUR
I know that we have a short-term memory and a long-term memory. When we get old, our short-term memory becomes worse, but we can still remember things from a long time ago.
My grandpa told me a joke. He said, ‘When you get old, three things start to go wrong. First, you lose your memory … and I can’t remember what the other two things are!’
JOYCE
I saw a programme on television about a man with an injured brain. He could not remember anything for longer than a few minutes.
His wife visited him in hospital every day, but he forgot her visits a few minutes after she left. He was often angry with her because he thought that she never visited him. It was very sad.
PANSY
If you want to remember something, you should make a picture of it in your mind. If the picture is silly, strange and colourful, you will remember it better.
For example, I am trying to remember the word ‘smiles’. An easy way to do this is to imagine there is a ‘mile’ between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the longest word in the world!
TONY
In the Guinness Book of Records, there are some amazing stories about memory. For example, Gou Yanling from Harbin in China has memorized 15,000 telephone numbers. And Dominic O’Brien from the UK remembered the correct order of 1,820 playing cards, after seeing them just once.
MILLIE
Memory is connected to our feelings. If someone shouts ‘Spider!’ and puts a large spider on your hand, you will probably remember the word ‘spider’. If something dramatic happens, we usually remember it well. For example, most old people in the USA can remember where they were when they heard about the death of President John F Kennedy in 1963.
