ou use them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works the same way.

When someone .says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When some- one else says that his memory is poor, he means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.

If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.

Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually have better memories？ This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people; practice remembering.

听力原文：A(Female): Not everybody reads the daily newspaper. People who don't read newspaper are sometimes referred to as non-readers.

B(Male): Yes. I think I am one of those who are called non-readers. I read no newspaper, no books. I just like watching TV.

A: Early research has shown that the non-readers are generally low in education,, low in income, either very young or very old. In addition, non-readers are more likely to live in rural areas and have less contact with neighbors and friends.

B: Woo, I am definitely not in that type. That's a kind of horrible lifestyle, no friends, no social contacts. I am not trying to isolate myself, by the way, I just have no time to read. I am always so busy.

A: I know that is your excuse. People like you always say they don't have the time, they prefer radio or TV, they have no interest in reading a tale and besides they think newspapers are too expensive. I am sure you do not fit the type I mentioned. You are high in income and rather intellectual. You know newspaper editors are desperate to win you people back and they are working hard to make the newspaper's content and format more attractive to you.

B: Oh, I don't think so. Maybe I can try some thing new and see if they are improving. But you know, only when I am not so busy and my TV doesn't work any more.

A: seriously, you should restart reading. Just spend sometime on it and you will find actually you are not losing time by doing that, you are enriching your life in a wonderful way. That's why I love reading and I never get such a feeling in TV programs.
