READING A Memory A1 What do you know about memory? Discuss and say whether you agree (A) or disagree (D) with these statements. 1 When you get old, your memory gets better. 2 Making pictures in your mind helps you remember things. 3 A man with a good memory can remember everyone’s telephone number. 4 We remember things better if they happen to us suddenly and surprisingly. A2 Read through the five articles and check your answers to A1. Then think about the main idea of each passage. P1-2: We have a short-term and a long-term memory. When we get old, our short-term memory gets weaker. P3-4: A man lost his memory after an accident. 重点讲解 1. When people get old, their short-term memories get weaker, but they can still remember things from a long time ago. 人要是上了年纪，短 期的记忆就差多了，但依然记得起很久以前发生的事。 ① get old 意思是“老了；上年纪了”。此处的get是系动词 后接形容词作表语，表示“（状态、感情等）变得······”。例 如： get long / short 变长（短） get hot / cold / warm 变热（冷、暖和） get angry / upset 生气了（不高兴了） ② a long time ago 意思是“很久以前”，相当于long (time) ago 或 long long ago；常用于一般过去时。例如： The story happened a long time ago. 这个故事发生在很久以前。 巩固练习 （一）单词拼写。 1.
