Put Your Memory to Work

Has this ever happened to you? You think of something funny, so you wave at your friends to get their attention. Then they come up to you and ask, "What's up?" Suddenly, you don't remember what you wanted to say. You worry that you might have a memory problem, but in fact, it's just how your brain works.

To put it simply, when information gets into your brain, it is first stored in your working memory. However, to keep your brain tidy, your working memory can only hold five to nine items at the same time for about twenty seconds. After that, they'll be either forgotten or saved for later use.

"Then how do I make sure the important information is saved?" you might ask. One good way is to keep reviewing it. Studies have shown that the more the information is repeated or used, the longer you'll remember it. What's more, try grouping the information. It's true that your working memory can't hold many items, but if you group them, it'll be easier to remember them. For example, it might be hard for you to remember these letters, "p-a-c-k-a-g-e." However, if you group them into two sets: "pack" and "age," then it's easier to remember the word "package."

Finally, when you try to remember something, it helps to make pictures in your mind. For example, to remember how long a yard is, you can create a picture of three "feet" that connect together.

Your memory is important in your daily life. When you're learning a language, doing math, or even chatting with friends, you have to count on your memory. Understanding how it works can be helpful for not only tests but also everything in life.

運用你的記憶

這事曾發生在你身上嗎？你想到了某件好笑的事情，所以你朝你的朋友們揮手以取得他們的注意。接著他們向你走來，並問道：「怎麼了？」突然間，你不記得你剛剛要說什麼。你擔心自己是不是記憶出了問題，但其實這就是你的大腦運作的方式。

簡單來說，當資訊進入你的大腦時，會先被儲存在你的工作記憶中。然而，為了將大腦維持得井然有序，你的工作記憶只能同時容納五至九個品項約二十秒的時間。在那之後，它們不是會被遺忘，就是會被儲存起來以備之後使用。

你可能會問：「那麼我要怎麼確認重要的資訊有被儲存起來呢？」不斷地複習那資訊就是一個好方法。研究指出，當資訊被重複使用得越多，你會記得它越久。此外，試著將資訊群集在一起。雖然你的工作記憶不能容納太多品項是事實，但是如果你將它們群集，它們會更容易記。例如，要記住這些字母「p、a、c、k、a、g、e」對你來說可能很難。然而，如果你將它們組成兩組：「pack」和「age」，那麼就更加容易記住「package」這個字。

最後，當你想記得某項東西時，在你的腦中形成圖像是有幫助的。例如，要記得一碼有多長，你可以在腦中想像三個「腳」連在一起的畫面。

你的記憶在你的日常生活中很重要。當你在學習語言、算數學，或甚至跟朋友聊天時，你都必須仰賴你的記憶。理解記憶是如何運作的，不管對考試還是生活中的每件事都有所幫助。
