21、Some people have good memories and can learn very long articles by heart very easily. Maybe they read the articles just a few times, they will remember them by heart. Others can only remember things after hearing many times. Charles Dickens, a famous English writer, said he could remember every name of the shops after he walked by them. Many of the great men in the world have good memories.

A good memory can help people to learn a language well, especially (特别地) for students. Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he heard when he was a small child. Some children whose parents speak different languages seem to learn two languages as easily as one. In schools, it’s not easy to learn a foreign language, because students have so little time for it. At the same time they are busy with other lessons, too. Seeing, hearing, reading and speaking are the best ways of learning languages. As students, if we want to learn English well,we must practice listening, speaking, reading and writing as much as possible.

A man’s mind is just like a camera (照相机), but it takes photos of what we see. It can also take photos of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there’s much to do before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends. In the same way, there’s much work before we can keep a picture in our minds.
