In my science and math classes, I always have to memorize lists of things for science
and all kinds of math formulas. Since my memory is not that great, I’ve had to learn ways

to improve my memory. Maybe you could benefit from some of the tips that I’ve picked
up for memorizing things. Or maybe you already do these things anyway. Of course, the

first rule of memorizing something is to repeat it in your mind. For example, the first day
of class, sometimes the teacher will ask all the students to introduce themselves. I use this
class time as a chance to exercise my memory skills. As we go around the room, I try to

memorize each student’s name by repeating his or her name to myself. Most of the time,
by the end of the class, I’ve memorized everyone’s name. Another trick I have learned for
memorizing things is to build on small pieces in order to learn longer things. This idea

comes from the fact that a person’s short term memory can only hold eight or nine pieces
of information at a time. So those pieces of information in short term memory have to be
moved to long term memory by repeating them again and again before more information

can go into short term memory.

44.What is the main idea of this passage?

(A) Ways of memorizing things
(B) Learning experiences in science classes
(C) The importance of short term memory

(D) The importance of memorizing names

45. According to the passage, how many pieces of information can a person’s short term

memory hold at most?
(A) Four or five (B) Eight or nine
(C) Eleven or twelve (D) Six or seven
