As a result, we remember them much better, as retelling events helps fix experiences in our memories. 第一次 n. 激动，兴奋 一次又一次 结果 fix sth in one’s memories:牢记某事 A. What can we learn from all this? When remembering something new, try to connect it to our emotions. It is important to connect it with what we already know.

Yet, there are some people who do have amazing memories.

This means timely review during this period, with a few revisits to what is learnt, can significantly help us to remember the information. C. So take it easy.
