Section A, 2b and 2c
Billy: Professor,
I don’t quite understand what you said about linking knowledge.
Professor: Well, knowledge is like a chain,
and new knowledge
is best remembered by linking it with old knowledge.
The more links you create, the more you remember.
Fu Xing: Professor,
I often get some words mixed up, like “kitchen” and “chicken”.
Professor: Pay attention to details. Study how they are different from
each other. You can also create a picture for each word in your mind.
Peter: Hello, Professor, could you tell me why it is much easier
to forget things to buy than to forget how to ride a bike?
Professor: Scientists are still working on this mystery.
For one thing, the memory of how to ride a bike is probably
stored in a more stable area of our brain.
Peter: There are so many mysteries about our brain!
Professor: Exactly! And at your age, your brain is developing fast,
so put it to good use!

Work in groups. Discuss the questions.
1. How can you link new knowledge with old knowledge?
Give an example.
I find similar points between new knowledge and old knowledge.
For example, when learning the new word “stable”, I link it with “stay”. If something is stable, it can stay in one place without changing.
2. When should you pay attention to details?
to study how two words are different
to note down the main points of a lecture
to retell a story well
to remember what someone looks like
