Memory

A. Try to imagine life without memory. It would be impossible. You couldn't use a language, because you wouldn't remember the words. You couldn’t understand a film, because you need to hold the first part of the story in your mind in order to understand the later parts. You wouldn't be able to recognize anyone — even members of your own family. You would live in a permanent present. You would have no past and you wouldn't be able to imagine a future.

B. Human beings have amazing memories. Apart from all our personal memories about our own lives, we can recall between 20 000 and 100 000 words in our own language as well as possibly thousands more in a foreign language. We have all sorts of information about different subjects such as history, science and geography, and we have complex skills such as driving a car or playing a musical instrument. All these things and countless others depend on our memory.

C. How well you remember things depends on many different factors. Firstly, some people naturally have better memories than others, in just the same way as some people are taller than others or have different color eyes. Some top chess players, for example, can remember every more of every game
that they have ever seen or played.

D. Secondly, research shows that different things are stored in different parts of the brain. Ideas, words and numbers are stored in the left-hand side, while the right-hand side remembers images, sounds and smells. In most people one side of the brain is more developed than the other, and this may explain why some people can remember people's faces easily but can't remember their names.

E. Thirdly, we all remember exciting, frightening or dramatic events more easily. This is because these experiences produce chemicals such as adrenaline, which boost your memory. They say that anyone who is old enough
to remember knows exactly where they were on the day when radio and TV told the shocking news that the President of the USA John F. Kennedy had been killed.
