When you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again，they will slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory(记忆)works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps practicing his memory by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错).But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed(责备)，and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write but they have to remember things;they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memories are being exercised the whole time.

So if you want to have a good memory, learn from those people:practice remembering things in a way as other people do.

Mary was waiting for the airplane to take off. She was happy to get a seat by herself. Just then, an air hostess came up to her and asked，"Would you mind changing your seat? A man would like to sit with his wife." The only available seat was next to a girl with her arms broken, a black-and-blue face and a sad expression. "I don't want to sit there," Mary thought immediately. But a soft voice spoke, "She needs help." Finally, Mary moved to that seat.
The girl was named Emily. She had been in a car accident and now was on her way for treatment.
When the snack and juice arrived, Mary realized that Emily could not feed herself. Mary considered offering to feed her but hesitated(犹像), as it seemed too impolite to offer service to a stranger. But then Mary realized that Emily's need was more important. Mary offered to help her eat. Although Emily was uncomfortable to accept, she agreed. They became closer and closer in a short time. By the end of the five-hour trip, Mary's heart had warmed, and the time was really better spent than if she had just sat by herself.
Mary was very glad that she had sat next to Emily and fed her. Love sometimes goes beyond human borders (边界)and removes the fears that keep people away. When we reach out to other people, we grow to live in alarger and more rewarding world.
