One day a famous teacher was walking with his student. On the way, they saw a lake. They stopped and the teacher told the student, “I’m thirsty. Get me some water from that lake.”
Just when the student reached the lake, a cow was walking in the lake. So the water became very dirty. He thought, “I can’t give the dirty water to my teacher!”
He came back and told the teacher, “The water is very dirty. We can’t drink it.” After about half an hour, the teacher asked the student to get some water again. So he went back to the lake.
But the lake was still dirty. So he told the teacher the same thing. After some time, the teacher asked him to go back again. But this time, he found the water was clear. The mud (泥) in the water came to the bottom. So he got some water.
The teacher looked at the water and said to him, “You did nothing to make the water clear. You just let it be... Your mind is also like that! When it is bothered (被打扰), just let it be. Give it some time.”

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice 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. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us may think that his parents are to blame. Few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write, but they usually have better memories? This is because they can't read or write and they can’t write things down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories. In this way their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, practice remembering things in a way as other people do.
1. Memory has very much to do with strong arms and legs.2. The more you use your arms and legs, the stronger they will be.
3. The reason for one's poor memory is that his parents have poor memory.

When I was at middle school, I have a nice classmate, that was the first foreigner I had ever met. She was friendly and very pretty. She was good in three languages, although he was born in China. It was interested that her father was a Frenchman while her mother came from England. All of them were teaching at a university at that time. She was crazy collecting stamps, listening to pop music, as well as playing the football. Her dream was to be an engineer, so she usually studied harder to achieve it. She often told funny stories in English to make us laughing. We all liked her.
