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 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(机会) to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know hat 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 and they have to remember thing, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering things in a way as other people do.1.

As a result, at the end of the warthere were many orphans(孤儿) there. A man called Hermann Gmeiner wanted to help these children. His idea was simple. He wanted orphans to have a home, and he wanted them to have the care and kindness of parents. Gmeiner asked people to give him some money. With this money he built the first SOS Children’s Village at Imst, in Austria. It opened in 1949. This is how the SOS Children’s Village started. The letters SOS stand for “Save Our Souls(灵魂).” This means “Please help us!”. An SOS Children’s Village gives help to orphans.Hermann Gmeiner’s idea for helping orphans soon spread(传播) all over the world. By 1983 there were 170 SOS Children’s Villages in the world. People in many countries gi ve money to help the villages. Today the children from the first village are grown up. Now some of them work in other SOS Children’s Villages.In SOS Villages orphans live in family groups. There are several houses in each village. The biggest villages have 40 or 50 houses! Between seven and ten children live in a house. A woman lives with each group of children and looks after them. She gives the children a lot of love and kindness. She cooks for them and makes comfortable(舒适的), happy home for them.Of course, the children don’t spend all their time in the village.
