39、ise by around 20 feet. As a matter of fact, sea levels have risen about eight inches since 1880, three of which weve gained over the last 25 years.

Thats why it can be so difficult to remember something youve learned in one place when youre somewhere else. In an exam hall, for example, its harder to recall information than in the r

47、oom where you went over lessons.But its not all about location. Emotional context is equally important. When you revisit somewhere and it reminds you of how you felt in the past, those familiar feelings can bring everything else back.You dont even have to return physically. You can go there in your imagination and still enjoy reconnecting with your past (in exams, I used to “imagine“ myself back into my bedroom!).Try it now.
