11、sands of random numbers in under anhour,state that they just have normal brains.Some memory superstars compete in Olympic-like World MemoryChampionships.These mental athletes,or MAs for short,can memorize names of dozens of strangers in a few minutesor any poem handed them.Ed Cooke,a 24-year-old MA,

12、explains they see themselves as participants rescuing thelong-lost art of memory training.These techniques existed not to recall useless information,but to cut into the brainbasic text and ideas.A study in the journal Nature examined eight people who finished near the top of the World MemoryChampion

13、ships.The scientists examined whether their brains were fundamentally different from everyone elses orwhether they were simply making better use of memorizing abilities we all possess.They put the MAs and controlsubjects into brain scanners and had them memorize numbers and photographs.The result su

14、rprised everyone.Thebrains of the MAs and those of the control subjects were indistinguishable.On every test,the MAs scored in the normalrange.However,when the scientists examined what part of the brain was used during a memory activity,they found theMAs relied more heavily on areas in the brain inv

17、in and again,usually aloud.Today we read extensively,usually only once and without continuous focus.So the great difference is the ability to create impressive pictures in mind and to do it quickly.Using memorypalaces,MAs create memorized pictures.For example,recombine the pictures to form unforgett

18、able scenes such as theways through a town.One competitor used his own body parts to help him memorize a 57,000-word dictionary.Anyone who wishes to train the mind needs first to create fantastical palaces in the imagination.Then they shouldcut each building into cubbyholes for memories.In a short a

19、mount of time,they will notice improvement withremembering things.To keep the skill sharp,MAs deliberately empty their palaces after competitions,so they can reusethem and they recommend that beginners do the same.1、We can learn from P aragraph 2 that a mental a t h l e t e.A.owns a brain that is la
