23、If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak．When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again．Everybody knows that．Yet（然而）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 （过错）．But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents should 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 things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook．They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is practicing all the time．So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people：practice remembering．

22、Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today．People didn’t have modern machines．There was no modern medicine, either．

Life today has brought new problems．One of the biggest is pollution． Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty． It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water． Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily．Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution．It’s bad for all the living things in the world．

Cars, planes and factories all polluted air so thick that it is like a quilt （被子）over a city．This kind of quilt is called smog（烟雾）．

Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution．Factories must now clean their water before it flows（流走）away, they mustn’t put dirty smoke into the air．

We need to do many other things．We can put waste things in the dustbin（垃圾桶）and not throw（扔） it on the ground．We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car．If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution．

Rules are not enough．Every person must help to fight against pollution．
