     If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how "foolish" the Finnish
people are.
     Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare (車費) of two
US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you
have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver will not show the
least sign of anxiety.
     The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside eaters. Hotel guests
have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining room to have their meals. The only thing they
need to do is to wave their room cards to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old
room card to take a couple of friends to eat dinner free of charge.
     The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed
with the boss on the payment. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will
be paid accordingly.
     With so many loopholes (漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to
take "small advantages". But the strange thing is: all the taxi passengers will always come back to pay their
fare after they have dealt with their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining
room; and workers always give an honest answer of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on
good trust in everything they do, living in such a society has tumed everyone into a real "gentleman".

There are many things you can do to improve your memory. Among them are many kinds of useful ways as well as taking special care of your health.

(1)It is _______ that you make ________ excited to make your memory more active. You can do this by doing some new activities and by changing your daily habits. Learning a new skill helps your brain(大腦)to develop. When trying to remember something, you should pay special attention to the most important things about it. Do not allow other thoughts to enter your mind because this will reduce your chances of making right memories.

An excellent way to help memory is to connect information with pictures. Try to see the pictures in your mind. Taking notes and keeping a diary will also be helpful.

(3)Healthy food and plenty of vitamins are necessary for your memory to work well. Drinking a lot of water also helps keep your memory. You must allow your brain to have enough sleep and rest. When you are asleep, your brain stores memory. Not enough sleep can cause problems with storing information. And being tired will also stop you from being able to think clearly and well.

In order to keep your mind on your work, you must be free-from worry. Generally keeping fit and normal health checks are both important as well-not just for improving your memory.
