摘要
在12到24小时内大多数人会忘记刚学的东西。如果你现在正在阅读这篇文章．到明天很可能你就不记得了。大脑就象一个巨大的搜索引擎，你插入一条新信息，就会进入一个叫短期记忆的贮存堆。如果要回忆这条信息，大脑就尝试从贮存堆搜寻你要的信息。这过程异步发生，你第一次记忆一首歌名后，几小时后还常记得就是这原因。
Most people forget what they＇ve just learnt within 12 and 24 hours. If you are reading this article now, chances are that tomorrow you＇ll not even remember it. Our brain works like a big search engine, when you insert a new piece of information, it goes on a big stack called short term memory. When you want to remember that information, your brain will try to search inside that stack for the information you requested. This process happens asynchrony that＇s why you often remember a title of a song after many hours from your first attempt.
