How is your memory? Remembering things is one of the most important functions of our brain. If we can't remember how to do something, we can't live. _1_ They can be small or big—from where we left our car keys to how we walk. Maybe it's no surprise that sometimes we forget things.
Memory allows the brain to store and find information when needed. Our short-term memory can keep information for a short time, while our long-term memory can keep it for a long time. Our memory is amazing but why do we still forget things? _2_ It's true that if you don't do a task for a long time, it can be difficult to remember how to do it.
But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down. Did you go into a room to find something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? _3_ The psychologist Tom Stafford explains that this happens because we change both the physical and mental environments, moving to a different room and thinking about different things.
_4_ So we do need to keep our memory sharp by using it. For example, you can do activities that you do not usually do and change your daily habits. _5_ When trying to memorize something, you should pay attention to the most important things about it. Do not allow other thoughts to enter your mind because this will lower your chances of remembering things well.

B. Memory is important for our daily life.
C. Learning a new skill helps your brain develop.
D. There are so many things we have to remember.
E. It's maybe because memories fade (逐渐消失) over time.
