Some people seem to have extraordinary (非凡的）memories. Zheng Aiqiang, a “memory athlete” on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!
You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the US and the Netherlands, the brain structures（結(jié)構(gòu)）of ordinary people and 23 of the world's leading memory athletes show no difference.
That's because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron (神經(jīng)元期刊) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.
Researchers found that technique (技巧）called loci, invented by ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory. By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brain's memory networks. You can link（關(guān)聯(lián)）something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be handle（把手）on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.
In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 words. First they could only remember 26 of them. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.
“Not everyone can become a memory champion. But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level they're at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.
（1）Is Super Brain a TV show?

（2）Who was loci invented by?

（3）How can you remember more words in twenty minutes according to Paragraph 5?

（4）Is loci helpful to you? Why or why not?

The timer is running. These people have 60 minutes to escape (逃脫) from a room they paid to be locked inside.
It is a game with clues (線索) that are spread in the room. And there is no starting point. You start wherever you feel like. It is up to you to put the clues together in order to find the key to get out.
A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House. It is built like the office of the American president. The fun part of Escape the Oval Office is that anything here could be a clue to solving the puzzle. An old typewriter from the 1930s. Or the small table in the corner. Or the map of Washington D.C. on the wall. And then there are hidden messages that can only be seen under a black light.
Sometimes, the telephone rings. “Would you guys like a clue?” The boss controls the game progress on a camera and calls to offer hints (提示) when needed.
Teams can be made up of classmates, families, tourists, or a group of six friends and two strangers who just meet before the game starts.
It's said that there are more than 800 Escape Room adventures in Washington D.C.. Each experience has different themes and stories. The rules for playing are similar, and solving the puzzle needs social, physical abilities and quick, creative thinking.
It was a little stressful. Some of the clues seemed really complex (復(fù)雜的). But it was a lot of fun, and the players had no idea what to expect.
