There aretwo kinds of remembering, recall and recognition. For instance, you may not be able torecall the poem you read yesterday in class, but if you see it again, you will know itinstantly because you recognize it.Some few people have “total recall”, often spoken of as photographic memory. A personwith total recall can recite a whole page of a book he has read only once, or play amusical composition after hearing it once. This is very unusual, however, and mostpeople have difficulty in remembering even the names they heard the day before. This isnot because most people lack the ability to remember, but because they had not paidmuch attention to what they heard. They felt no personal reasons to remember. Having apersonal reason for remembering is one of the most important factors in a good memory.When you have a strong reason for remembering, concentrate as you read or listen, andtry to connect the new information to things you already know. A detail is easy toremember when it fits into a whole that makes sense. If you understand the entire historylesson before you try to remember any particular dates, your memory may surprise you.
