Changes in a city
Sta. Catalina has seen many changes over the past 100 years. The small town was once a quiet rural community, but has now grown into a bustling urban center with a population of over 200,000 residents. Modern buildings, roads, and infrastructure now cover the landscape where farms and open fields once dominated the area.
Evolution of the city of palma
The city of Palma has evolved over time with three distinct sets of walls - the original Roman walls, followed by medieval walls as the city grew larger, and more recently modern walls as the city expanded even further beyond the medieval boundaries.
Life on planet teen
The author struggles to keep track of their teenagers' constantly changing plans and whereabouts. Their teenagers are unable or unwilling to provide clear information about their schedules and activities. This leaves the author feeling anxious and wondering where their children are at all times. Modern technology like mobile phones has made plans even more flexible, as arrangements can be changed at the last minute through text messages. The author feels they cannot truly know what their teenagers are doing unless they constantly check in via text. In the end, the author realizes teenagers value freedom and spontaneity over strict planning.
How well do you know your neighbours
British people are becoming increasingly isolated from their local communities, with more than half not knowing their neighbors' first names. About 70% do not know their full names and just over a third wouldn't recognize them. Less than a third would consider their neighbors friends. Londoners were found to be the most apathetic about neighbors, with 82% not knowing what their neighbors did for work. This isolation is due to people moving homes more frequently, spending less time communicating face-to-face, and being more cautious about who they welcome into their homes. The lack of familiarity between neighbors has implications, as people may be less willing or able to look out for each other.
People
Humans are a type of animal that live in large social groups and use tools and language. They have a more advanced brain than other species and are the dominant life form on Earth. Humans have a complex culture and society and are the only extant species known to build vehicles, cities, and other large structures.
Debating
The document outlines the key components of a parliamentary debate. It explains that parliamentary debates involve two teams, one supporting a motion and one opposing it. Each team gives two 5-minute constructive speeches and one 3-minute rebuttal speech. During speeches, other debaters can ask questions or make statements through points of information that the speaking debater can accept or reject. Arguments presented must include an assertion, reasoning, and evidence. Successful refutations follow the formula of stating the other side's position, disagreeing with it, providing a reason why, and concluding with a therefore statement.
Writing a summary
Computers have become essential for businesses both large and small. They can retrieve information in less than a second that would take a person several hours, allowing banks, airlines and restaurants to rely heavily on them. Additionally, computers can store large amounts of data in a small space, reducing the need for storage equipment like file cabinets in offices.
Article 7
Sleep strengthens and stabilizes memory in important ways. While awake, your ability to recall newly learned skills or facts can deteriorate over time, but sleep reverses this effect for skills and stabilizes performance. Sleep also improves memory for word pairs compared to an equal period being awake. However, information learned in the morning is more susceptible to being permanently forgotten than information learned in the evening, so studying at night optimizes the memory benefits of sleep.
Article 6
Nancy Colier argues that smartphones may be replacing human memory and disconnecting us from our physical surroundings and environment. She provides examples of getting lost without remembering directions and relying solely on navigation from a smartphone. Thoreau previously warned about overreliance on clocks replacing awareness of the sun's position. Now, people have little awareness of how time relates to nature. Most people stare at smartphone screens instead of noticing their environment. Relying only on smartphones risks losing a sense of interdependence with the world and others. It is important to notice our surroundings for safety, new experiences, and remembering our connection to the planet and life forms we depend on.
Article 5
Working memory refers to the information that can be consciously held in mind and relates to intelligence. Researchers tested whether working memory training could increase children's working memory capacity and IQ scores. The results showed that children who underwent 10 minutes of daily working memory training for two months improved more on intelligence tests than children who did not receive training. Studies on adults also found that working memory training led to increases in working memory capacity and IQ scores. Certain games, music, and education can help expand working memory capacity by providing mental challenges and rewards.
Article 4
1. The document provides strategies for improving memory, including becoming interested in what you're learning, leveraging visual memory through creative imagery, creating a "memory tree" to logically chunk and relate facts, associating new information with existing knowledge, writing facts out repeatedly, summarizing paragraphs while reading, studying in the afternoon, and getting adequate sleep.
2. It notes that normal age-related "benign forgetfulness" usually does not indicate increased risk of dementia, though formal testing may be needed in some cases, and cognitive impairments beyond memory loss carry higher risk.
3. Memory can also be impaired by an inability to concentrate due to multitasking, depression, or anxiety, as concentration strengthens memory
Article 3
The document discusses techniques for improving observation and memory. It recommends actively engaging your senses and imagination when meeting new people to help commit names and faces to memory. Specific techniques included asking questions about a person's face, saying their name aloud several times, and paying close attention for 10 seconds. Regular practice paying attention and allowing your mind to wander can help you learn to better control your attention.
Article 2
Many common beliefs about how memory works are inaccurate. Memory is not like a video recorder that perfectly records events. People also do not have truly photographic memories or eidetic imagery. Contrary to popular belief, most forgetting occurs immediately after an event rather than gradually. Confidence in a memory is a poor indicator of its accuracy. Traumatic memories are generally not repressed and recovered later through therapy. Hypnosis does not reliably aid recall of forgotten memories. Amnesia typically only affects new memories, not long-term identity and autobiographical memories.
Article 1
- Memories decay quickly after being formed, so it is important to continuously review information through spaced repetition to strengthen memories over long periods of time. The ideal time to review is just before the memory would be forgotten.
- Actively testing memories through retrieval practice, such as answering questions, is more effective for long-term memory than passive reviewing. When information is incorrectly recalled, the wrong answer can be strengthened through rehearsal, so care must be taken.
- If a memory cannot be recalled, thinking of related context clues and components can help "reactivate" the full memory and retrieve the sought-after information.
