Read the passage then answer the questions: (August, 2005)



Some people say they have no memory at all. But of course we
all have a memory. Our



memory tells us who we are and helps us to make use in the
present of what we have learnt in



 the past. In fact we
have different types of memory. For example, our visual memory helps us



 recall faces and
places. Some people have a strong visual memory, they can remember exactly



what they have seen, for example, pages of a book, as a
complete picture.



Our verbal memory helps us remember words and figures we may
have heard but not seen or



written: items of a shopping list, a chemical formula, dates
or recipe. With our emotional memory,



we recall situations or places where we had strong  feelings, perhaps of happiness or



unhappiness. We also have special memories for smell, taste,
touch and sound, and for



performing physical movements.



     We have two ways
of storing any of these memories.Our short-term memory stores items



for up to thirty seconds. Our long-term memory, on the other
hand, may store items for a



 lifetime. Older
people in fact have a much better long-term memory than short-term. They may



forget what they have done only a few hours ago, but have
the clearest remembrance of when



 they were very young.
You might assume that the more we remember the better. In fact,



forgetting is as important as remembering. If we remember
all our unhappy times, we would



become mentally ill.
