Location is key
位置是关键
Quite a common experience is for context to mess with memory in quite a severe way.
在某种情景下记忆力严重混乱是一个非常普遍的体验。
For instance, you’re in the kitchen, and you think “I must get my raincoat from the bedroom” and you head upstairs. Once there, you can’t remember what you came for.
比如，你在厨房，想着“我要到卧室里拿雨衣”，然后你上了楼。可以一到那儿，你就记不起来你为什么上来了。
You return downstairs, and immediately remember. You head upstairs, and again can’t remember what you were looking for.
你转头下了楼梯，突然之间你又记起来了。你又上楼，接着你又记不起来你到底要找什么了。
The trick is to imagine what you’re looking for in the location you’re headed to. That way the new context will contain the memory of what you were looking for.
办法就是你得想象你到你要去的那个位置到底找什么。如此一来，新的情景中就会包含你在寻找何物的记忆。

Train your brain
练你的大脑
To keep the memory sharp, the same thing’s required that will keep the mind sharp generally.
保持记忆力的敏捷，同保持思维的敏锐所要求具备的东西是一样的。
Lots of stimulation, keeping mentally active, learning new things.
频繁的刺激，保持思维活跃，学习新事物。
Whether it’s doing the daily cross-word, conversing on difficult subjects, learning a language,
不论是做每日的字谜游戏，讨论困难的议题，学习外语,
or simply doing an interesting manual task, keeping active is at the heart of mental health, and the sine qua non of keeping on top of memory as you age.
或是仅仅是去做一项有趣的手工，保持活跃是思维健康的核心，也是保持你所属年纪最佳记忆力的必要条件。
