Passage 51
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memoryworks in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot wri
te them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

Passage 52
Fish hear sounds, though they have simply no ears outside their bodies. However, fish do have ears inside their bodies, near the brain, and they hear very well with them. Some fish have been taught to recognize the difference between sounds better than some human beings do.
Many underwater animals make noises only by chance while they are doing something else. Other sounds are real communications of a simple sort, telling one fish of the presenceand direction of another. A few noises may be warning messages or discovery of food, etc. The earliest scientific report on fish sounds referred to one of these.
A new field in science is learning to recognize and use underwater birds and other land creatures by their calls. But this method is a greater challenge than bird-watching, for many of the animals of the sea cannot be followed in any other known way. Their voices cry for attention. Yet we still have too little knowledge about many of the call makers which will some day be made known more fully. It is as though the great oceans were for daring man to invadethem and to learn the secrets of the place from which his forefathers came so long ago.
