  Most animals protect (保护) their young until they are old enough to take care of themselves. A fish that swims in the rivers of South America protects its young in a very strange way. This fish, a kind of catfish, uses its mouth to keep its babies from danger.

  When this catfish lays (产卵) its eggs, it carries them in its mouth. From what we know, it does not eat during this time. After the eggs hatch (孵化), the fish swims with its young to protect them. It opens its mouth when danger appears (出现), and the tiny (极小的) fish swim inside. They swim out only when it is safe again.

阅读下面短文,按要求完成文后各题。

  Read the passage about ways to help you remember information (信息). Match (匹配) the techniques (方法) with pictures 1-6.

Revision techniques

  It's one thing to study, but another to actually remember the information. Have you tried these techniques?

  a A mnemonic is a way of remembering a list of items (项目) by finding a word which contains (包括) the first letter of each. For example, to remember the names of the five Great Lakes of America-Huron, Ontario, Erie, Michigan and Superior-take the first letter of each and re-order them to make the word HOMES. Now every time you need to remember the names of the lakes, just think of lots of homes by a lake!

  b Why not make up tapes of things you have to remember and listen to them on the way home from school, when you're cleaning your teeth, or even when you're sleeping?

  c Little rhymes and chants help you to remember all kinds of information. For example, if you want to remember the spelling of the word beautiful, you can learn this chant:

  Mr. B, Mr. E, Mr. A-U-T, Mr. I, Mr. F-U-L!

  d Make up some question and answer cards, and play a quiz (知识竞赛) game with your friends. Add new questions every time you play it.

  e Try putting your different revision notes on different coloured paper.

  f Bombardment is a way of constantly(不断地) reminding (提醒) yourself of facts. Draw huge multicoloured fact charts (示意图) and posters (大画片) for Science, History, Geography, and any other subject where there are a lot of facts to learn. Stick (粘贴) them everywhere-inside your bedroom door, on your wardrobe (衣柜), in the kitchen.

1.________  2.________  3.________

4.________  5.________  6.________
