In the words of Thomas DeQuincy, "It is notorious that the memory strengthens as you lay burdens upon it." If, like most people,

you have trouble recalling the names of those you just met, try this: the next time you are introduced, plan to remember the names. Say to yourself, "I'll listen carefully; I'll repeat each person's name to be sure I've got it, and I will remember." You'll discover how effective this technique is and probably recall those names for the rest of your life. The passage suggests that people remember names best when they:
A) meet new people.
B) are intelligent.
C) decide to do so.
D) are interested in people.

Answer:

C) decide to do so.

Explanation:

According to the passage, Thomas DeQuincy indicates that if you push your memory enough, it will be possible to remember people's names. It requires some effort, but it is not impossible, and the results may be quite surprising. Most of the times it is not about a lack of interest, it just happens because this information goes unnoticed.

Which detail best supports the inference that Atalanta will let Hippomenes win the race? "It would be a great pity if he should
Sati [7]

Answer:

"He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her."

Explanation:

The Greek mythology of Atalanta tells the story of the human huntress who was so adamant about being victorious over everyone and staying unmarried forever. But when Hippomenes came and participated in the competition for her hand in marriage, she 'intentionally' let him win so as to be married to him.

In the given excerpt, Atlanta was kept distracted by Hippomenes by using the three magical golden apples given by Aphrodite. Though distracted by the golden apples, she was also a bit interested in Hippomenes that she did not mind letting him win. She observed,<em> "He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her." </em>

Thus, the correct answer to the question is the third option.
