Accuplacer Reading Comprehension

1. In the words of Thomas De Quincey, "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 have 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

effective this technique is and probably recall those

names for the rest of your life.

The quotation from De Quincey indicates that the memory

B. breaks down under great strain

C. improves if it is used often

D. becomes unreliable if it tires: C

This passage is primarily about
