A trade school, sometimes also called a technical school, is one of the places you can go to after your graduation from your junior high. The purpose of this kind of school is to prepare the students for a good job in the future. The focus of learning is mainly on skills. 

There are several advantages of going to a trade school. Firstly, it takes you less time to complete. The length（长度）of almost all trade school programs is about two years. That not only allows you to get more job experience and progress faster in your work, but also helps to save money. If you can get out of school earlier, you pay less for it. 

Secondly, it is easier for you to find a job. Many four-year colleges spend more time teaching students knowledge than preparing them for jobs. But at a trade school, the focus is on learning the skills that you’ll be using in your job when you graduate. For example, if you graduate with a degree in history, you may have difficulty finding a job that really interests you. But once you complete a car repairing program, you can easily find a job to repair cars. 

Thirdly, the jobs you can get with a trade school degree often pay well. According to trustful information, on the whole a trade school graduate makes much more money than a four-year college graduate. 

Finally, it is easier for you to have a place in a trade school. You have to do really well in the test to go to a good university. But it requires much lower grades to go to a trade school. It saves you a lot of time, energy and trouble.

Memory is very important. It helps you remember who you are, where you live, what you have learnt and what you plan to do in the future. 

Some scientists believe that there are three types of memory—immediate, short-term and long-term. 

Immediate memory holds information for less than a second, e.g. the name of a road you have just seen. Then it either forgets it or passes it into short-term memory. Short-term memory can hold about seven items of information at a time, e.g. telephone numbers. It holds them for about 30 seconds. Then it either forgets them or passes them into long-term memory. Long-term memory can hold information for the whole of our lives, e.g. the names of countries or the meanings of words. 

So, how can you improve your memory? 

It is important to exercise your brain. For example, you can do new things and change your daily habits. If you walk a different way to school or take a different bus, you will keep your brain active. You can try to memorize something new. You can try a Maths puzzle（益智游戏）. You can also try to learn new skills or study a foreign language. Your brain gets lots of regular exercise if you do any of these things. 

If you live a healthy life, your memory will work better. You must have a balanced diet（均衡的饮食）. You must give your brain enough time to rest. Unless you get enough sleep every night, you will not remember things well. 

If you want your brain to work well, you also need to relax. If you get too worried, your brain will slow down, and your memory will become less excellent. 

So, to improve your memory, you should exercise your brain, live a healthy life and stay relaxed.
