Admit you don’t know.
Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy(同情) if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue(一时想不起来). What is it again?”
Use associations(联想).
Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng-tall, black hair.” To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.
Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.
When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.
Go early.
Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others -- an automatic(自动的) review for you.
63. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?
A. They will be moved.
B. They will be happy.
