___ 1. To remember the term accurate fasciculus, think of “The ark you ate was fastidious.”
___ 2. To remember my sister’s new address, 1492 Scenic Boulevard, I think, “In 1482 Columbus had beautiful scenery when he sailed the ocean”
___ 3. I need to buy eggs, coffee, orange juice, ham, and a chicken. My way of remembering this is “I wake up, have some coffee, go outside and get some eggs from our chickens and pick a few oranges from the tree to make juice. I look over at the pigs and feel sorry for them because soon they’ll be made into ham, which I can have for breakfast.”
___ 4. You are a waiter at a hamburger restaurant and there are five customers. The oldest is at the head of the table. They all order burgers and shakes. In order of how they are seated, they want their burgers cooked rare, rare, well done, medium, and rare. You think of a graph with a level line that rises sharply to a peak and then declines slowly.
___ 5. You are the same waiter at the same table as above. The customers order milkshakes: a medium strawberry, a large vanilla, a large chocolate, a small chocolate, and a medium chocolate. You remember this by thinking “must lava latch smatcho and rnecho” where the beginning of each word is the size and the second syllable is the flavor.
