问题 根据以下材料回答以下题:
    Most episodes of absent—mindedness—forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a roomare caused by a simple lack of attention,says Schacter.“You’re supposed to remember something,but you haven’t encoded it deeply.”
    Encoding,Schacter explains,is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later.Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations.If you put your mobile phone in a pocket,for example,and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved in a conversation,you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe(衣柜).“Your memory itself isn’t failing you,”says Schacter.“Rather,you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”
    Lack of interest can also lead to absent.mindedness.“A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago,”says Zelinski,“may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.”Women have slightly better memories than men,possibly because they pay more attention to their environment,and memory relies on just that.
    Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness,says Schacter.“But be sure the cue is clear and available,”he cautions.If you want to remember to take a medication(药物)with lunch,put the pill bottle on the kitchen table—don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write vourseIf a note that you keep in a pocket.
    Another common episode of absent—mindedness:walking into a room and wondering why you’re there.Most likely,you were thinking about something else.“Everyone does this from time to time”,says Zelinski.The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room,and you’ll likely remember.
Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important?

选项 A、It helps us understand our memory system better.
B、It enables us to recall something form our memory.
C、It expands our memory capacity considerably.
D、It slows down the process of losing our memory.

答案B

解析 细节题。根据第二段第一句可知encoding可以使我们回忆起发生过的事件,其原理是对发生事件加以特殊关注,在四个选项中只有B选项与原文意思一致。
