Mind Maps
Mind maps are a great way of showing a picture of information that you need to learn. You
can use mind maps for all kinds of learning. They work very well for vocabulary when you are
learning a new language.
1 Draw a circle in the middle of the page and write the vocabulary subject in the middle. For
example:

transport
2
Brainstorm
some
word
groups
for
‘transport’
and
think
of
he
adings
for
each
one.
For
example:
sea transport
land transport
C. $$160.
D. $$200.
air transport
For each one, draw a short line from the centre circle outwards. Add another circle and write
the new group word in the middle.
3 Look at each group and try to add more groups. Fo
r example, in ‘land transport’ there are
two sub-groups;
●road

●rail

Draw two more lines, add two more circles and write the two new headings inside them.
4 When you can’t make any new groups, add a line for each word you know. Write the words
along the lines or, if you have space, write them inside more circles.
5 As you learn new vocabulary, add it to the mind map.
6 To make the mind maps even better, use colour to show important ideas or parts of the map.


28. The instructions above mainly show us __________.
A. what mind maps are




















B. how to draw mind maps
C. what mind maps can do
29. What can we learn about mind maps?

Sarah stood in front of the mirror(
镜子
). “It looks like a raincoat on me,” she said.

“Perhaps the blue,” said Mama, gently.

“Sure,” the shopkeeper said. But when he took the blue coat, there on the shelf behind all of
the dark coats, hidden like a spring flower in winter darkness, there, as if by magic, was a pink
coat.
“A pink coat!” Sarah cried. “I want the pink coat.”

“That coat is smaller than the other ones,” Papa said.

Sarah spoke up. “I’m small, too. Papa, please let me try it on, Mama? Please?”

“It wouldn’t hurt to let her try it on,”
Mama said.
Without a word, the shopkeeper took the coat from the shelf and held it for Sarah.
“Ohhh!” Sarah said. The coat was smooth and shiny inside like her sister Sylvia’s blouses.
“Ahhh!”

Sarah stood very straight and looked in the mirror. She looked for a very long time. In the
pink coat she looked like a spring flower.
“Sarah!” Mama said.

Sarah looked up. Mama was standing behind her. She was holding the brown coat.
“I’m afraid the pink coat will only fit one year,” Mama said, taking a step closer.

“And there’s no one to pass it on to,” said Papa.

And the shopkeeper said, “It’s wise to save money.”

Sarah backed away. No one was going to put her into a raincoat again. She wanted to be a
flower.
“Sarah!”
It
was
Papa.
He
came
over
to
her.
“You’re
old
enough
to
know
that
you
can’t
always have your own way,” he said seriously.

“Wise and true,” said the shopkeeper.

Sarah took off the pink coat, slowly.
“It is her colour, though,” Mama said.

“Ahh,” said the shopkeeper. “Anyone can see how the pink of the coa
t brings out the roses in
her face.”

Papa looked thoughtful for a moment.
