有间隔的反复检索对学习知识的重要性（中英双语）The importance of interval retrieval to learning

在认知天这本性书中，作者提到，练习从记忆中检索新知识和新技能，是有效的学习工具，也是保持长久记忆的有力武器。而且在检索所学知识时付出的努力越大,检索就会更好地强化你的所学。因此，有时间间隔的延迟检索比立即检索效果更好。当你对所学知识有一点点遗忘的时候，这个时刻做检索效果会是更好的。而且反复检索，会让所学的知识在脑海中不断的加强，让记忆更持久。

以上说到了检索对于学习的重要性。其实它的原理，与东尼布赞在《启动大脑》一书中说的是一样的。当你学习新知识的时候，就好比在森林里开拓一条新的路。从没有路到走出一条路来，第一次去走会非常的困难，第二次第三次又更容易一点，走的人多了，走的次数多了，这条路便会越来越宽敞、平坦，最终形成一条大路。学习也一样，最初学习的时候，由于是全新的概念，要花大力气去理解，因此会感觉到特别艰难。当有了第一次的初步理解的基础之后，第二次第三次去检索复习，就会觉得越来越容易了。而且当设置一定的间隔去检索，就像这条路又重新长出了一些杂草，你又要花力气去除掉这些杂草和障碍。那么当你花大力气把这些杂草出去以后，你的开拓能力就增强了，经过一次一次的开拓，这条路最后变得更加的宽敞、平坦了。这就是为什么要设置一定的时间间隔来检索。这也是在不断的锻炼大脑的检索能力，同时大脑中的学习通路一次次地被拓宽了。

The importance of interval retrieval to learning

In the book MAKE IT STICK, it is mentioned that  retrieval of knowledge you have learned is very necessary and crucial for  effective learning and  achieving long term memory.  The more efforts you have made to retrieve ,the deeper impression it will have on your mind.  So it's better to do interval retrieval than to retrieve immediately.  The best time for retrieval is when forgetting starts. And repetitive retrieval can turn the knowledge into long term memory by activating it in your mind time and time again.

This is the importance of retrieval for learning. In fact, it coincides with the knowledge Tony Buzan mentioned in his book USE YOUR HEAD. When you are learning something new, it is like exploring a new way in the forest. Because there is no way or even a narrow path, for the first time, it would be very tough for you, but become easier for the second and third time, and gradually a wider road will be walked out after several times. It's the same with learning. When you are facing a new concept you have never met before, it will take you a lot more time to understand and absorb it, however, when you review it for the second and third time, you will become more and more confident in it. Gradually a learning pathway will be formed in your mind. Moreover, it is suggested to review it after a while, but not immediately, because it 's like there are more weeds or barriers on your way now after a period of time, it will take you more time and energy to get rid of these weeds. When you finish doing this, your ability of exploring will be significantly harnessed. As for learning, if you review intervally, more efforts will be needed to do it and thus your learning ability will be also dramatically enhanced which will provoke the widening of the learning pathways in your mind.
